Topological Transversality Holds in All Dimensions
Moving one submanifold to be transverse to another is a basic and essential operation in the study of manifolds. In the differentiate and PL categories the proof that this operation is always possible is straightforward, and one of the first objectives in developments of the subject. In the topological category it is more difficult; the first progress came in the profound work of Kirby and Sieb...
متن کاملThe Alexander-orbach Conjecture Holds in High Dimensions
We examine the incipient infinite cluster (IIC) of critical percolation in regimes where mean-field behavior have been established, namely when the dimension d is large enough or when d > 6 and the lattice is sufficiently spread out. We find that random walk on the IIC exhibits anomalous diffusion with the spectral dimension ds = 4 3 , that is, pt(x, x) = t . This establishes a conjecture of Al...
متن کاملTopological Matter in Two Dimensions
Topological quantum field theories containing matter fields are constructed by twisting N = 2 supersymmetric quantum field theories. It is shown that N = 2 chiral (antichiral) multiplets lead to topological sigma models while N = 2 twisted chiral (twisted antichiral) multiplets lead to Landau-Ginzburg type topological quantum field theories. In addition, topological gravity in two dimensions is...
متن کاملTopological insulators in three dimensions.
We study three-dimensional generalizations of the quantum spin Hall (QSH) effect. Unlike two dimensions, where a single Z2 topological invariant governs the effect, in three dimensions there are 4 invariants distinguishing 16 phases with two general classes: weak (WTI) and strong (STI) topological insulators. The WTI are like layered 2D QSH states, but are destroyed by disorder. The STI are rob...
متن کاملTopological Eigenfunctions in Two Dimensions
An ion moving in a constant magnetic field is considered as the generic example of two-dimensional topological (Chern-Simons) theory. The eigenfunctions for the generic particle are determined by solving Schrödinger’s equation in the secular and non-secular forms of the theory, corresponding to the inclusion and non-inclusion respectively in the Lagrangian of the particle’s kinetic energy. A no...
