Topological quantum critical points in the extended Bose-Hubbard model

J Fraxanet, D González-Cuadra, T Pfau… - Physical Review Letters, 2022 - APS
The combination of topology and quantum criticality can give rise to an exotic mix of
counterintuitive effects. Here, we show that unexpected topological properties take place in …

[HTML][HTML] Stabilization of Hubbard-Thouless pumps through nonlocal fermionic repulsion

J Argüello-Luengo, MJ Mark, F Ferlaino… - Quantum, 2024 - quantum-journal.org
Thouless pumping represents a powerful concept to probe quantized topological invariants
in quantum systems. We explore this mechanism in a generalized Rice-Mele Fermi-Hubbard …
