G Jiang, ZY Chen, SJ Yue, WB Rui, XM Zhu, SA Yang… - Physical Review B, 2024 - APS
In the field of symmetry-protected topological phases, a common wisdom is that the
symmetries may fix the nontrivial topological classifications, but they alone cannot determine …

Real-projective-plane hybrid-order topological insulator realized in phononic crystals

P Lai, J Wu, Z Pu, Q Zhou, J Lu, H Liu, W Deng… - Physical Review …, 2024 - APS
The manifold of the fundamental domain of the Brillouin zone is always considered to be a
torus. However, under the synthetic gauge field, the Brillouin manifold can be modified by …

gauge field and topological chirality from Umklapp scattering in twisted graphite

C Chen, XT Zeng, W Yao - arXiv preprint arXiv:2406.08355, 2024 - arxiv.org
