Locality of topological dynamics in Chern insulators
SciPost PhysicsA system having macroscopic patches in different topological phases has no well-defined global topological invariant. To treat such a case, the quantities labeling different areas of the sample according to their topological state are used, dubbed local ...

Complete factorization in minimal N=4 $$ \mathcal{N}=4 $$ Chern-Simons-matter theory
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018 We investigate an N=4UNk×UN+M−k $$ \mathcal{N} = 4\;\mathrm{U}{(N)}_k\times \mathrm{U}{\left(N+M\right)}_{-k} $$ Chern-Simons theory coupled to one bifundamental hypermultiplet by employing its partition function, which is given by 2N + M dimensional ...

Diverse Landscape of Tunable Magnetic, Topological, and Ferroelectric States in 2D Ti3Se3Te2
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Ti3Se3Te2 emerges as a multifunctional 2D van der Waals platform. The monolayer is a dynamically stable ferromagnetic quantum anomalous Hall insulator. In bilayers, two stacking configurations yield distinct phases: AA‐stacking hosts an altermagnetic quantum spin Hall insulator, while AA′‐stacking exhibits three‐state in‐plane ferroelectricity ...

Corrigendum to ``Chern connection of a pseudo-Finsler metric as a family of affine connections" [PDF]
Publicationes Mathematicae Debrecen, 2014 In this note, we give the correct statements of [2,Proposition 3.3 and Theorem 3.4] and a formula of the Chern curvature in terms of the curvature tensor $R^V$ of the affine connection $\nabla^V$ and the Chern tensor $P$.

On exotic consistent anomalies in (1+1)$d$: A ghost story
SciPost Physics, 2021 We revisit 't Hooft anomalies in (1+1)$d$ non-spin quantum field theory, starting from the consistency and locality conditions, and find that consistent U(1) and gravitational anomalies cannot always be canceled by properly quantized (2+1)$d$ classical ...

Symmetric space λ-model exchange algebra from 4d holomorphic Chern-Simons theory
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 We derive, within the Hamiltonian formalism, the classical exchange algebra of a lambda deformed string sigma model in a symmetric space directly from a 4d holomorphic Chern-Simons theory.

Cosmological time and the constants of nature
Physics Letters B, 2021 We propose that cosmological time is effectively the conjugate of the constants of nature. Different definitions of time arise, with the most relevant related to the constant controlling the dynamics in each epoch. The Hamiltonian constraint then becomes

Electric Field‐Induced Hole‐ and Electron‐Type Flat Bands in Twisted Double Bilayer Graphene
Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.The electronic structure of twisted double bilayer graphene is visualized using angle‐resolved photoemission spectroscopy with micrometer spatial resolution at twists of 3.1∘$^\circ$ and 6.0∘$^\circ$ as a function of gate voltage. Tunable hybridization effects and flat band formation occurs between valence and conduction band states due to a finite ...
