Topological Materials and Related Applications
This review covers topological materials—including topological insulators, quantum valley Hall and quantum spin Hall insulators, and topological Weyl and Dirac semimetals—as well as their most recent advancements in fields such as spintronics, electronics, photonics, thermoelectrics, and catalysis.

Fivebranes and 3-manifold homology
Motivated by physical constructions of homological knot invariants, we study their analogs for closed 3-manifolds. We show that fivebrane compactifications provide a universal description of various old and new homological invariants of 3-manifolds.

Non-self-dual Yang-Mills connections with nonzero Chern number [PDF]
We prove the existence of non-self-dual Yang-Mills connections on SU(2) bundles over the four-sphere with standard Riemannian metric. In particular, our proof covers all bundles with second Chern number \(C_ 2\neq \pm 1.\) Existence on the trivial bundle \(C_ 2=0\) was previously established by \textit{L. M. Sibner}, \textit{R. J.

Berry Phases, Quantum Phase Transitions and Chern Numbers
We study the relation between Chern numbers and Quantum Phase Transitions (QPT) in the XY spin-chain model. By coupling the spin chain to a single spin, it is possible to study topological invariants associated to the coupling Hamiltonian.

Symmetric Space Cartan Connections and Gravity in Three and Four Dimensions
Einstein gravity in both 3 and 4 dimensions, as well as some interesting generalizations, can be written as gauge theories in which the connection is a Cartan connection for geometry modeled on a symmetric space.

We study the expectation value of a nonplanar Wilson graph operator in SL(2,C) Chern–Simons theory on S3. In particular we analyze its asymptotic behavior in the double-scaling limit in which both the representation labels and the Chern–Simons coupling ...

Abstract Infantile epilepsy spasms syndrome (IESS), formerly known as infantile spasms or West Syndrome, is a severe epilepsy syndrome affecting about 3 in 10,000 newborns in the United States. Characterized by clusters of epileptic spasms, interictal hypsarrhythmia, and developmental delays, IESS has diverse causes, including structural‐metabolic ...

Non-Abelian fractional quantum Hall states and chiral coset conformal field theories
We propose an effective Lagrangian for the low energy theory of the Pfaffian states of the fractional quantum Hall effect in the bulk in terms of non-Abelian Chern-Simons (CS) actions.

A comment on metric vs metric-affine gravity
We consider the sum of the Einstein-Hilbert action and a Pontryagin density (PD) in arbitrary even dimension D≥4. All curvatures are functions of independent affine (torsionless) connections only.
