Stability of topological wall defects on spheres with n-atic order

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2020
Topological point defects on orientationally ordered spheres and on deformable fluid vesicles have been investigated, partly motivated by their potential applications in creating superatoms with directional bonds through functionalization of the “bald ...

Topological defects and cosmology [PDF]

open access: yesPramana, 1998
Many particle physics models of matter admit solutions corresponding to stable or long-lived topological defects. In the context of standard cosmology it is then unavoidable that such defects will form during phase transitions in the very early Universe.

Correlations and screening of topological charges in Gaussian random fields [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Two-point topological charge correlation functions of several types of geometric singularity in Gaussian random fields are calculated explicitly, using a general scheme: zeros of n-dimensional random vectors, signed by the sign of their Jacobian ...

Topological state transitions in electromagnetic topological defects

open access: yes, 2023
The recent emergence of electromagnetic topological defects has attracted wide interest in fields from topological photonics to deep-subwavelength light-mater interactions. Previously, much of the research has focused on constructing specific topological

Defects in the 3-dimensional toric code model form a braided fusion 2-category

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2020
It was well known that there are e-particles and m-strings in the 3-dimensional (spatial dimension) toric code model, which realizes the 3-dimensional ℤ2 topological order.

Aspects of Topological String Theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Two aspects of the topological string and its applications are considered in this thesis. Firstly, non-perturbative contributions to the OSV conjecture relating four-dimensional extremal black holes and the closed topological string partition function ...

Topological States of Matter [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
My research program is focused on the study of elastic deformation and topological defects in two materials: graphene and topological insulators. In both systems at low energies the electrons have a nearly linear spectrum, i.e.

Extended topological group structure due to average reflection symmetry

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2015
We extend the single-particle topological classification of insulators and superconductors to include systems in which disorder preserves average reflection symmetry.

Entanglement entropy in integrable field theories with line defects. Part I. Topological defect

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2017
In this paper and a companion one [1], we study the effect of integrable line defects on entanglement entropy in massive integrable field theories in 1+1 dimensions. The current paper focuses on topological defects that are purely transmissive. Using the
