Topological Invariants for Quantum Quench Dynamics from Unitary Evolution. [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2019
Recent experiments began to explore the topological properties of quench dynamics, i.e., the time evolution following a sudden change in the Hamiltonian, via tomography of quantum gases in optical lattices.

A TORSIONAL TOPOLOGICAL INVARIANT [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Modern Physics A, 2007
Curvature and torsion are the two tensors characterizing a general Riemannian space–time. In Einstein's general theory of gravitation, with torsion postulated to vanish and the affine connection identified to the Christoffel symbol, only the curvature tensor plays the central role.

Entanglement topological invariants for one-dimensional topological superconductors [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical review B, 2019
Entanglement is known to serve as an order parameter for true topological order in two-dimensional systems. We show how entanglement of disconnected partitions defines topological invariants for one-dimensional topological superconductors.

Anisotropic magnetic responses of topological crystalline superconductors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017

Decorated TQFTs and their Hilbert spaces

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2023
We discuss topological quantum field theories that compute topological invariants which depend on additional structures (or decorations) on three-manifolds.

Topological invariants and phase diagrams for one-dimensional two-band non-Hermitian systems without chiral symmetry [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review A, 2018
We study topological properties of one-dimensional non-Hermitian systems without chiral symmetry and give phase diagrams characterized by topological invariants $\nu_E$ and $\nu_{total}$, associated with complex energy vorticity and summation of Berry ...

Topological Insulators with Inversion Symmetry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Topological insulators are materials with a bulk excitation gap generated by the spin orbit interaction, and which are different from conventional insulators.

Detecting Topological Invariants in Nonunitary Discrete-Time Quantum Walks. [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2017
We report the experimental detection of bulk topological invariants in nonunitary discrete-time quantum walks with single photons. The nonunitarity of the quantum dynamics is enforced by periodically performing partial measurements on the polarization of

Experimental classification of quenched quantum walks by dynamical Chern number

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2019
Topology has rapidly become one of the central topics in modern physics because of its ability to explain various interesting phenomena, especially in condensed matter physics.

Invariant topological complexity [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the London Mathematical Society, 2014
The topological complexity of a space \(X,\) denoted as \(\text{TC}(X)\), is defined as the smallest nonnegative integer \(k\) such that \(X\times X\) admits a cover constituted by \(k\) open subsets \(U_1,\dots,U_k\) such that for each \(i\) there is a local homotopy section \(s_i:U_i\rightarrow PX\) of the free path fibration \(\pi :PX\rightarrow X ...
