Topological flat band models and fractional Chern insulators

EJ Bergholtz, Z Liu - International Journal of Modern Physics B, 2013 - World Scientific
Topological insulators and their intriguing edge states can be understood in a single-particle
picture and can as such be exhaustively classified. Interactions significantly complicate this …

Recent developments in fractional Chern insulators

Z Liu, EJ Bergholtz - arxiv preprint arxiv:2208.08449, 2022 - arxiv.org
Fractional Chern insulators (FCIs) are lattice generalizations of the conventional fractional
quantum Hall effect (FQHE) in two-dimensional (2D) electron gases. They typically arise in a …

Bulk-boundary correspondence in a non-Hermitian system in one dimension with chiral inversion symmetry

L **, Z Song - Physical Review B, 2019 - APS
Asymmetric coupling amplitudes effectively create an imaginary gauge field, which induces
a non-Hermitian Aharonov-Bohm (AB) effect. Nonzero imaginary magnetic flux invalidates …
