Floquet topological insulators for sound

R Fleury, AB Khanikaev, A Alu - Nature communications, 2016 - nature.com
The unique conduction properties of condensed matter systems with topological order have
recently inspired a quest for the similar effects in classical wave phenomena. Acoustic …

Topological acoustic polaritons: robust sound manipulation at the subwavelength scale

S Yves, R Fleury, F Lemoult, M Fink… - New Journal of …, 2017 - iopscience.iop.org
Topological insulators, a hallmark of condensed matter physics, have recently reached the
classical realm of acoustic waves. A remarkable property of time-reversal invariant …

Self-induced topological transitions and edge states supported by nonlinear staggered potentials

Y Hadad, AB Khanikaev, A Alu - Physical Review B, 2016 - APS
The canonical Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) array is one of the basic geometries that have
spurred significant interest in topological band-gap modes. Here, we show that the judicious …

Fractonic superfluids

JK Yuan, SA Chen, P Ye - Physical Review Research, 2020 - APS

moments are conserved quantities. In this work, both microscopic model and long …

Bulk-boundary correspondence in (3+ 1)-dimensional topological phases

X Chen, A Tiwari, S Ryu - Physical Review B, 2016 - APS
We discuss (2+ 1)-dimensional gapless surface theories of bulk (3+ 1)-dimensional
topological phases, such as the BF theory at level K, and its generalization. In particular, we …

Universal features of higher-form symmetries at phase transitions

XC Wu, CM Jian, C Xu - SciPost Physics, 2021 - scipost.org
We investigate the behavior of higher-form symmetries at various quantum phase
transitions. We consider discrete 1-form symmetries, which can be either part of the …

Fractonic superfluids. II. Condensing subdimensional particles

SA Chen, JK Yuan, P Ye - Physical Review Research, 2021 - APS
As a series of work about “fractonic superfluids,” in this paper, we develop an exotic fractonic
superfluid phase in d-dimensional space where subdimensional particles—their mobility is …

Bosonic integer quantum hall effect in an interacting lattice model

YC He, S Bhattacharjee, R Moessner, F Pollmann - Physical review letters, 2015 - APS
We study a bosonic model with correlated hop** on a honeycomb lattice, and show that its
ground state is a bosonic integer quantum Hall (BIQH) phase, a prominent example of a …

Quantum 4d Yang-Mills theory and time-reversal symmetric 5d higher-gauge topological field theory

We explore various 4d Yang-Mills gauge theories (YM) living as boundary conditions of 5d
gapped short-/long-range entangled (SRE/LRE) topological states. Specifically, we explore …
