Dynamical buildup of a quantized hall response from nontopological states

Y Hu, P Zoller, JC Budich - Physical review letters, 2016‏ - APS
We consider a two-dimensional system initialized in a topologically trivial state before its
Hamiltonian is ramped through a phase transition into a Chern insulator regime. This …
