Bulk Metallic Glasses Deform via Slip Avalanches

James Antonaglia, Wendelin J. Wright, Xiaojun Gu +5

Inelastic deformation of metallic glasses occurs via slip events with avalanche dynamics similar to those of earthquakes. For the first time in these materials, measurements have b…

Classification of Two Dimensional Topological Crystalline Superconductors and Majorana Bound States at Disclinations

Wladimir A. Benalcazar, Jeffrey C. Y. Teo, Taylor L. Hughes

We classify discrete-rotation symmetric topological crystalline superconductors (TCS) in two dimensions and provide the criteria for a zero energy Majorana bound state (MBS) to be…

Swimming at Low Reynolds Number in Fluids with Odd (Hall) Viscosity

Matthew F. Lapa, Taylor L. Hughes

We apply the geometric theory of swimming at low Reynolds number to the study of nearly circular swimmers in two-dimensional fluids with non-vanishing Hall, or "odd", viscosity. Th…

Field Theory of Nematicity in the Spontaneous Quantum Anomalous Hall effect

Yizhi You, Eduardo Fradkin

We derive from a microscopic model the effective theory of nematic order in a system with a spontaneous quantum anomalous Hall effect in two dimensions. Starting with a model of tw…

Ising nematic fluid phase of hard-core dimers on the square lattice

Stefanos Papanikolaou, Daniel Charrier, Eduardo Fradkin

We present a model of classical hard-core dimers on the square lattice that contains an Ising nematic phase in its phase diagram. We consider a model with an attractive interaction…

Diffusive transport in Weyl semimetals

Rudro R. Biswas, Shinsei Ryu

Diffusion, a ubiquitous phenomenon in nature, is a consequence of particle number conservation and locality, in systems with sufficient damping. In this paper we consider diffusive…

Braiding Statistics and Congruent Invariance of Twist Defects in Bosonic Bilayer Fractional Quantum Hall States

Jeffrey C. Y. Teo, Abhishek Roy, Xiao Chen

We describe the braiding statistics of topological twist defects in abelian bosonic bilayer (mmn) fractional quantum Hall (FQH) states, which reduce to the Z_n toric code when m=0.…

Unconventional Fusion and Braiding of Topological Defects in a Lattice Model

Jeffrey C. Y. Teo, Abhishek Roy, Xiao Chen

We demonstrate the semiclassical nature of symmetry twist defects that differ from quantum deconfined anyons in a true topological phase by examining non-abelian crystalline defect…

Quantum Entanglement and Thermal Reduced Density Matrices in Fermion and Spin Systems on Ladders

Xiao Chen, Eduardo Fradkin

Numerical studies of the reduced density matrix of a gapped spin-1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet on a two-leg ladder find that it has the same form as the Gibbs density matrix of a…

Heat transport through quantum Hall edge states: Tunneling versus capacitive coupling to reservoirs

H. Aita, L. Arrachea, C. Naón +1

We study the heat transport along an edge state of a two-dimensional electron gas in the quantum Hall regime, in contact to two reservoirs at different temperatures. We consider tw…

Un-Fermi Liquids: Unparticles in Strongly Correlated Electron Matter

Philip W. Phillips, Brandon W. Langley, Jimmy A. Hutasoit

Since any non-trivial infrared dynamics in strongly correlated electron matter must be controlled by a critical fixed point, we argue that the form of the single-particle propagato…

Inhomogeneous superconducting phases in the frustrated Kondo-Heisenberg chain

Ariel Dobry, Akbar Jaefari, Eduardo Fradkin

We use bosonization and renormalization group methods to determine the ground state phase diagram of a one-dimensional frustrated Kondo-Heisenberg system consisting of a one-dimens…

Majorana zero modes in dislocations of SrRuO

Taylor L. Hughes, Hong Yao, Xiao-Liang Qi

We study the topologically protected Majorana zero modes induced by lattice dislocations in chiral topological superconductors. Dislocations provide a new way to realize Majorana z…
