Measuring the distance between quantum many-body wave functions

Xiao Chen, Tianci Zhou, Cenke Xu

We study the distance of two wave functions under chaotic time evolution. The two initial states are differed only by a local perturbation. To be entitled "chaos" the distance shou…

Topological Quadrupolar Semimetals

Mao Lin, Taylor L. Hughes

In this work we predict several new types of topological semimetals that exhibit a bulk quadrupole moment. These semimetals are modeled with a 3D extension of the 2D quadrupole top…

Absence of Luttinger's theorem for fermions with power-law Green functions

Kridsanaphong Limtragool, Zhidong Leong, Philip W. Phillips

We investigate the validity of Luttinger's theorem (or Luttinger sum rule) in two scale-invariant fermionic models. We find that, in general, Luttinger's theorem does not hold in a…

Interplay between short-range correlated disorder and Coulomb interaction in nodal-line semimetals

Yuxuan Wang, Rahul M. Nandkishore

In nodal-line semimetals, Coulomb interactions and short-range correlated disorder are both marginal perturbations to the clean non-interacting Hamiltonian. We analyze their interp…
