Topological Order Parameters for Interacting Topological Insulators

arXiv:1004.4229 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.105.256803

Abstract

We propose a topological order parameter for interacting topological insulators, expressed in terms of the full Green's functions of the interacting system. We show that it is exactly quantized for a time reversal invariant topological insulator, and it can be experimentally measured through the topological magneto-electric effect. This topological order parameter can be applied to both interacting and disordered systems, and used for determining their phase diagrams.
