Fubini-Study metric and topological properties of flat band electronic states: the case of an atomic chain with orbitals
arXiv:2303.02126 · doi:10.1088/1361-648X/acfbd1
Abstract
The topological properties of the flat band states of a one-electron Hamiltonian that describes a chain of atoms with orbitals are explored. This model is mapped onto a Kitaev-Creutz type model, providing a useful framework to understand the topology through a nontrivial winding number and the geometry introduced by the \textit{Fubini-Study (FS)} metric. This metric allows us to distinguish between pure states of systems with the same topology and thus provides a suitable tool for obtaining the fingerprint of flat bands. Moreover, it provides an appealing geometrical picture for describing flat bands as it can be associated with a local conformal transformation over circles in a complex plane. In addition, the presented model allows us to relate the topology with the formation of Compact Localized States (CLS) and pseudo-Bogoliubov modes. Also, the properties of the squared Hamiltonian are investigated in order to provide a better understanding of the localization properties and the spectrum. The presented model is equivalent to two coupled SSH chains under a change of basis.
