Topology shared between classical metamaterials and interacting superconductors
Po-Wei Lo, Chao-Ming Jian, Michael J Lawler
Supersymmetry has been studied at a linear level between normal modes of metamaterials described by rigidity matrices and non-interacting quantum Hamiltonians. The connection betwe…

The fate of topological frustration in quantum spin ladders and generalizations
Po-Wei Lo, Michael J. Lawler
Topological frustration (or topological mechanics) is the existence of classical zero modes that are robust to many but not all distortions of the Hamiltonian. It arises naturally…
