Fate of Quantum Anomalies for 1d lattice chiral fermion with a simple non-Hermitian Hamiltonian

Wei-Qiang Chen, Yong-Shi Wu, Wenjie Xi +2

It is generally believed that the 1+1D model for a single chiral fermion does not exist by itself alone on lattice. The obstruction to such a lattice realization is the failure to…

Correspondence between bulk entanglement and boundary excitation spectra in 2d gapped topological phases

Zhu-Xi Luo, Brendan G. Pankovich, Yuting Hu +1

We study the correspondence between boundary spectrum of non-chiral topological orders on an open manifold with gapped boundaries and the entanglement spectrum in the…

Linking Entanglement and Discrete Anomaly

Ling-Yan Hung, Yong-Shi Wu, Yang Zhou

In Chern-Simons theory, there is a discrete one-form symmetry, whose symmetry group is isomorphic to the center of the gauge group. We study the 't Hooft anomaly associated to…

Kac-Moody instantons in space-time foam as an alternative solution to the black hole information paradox

Andrea Addazi, Pisin Chen, Antonino Marciano +1

Hawking, Perry and Strominger recently invoked BMS symmetry charges in an attempt to resolve the black hole information paradox. Here we propose an alternative scenario that is bas…

From effective Hamiltonian to anomaly inflow in topological orders with boundaries

Yuting Hu, Yidun Wan, Yong-Shi Wu

Whether two boundary conditions of a two-dimensional topological order can be continuously connected without a phase transition in between remains a challenging question. We tackle…

Boundary Hamiltonian theory for gapped topological phases on an open surface

Yuting Hu, Zhu-Xi Luo, Ren Pankovich +2

In this paper we propose a Hamiltonian approach to gapped topological phases on an open surface with boundary. Our setting is an extension of the Levin-Wen model to a 2d graph on t…
