Quantized spin Hall effect in Helium three-A and other p-wave paired Fermi systems
Jun Goryo, Mahito Kohmoto, Yong-Shi Wu
In this paper we propose the quantized spin Hall effect (SHE) in the vortex state of a rotating p-wave paired Fermi system in an inhomogeneous magnetic field and in a weak periodic…
Distribution of spectral-flow gaps in the Rashba model with disorder: a new universality
Daijiro Tobe, Mahito Kohmoto, Masatoshi Sato +1
We report a study of disordered electron systems with spin-orbit coupling on a cylinder using methods of random matrix ensembles. With a threading flux turned on, the single partic…
BPS R-balls in N=4 SYM on R X S^3, Quantum Hall Analogy and AdS/CFT Holography
Jian Dai, Xiao-Jun Wang, Yong-Shi Wu
In this paper, we propose a new approach to study the BPS dynamics in N=4 supersymmetric U(N) Yang-Mills theory on R X S^3, in order to better understand the emergence of gravity i…
A General Theorem Relating the Bulk Topological Number to Edge States in Two-dimensional Insulators
Xiao-Liang Qi, Yong-Shi Wu, Shou-Cheng Zhang
We prove a general theorem on the relation between the bulk topological quantum number and the edge states in two dimensional insulators. It is shown that whenever there is a topol…
Braid Group, Gauge Invariance and Topological Order
Masatoshi Sato, Mahito Kohmoto, Yong-Shi Wu
Topological order in two-dimensional systems is studied by combining the braid group formalism with a gauge invariance analysis. We show that flux insertions (or large gauge transf…
