A strange metal in a bosonic system

Chao Yang, Haiwen Liu, Yi Liu +10

Fermi liquid theory forms the basis for our understanding of the majority of metals, which is manifested in the description of transport properties that the electrical resistivity…

Quench dynamics of Hopf insulators

Haiping Hu, Chao Yang, Erhai Zhao

Hopf insulators are exotic topological states of matter outside the standard ten-fold way classification based on discrete symmetries. Its topology is captured by an integer invari…

Signature of nonequilibrium quantum phase transition in the long time average of Loschmidt echo

Bozhen Zhou, Chao Yang, Shu Chen

We unveil the role of the long time average of Loschmidt echo in the characterization of nonequilibrium quantum phase transitions by studying sudden quench processes across quantum…

Interplay of non-Hermitian skin effects and Anderson localization in non-reciprocal quasiperiodic lattices

Hui Jiang, Li-Jun Lang, Chao Yang +2

Non-Hermiticity from non-reciprocal hoppings has been shown recently to demonstrate the non-Hermitian skin effect (NHSE) under open boundary conditions (OBCs). Here we study the in…

Topological invariants and phase diagrams for one-dimensional two-band non-Hermitian systems without chiral symmetry

Hui Jiang, Chao Yang, Shu Chen

We study topological properties of one-dimensional non-Hermitian systems without chiral symmetry and give phase diagrams characterized by topological invariants and $ν_{total…

Observation of dynamical quantum phase transition by a superconducting qubit simulation

Xue-Yi Guo, Chao Yang, Yu Zeng +7

A dynamical quantum phase transition can occur during time evolution of sudden quenched quantum systems across a phase transition. It corresponds to the nonanalytic behavior at a c…

Dynamical topological invariant after a quantum quench

Chao Yang, Linhu Li, Shu Chen

We show how to define a dynamical topological invariant for general one-dimensional topological systems after a quantum quench. Focusing on two-band topological insulators, we demo…

Dynamical signature of localization-delocalization transition in one-dimensional incommensurate lattice

Chao Yang, Yucheng Wang, Pei Wang +2

We investigate the quench dynamics of a one-dimensional incommensurate lattice described by the Aubry-André model by a sudden change of the strength of incommensurate potential …

Topological invariants for phase transition points of one-dimensional topological systems

Linhu Li, Chao Yang, Shu Chen

We study topological properties of phase transition points of two topologically non-trivial classes (D and DIII) in one dimension by assigning a Berry phase defined…

Characterization of symmetry-protected topological phases in polymerized models by trajectories of Majorana stars

Chao Yang, Huaiming Guo, Li-Bin Fu +1

By using Majorana's stellar representation, we give a clear geometrical interpretation of the topological phases of inversion-symmetric polymerized models by mapping the Bloch stat…
