gauge theories coupled to topological fermions: QED with a quantum-mechanical angle
G. Magnifico, D. Vodola, E. Ercolessi +3
We present a detailed study of the topological Schwinger model [Phys. Rev. D 99, 014503 (2019)], which describes (1+1) quantum electrodynamics of an Abelian gauge field coup…
Diagnosing Potts criticality and two-stage melting in one-dimensional hard-boson models
Giuliano Giudici, Adriano Angelone, Giuseppe Magnifico +4
We investigate a model of hard-core bosons with infinitely repulsive nearest- and next-nearest-neighbor interactions in one dimension, introduced by Fendley, Sengupta and Sachdev i…
Symmetry-protected topological phases in lattice gauge theories: topological QED
G. Magnifico, D. Vodola, E. Ercolessi +3
The interplay of symmetry, topology, and many-body effects in the classification of possible phases of matter poses a formidable challenge that is attracting great attention in con…
