Theory of criticality-enabled symmetry breaking in a class of 1+1D systems
E. S. Andriyakhina, A. S. Shankar, T. Senthil +1
We develop an analytic theory of the recently proposed symmetry breaking at interacting 1+1D Lifshitz quantum critical points. The low-energy theory contains two compact fie…

We revisit the charge-1/3 anyon fluid obtained by doping the Jain fractional Chern insulator (FCI). In the standard composite fermion description, the doped anyons fractio…
Non-Abelian topological superconductivity from melting Abelian fractional Chern insulators
Zhengyan Darius Shi, T. Senthil
Fractional Chern insulators (FCI) are exotic phases of matter realized at partial filling of a Chern band that host fractionally charged anyon excitations. Recent numerical studies…

Fractionalization as an alternate to charge ordering in electronic insulators
Seth Musser, Meng Cheng, T. Senthil
Incompressible insulating phases of electronic systems at partial filling of a lattice are often associated with charge ordering that breaks lattice symmetry. The resulting phases…
Dirac spin liquid as an "unnecessary" quantum critical point on square lattice antiferromagnets
