Band Topology of Insulators via the Entanglement Spectrum
Ari M. Turner, Yi Zhang, Ashvin Vishwanath
How do we uniquely identify a quantum phase, given its ground state wave-function? This is a key question for many body theory especially when we consider phases like topological i…

Topological insulators in three dimensions from spontaneous symmetry breaking
Yi Zhang, Ying Ran, Ashvin Vishwanath
We study three dimensional systems where strong repulsion leads to an insulating state via spontaneously generated spin-orbit interactions. We discuss a microscopic model where the…
