Bulk-boundary correspondence of topological insulators from their Green's functions
Andrew M. Essin, Victor Gurarie
Topological insulators are noninteracting, gapped fermionic systems which have gapless boundary excitations. They are characterized by topological invariants, which can be written…
Antiferromagnetic topological insulators
Roger S. K. Mong, Andrew M. Essin, Joel E. Moore
We consider antiferromagnets breaking both time-reversal (Theta) and a primitive lattice translational symmetry (T) of a crystal but preserving the combination S = Theta T. The S s…
Orbital magnetoelectric coupling in band insulators
Andrew M. Essin, Ari M. Turner, Joel E. Moore +1
Magnetoelectric responses are a fundamental characteristic of materials that break time-reversal and inversion symmetries (notably multiferroics) and, remarkably, of "topological i…
Magnetoelectric polarizability and axion electrodynamics in crystalline insulators
Andrew M. Essin, Joel E. Moore, David Vanderbilt
The orbital motion of electrons in a three-dimensional solid can generate a pseudoscalar magnetoelectric coupling , a fact we derive for the single-particle case using a recent…
Topological insulators beyond the Brillouin zone via Chern parity
Andrew M. Essin, J. E. Moore
The topological insulator is an electronic phase stabilized by spin-orbit coupling that supports propagating edge states and is not adiabatically connected to the ordinary insulato…
