Deformation and Stability of Surface States in Dirac semimetals
Mehdi Kargarian, Yuan-Ming Lu, Mohit Randeria
The unusual surface states of topological semimetals have attracted a lot of attention. Recently, we showed [PNAS 113, 8648 (2016)] that for a Dirac semimetal (DSM) arising from ba…
Lieb-Schultz-Mattis theorems for symmetry protected topological phases
Yuan-Ming Lu
The Lieb-Schultz-Mattis (LSM) theorem and its descendants represent a class of powerful no-go theorems that rule out any short-range-entangled (SRE) symmetric ground state irrespec…
Deciphering the nonlocal entanglement entropy of fracton topological orders
Bowen Shi, Yuan-Ming Lu
The ground states of topological orders condense extended objects and support topological excitations. This nontrivial property leads to nonzero topological entanglement entropy $S…
Filling-enforced constraint on the quantized Hall conductivity on a periodic lattice
Yuan-Ming Lu, Ying Ran, Masaki Oshikawa
We discuss quantum Hall effects in a gapped insulator on a periodic two-dimensional lattice. We derive a universal relation among the the quantized Hall conductivity, and charge an…
Symmetry-enforced quantum spin Hall insulators in -flux models
Jiaxin Wu, Tin-Lun Ho, Yuan-Ming Lu
We prove a Lieb-Schultz-Mattis theorem for the quantum spin Hall effect (QSHE) in two-dimensional -flux models. In the presence of time reversal, charge conservation and…
Classification and surface anomaly of glide symmetry protected topological phases in three dimensions
Fuyan Lu, Bowen Shi, Yuan-Ming Lu
We study glide protected topological (GSPT) phases of interacting bosons and fermions in three spatial dimensions certain on-site symmetries. They are crystalline SPT phases, which…
