Realization of Arbitrary Gauge Fields via Symmetry-Protected Zero Modes
J. X. Dai, Bingbing Wang, Jiangzi Chen +2
Gauge fields are fundamental to modern physics, but prescribed gauge configurations are often difficult to implement in artificial systems. Here, we present a general scheme for re…

Symmetry's Real Topology
J. X. Dai, Y. X. Zhao
Symmetry-protected topological phases have been a central theme in condensed matter physics and beyond over the past two decades. Most efforts have focused on topological classific…

Asymmetric real topology of conduction and valence bands
J. X. Dai, Chen Zhang, Y. X. Zhao
Previously, it was believed that conduction and valence bands exhibit a symmetry: They possess opposite topological invariants (e.g., the Chern numbers of conduction and valence ba…
