Propagation in media as a probe for topological properties
Samuel Mugel
The central goal of this thesis is to develop methods to experimentally study topological phases. We do so by applying the powerful toolbox of quantum simulation techniques with co…

Measuring Chern numbers in Hofstadter strips
Samuel Mugel, Alexandre Dauphin, Pietro Massignan +4
Topologically non-trivial Hamiltonians with periodic boundary conditions are characterized by strictly quantized invariants. Open questions and fundamental challenges concern their…

Topological bound states of a quantum walk with cold atoms
Samuel Mugel, Alessio Celi, Pietro Massignan +3
We suggest a method for engineering a quantum walk, with cold atoms as walkers, which presents topologically non-trivial properties. We derive the phase diagram, and show that we a…
