Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Feitong Jin, Si Jiang, Xuhao Zhu, Zehang Bao, Fanhao Shen | Summary: Symmetry-protected topological phases cannot be described by any local order parameter and are beyond the conventional symmetry-breaking paradigm for understanding quantum matter. They are characterized by topological boundary states robust against perturbations that respect the […]
