We calculate the phase diagram of a model for topological superconducting wires with local s-wave pairing, spin-orbit coupling λ and magnetic field B - with arbitrary orientations. This model is a generalized lattice version ...

We investigate the origins and implications of the duality between topological insulators and topological superconductors in three and four spacetime dimensions. In the latter, the duality transformation can be made at the ...

The search of new means of generating and controlling topological states of matter is at the front of many joint efforts, including band-gap engineering by doping and light-induced topological states. Most of our understading, ...

Matter under different equilibrium conditions of pressure and temperature exhibits different states such as solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. Exotic states of matter, such as Bose-Einstein condensates, superfluidity, chiral ...

The Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model of polyacetylene is a paradigmatic Hamiltonian exhibiting nontrivial edge states. By using Floquet theory we study how the spectrum of this one-dimensional topological insulator is affected ...
