Revisiting flat bands and localization

Revisiting flat bands and localization

Flat bands cannot be accidental. Physically, it implies that the itinerancy of the system is not sufficient. Formal reasons are given by a molecular orbital (MO) representation which we are proposing....

Kekule ordering and zero modes with disorder

Kekule ordering and zero modes with disorder

Zero modes of chiral symmetric systems are stable as for symmetry preserving disorder. On a honeycomb lattice with Kekule ordering, we have demonstrated this stabilities numerically. It has been pubis...

Machine learning for mirror skin effects

Machine learning for mirror skin effects

Robustness of the mirror skin effects against for randomness breaking the symmetry is demonstrated by machine learning. The letter has been published in J. Phys. Soc. Jpn. 90, 053703 (2021) by Hiromu ...

Diffusion as a new platform of bulk-edge correspondence

Diffusion as a new platform of bulk-edge correspondence

Diffusion in non-equilibrium phenomena is typical and universal. Any unbalance away from the equilibrium is always/necessarily relaxed to the steady state. Here non-uniform (periodic) modulation of th...

Detecting non-trivial topology without any boundary

Detecting non-trivial topology without any boundary

As for topological phases, bulk is usually hidden in the sense that non trivial topological numbers of the bulk are hardly observed directly by standard experiments. Then observation of edge states re...

Flat Band Quantum Scar

Flat Band Quantum Scar

Quantum scar is atypical and behaves exceptionally as for the ETH (eigenstate thermalization hypothesis) although the system itself is non-integrable. We have constructed various such quantum scars ba...

Interaction induced itinerancy and bulk-edge correspondence

Interaction induced itinerancy and bulk-edge correspondence

Bosonic particle pair of  the Creutz ladder become itinerant due to particle-particle interaction although its one particle spectrum is completely flat implying localized in real space. Then modulatio...

Non trivial topology without boudaries in quantum dynamics

Topologically non trivial bulk is mostly hidden in the sense that topological invariants of the bulk are hardly observed directly by experiments. Here we have demonstrated quantum dynamics of a locali...
