Topological order in spin nematics from the quantum melting of a disclination lattice

Abstract

The topological defects of Spin($n+1$) nematics in two spatial dimensions, known as disclinations, are characterized by the ${\ensuremath{\pi}}_{1}(\mathbb{R}{P}^{n})={\text{Z}}_{2}$ homotopy group for $n\ensuremath{\ge}2$. We argue that incompressible quantum liquids of disclinations can exist as stable low-temperature phases and host composite quasiparticles which combine a fractional amount of fundamental ${\mathrm{Z}}_{2}$ charge with a unit of topological charge. The fourfold topological ground state degeneracy on a torus admits a fermionic or semionic quasiparticle exchange statistics. The topological nontriviality of these states is visible in the existence of protected gapless edge modes. While the fermionic nematic and gapped ${\mathrm{Z}}_{2}$ spin liquids have equivalent topological orders, they are still thermodynamically distinct due to having different edge modes, in analogy to the topologically nontrivial and trivial states of quantum spin-Hall systems. The analysis proceeds by recasting the ${\mathrm{Z}}_{2}$ gauge theory of spin nematics as a continuum limit theory with a larger gauge structure. Nematic fractionalization parallels that of a quantum Hall liquid, but the large gauge symmetry restores the time-reversal symmetry and restricts the quasiparticle fusion rules and statistics. The conclusions from field theory analysis are complemented with the construction of plausible host microscopic models.

Topological orders of monopoles and hedgehogs: From electronic and magnetic spin-orbit coupling to quarks

Predrag Nikolić

Topological states of matter are, generally, quantum liquids of conserved topological defects. We establish this by constructing and analyzing topological field theories which introduce gauge fields to describe the dynamics of singularities in the original field configurations. Homotopy groups are utilized to identify topologically protected singularities, and the conservation of their protected number is captured by a topological action term that unambiguously obtains from the given set of symmetries. Stable phases of these theories include quantum liquids with emergent massless Abelian and non-Abelian gauge fields, as well as topological orders with long-range quantum entanglement, fractional excitations, boundary modes, and unconventional responses to external perturbations. This paper focuses on the derivation of topological field theories and basic phenomenological characterization of topological orders associated with homotopy groups ${\ensuremath{\pi}}_{n}({S}^{n}), n\ensuremath{\ge}1$. These homotopies govern monopole and hedgehog topological defects in $d=n+1$ dimensions, and enable the generalization of both weakly interacting and fractional quantum Hall liquids of vortices to $d>2$. Hedgehogs have not been in the spotlight so far, but they are particularly important defects of magnetic moments because they can be stimulated in realistic systems with spin-orbit coupling, such as chiral magnets and $d=3$ topological materials. We predict topological orders in systems with $\mathrm{U}(1)\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}\mathrm{Spin}(d)$ symmetry in which fractional electric charge attaches to hedgehogs. Monopoles, the analogous defects of charge or generic U(1) currents, may bind to hedgehogs via Zeeman effect, or effectively emerge in purely magnetic systems. The latter can lead to spin liquids with different topological orders than that of the resonant valence bond spin liquid. Charge fractionalization of quarks in atomic nuclei is also seen as possibly arising from the charge-hedgehog attachment.

Topological aspects of gapped and gapless quantum matter

Pok Man Tam

Quantum phases of matter can be classified into two kinds: gapped or gapless, depending on whether the equilibrium ground state is separated from excited states by a finite energy window or not in the thermodynamic limit. Topology has played an important role in the understanding of both gapped and gapless phases of matter. This thesis uncovers several robust physical properties of both kinds of systems which are largely unexplored before. \\ For gapped systems, we study topological orders, which are characterized by the existence of anyonic quasiparticles with fractional braiding statistics. In the first part, we introduce a family of Abelian quantum Hall insulators, at filling factors $\nu = p/2q$ for bosonic systems and $\nu=p/(p+2q)$ for fermionic systems, with $p$ and $q$ being two coprime integers. These states are termed the \textit{nondiagonal} quantum Hall states, which are constructed in a coupled wire model that exhibits an intimate relation to the nondiagonal conformal field theory and has a constrained pattern of motion for anyons. We unveil a nontrivial interplay between charge symmetry and translation symmetry in this system, and establish the nondiagonal quantum Hall states as symmetry-enriched topological orders. In the second part, we introduce a related model of interacting electrons, but in the absence of a strong quantizing magnetic field, known as the \textit{toric code insulator}. It is constructed from a two-dimensional array of strongly coupled one-dimensional topological superconductors, which feature electron fractionalization and possesses anyonic excitations described by the $\mathbb{Z}_2$ topological order. The motion of anyons is again constrained, and different types of anyons can be related by the translation symmetry. Nondiagonal quantum Hall states and the toric code insulator are convincing examples that itinerant electronic systems can realize interesting symmetry-enriched topological orders.\\ For gapless quantum matters we focus on a particularly familiar class, the metals, but we uncover their topological aspects which were much less appreciated. Every metal is characterized by a Fermi surface of gapless excitations, and the Fermi surface surrounds a manifold in the momentum space, known as the Fermi sea. The ground state of a non-interacting metal, or a Fermi gas, consists of all single-electron states within the Fermi sea. The shape of the Fermi sea has a natural topological characterization in terms of the Euler characteristic $\chi_F$, and a fundamental question that we address in this thesis is: \textbf{does $\chi_F$ imply any robust physical properties in metals, and how can they be measured?} In the third part of the thesis, $\chi_F$ is connected to physically measurable quantities, such as equal-time density-density correlation functions, and multipartite entanglement measures, such as the mutual information. Particularly, for three dimensions, we establish that the 4-partite mutual information is a robust probe of the Fermi sea topology even in the presence of Fermi-liquid interactions. In the last part, we focus on two dimensions, and propose an experimentally accessible platform to probe $\chi_F$ for any two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) that respects time-reversal symmetry. The proposed experimental setup is a Josephson $\pi$-junction, and we predict that the electrical transport in the direction \textit{along} the junction exhibits a current-rectification effect that is controlled by the underlying Fermi sea topology. Due to the relation to Andreev state transport, we term this effect \textit{topological Andreev rectification}. The size of rectification is quantified by a \textit{nonlocal rectified conductance}, which is established to attain an integer quantized value that equals $\chi_F$ (in unit of $e^2/h$). Extensive numerical simulations are performed to support our theoretical proposal, and material platforms such as InAs heterostructures and graphene are identified as promising candidates to demonstrate this effect.

Defect mediated quantum melting of charge ordered insulators

Abijith Krishnan, Ajesh Kumar, T. Senthil

Two-dimensional (2d) electronic systems on a lattice at fractional filling $ν= p/q$ exhibit a competition between charge ordered insulators, called Wigner-Mott insulators (WMIs), at large Coulomb repulsion and Fermi-liquid metals at large electronic kinetic energy. When those two energy scales are roughly equal, insulating states that restore the lattice translation symmetry, which we call quantum charge liquids (QCLs), may emerge. When gapped, these QCLs must exhibit topological order. In this work, we show that the allowed topological ordered phases that are proximate to the WMI strongly depend on the charge ordering in the WMI. In particular, we show that when $q$ is even, no direct transition exists between a WMI with the smallest allowed unit cell size from filling constraints, i.e., the "minimal" WMI, and the topological order with the smallest ground state degeneracy on a torus allowed by filling constraints, i.e., the "minimal" TO. Furthermore, we describe the quantum melting transition of the WMIs to the proximate QCLs in terms of the proliferation of the topological defects of the WMIs. The field theory of this transition in terms of the topological defects reveals their role as precursors to the anyon excitations in the QCLs.

Fractionalization of coset non-invertible symmetry and exotic Hall conductance

Po-Shen Hsin, Ryohei Kobayashi, Carolyn Zhang

We investigate fractionalization of non-invertible symmetry in (2+1)D topological orders. We focus on coset non-invertible symmetries obtained by gauging non-normal subgroups of invertible 0 0 -form symmetries. These symmetries can arise as global symmetries in quantum spin liquids, given by the quotient of the projective symmetry group by a non-normal subgroup as invariant gauge group. We point out that such coset non-invertible symmetries in topological orders can exhibit symmetry fractionalization: each anyon can carry a “fractional charge” under the coset non-invertible symmetry given by a gauge invariant superposition of fractional quantum numbers. We present various examples using field theories and quantum double lattice models, such as fractional quantum Hall systems with charge conjugation symmetry gauged and finite group gauge theory from gauging a non-normal subgroup. They include symmetry enriched S_3 S 3 and O(2) O ( 2 ) gauge theories. We show that such systems have a fractionalized continuous non-invertible coset symmetry and a well-defined electric Hall conductance. The coset symmetry enforces a gapless edge state if the boundary preserves the continuous non-invertible symmetry. We propose a general approach for constructing coset symmetry defects using a “sandwich” construction: non-invertible symmetry defects can generally be constructed from an invertible defect sandwiched by condensation defects. The anomaly free condition for finite coset symmetry is also identified.

Time-reversal and spatial-reflection symmetry localization anomalies in (2+1)-dimensional topological phases of matter

Maissam Barkeshli, Meng Cheng

We study a class of anomalies associated with time-reversal and spatial-reflection symmetry in (2+1)-dimensional bosonic topological phases of matter. In these systems, the topological quantum numbers of the quasiparticles, such as the fusion rules and braiding statistics, possess a ${\mathbb{Z}}_{2}$ symmetry which can be associated with either time reversal (denoted ${\mathbb{Z}}_{2}^{\mathbf{T}})$ or spatial reflections. Under this symmetry, correlation functions of all Wilson loop operators in the low-energy topological quantum field theory (TQFT) are invariant. However, the theories that we study possess a severe anomaly associated with the failure to consistently localize the symmetry action to the quasiparticles, precluding even defining a consistent notion of symmetry fractionalization in such systems. We present simple sufficient conditions which determine when ${\mathbb{Z}}_{2}^{\mathbf{T}}$ symmetry localization anomalies exist in general. We present an infinite series of TQFTs with such anomalies, some examples of which include $\mathrm{USp}{(4)}_{2}$ Chern-Simons (CS) theory and $\mathrm{SO}{(4)}_{4}$ CS theory. The theories that we find with these ${\mathbb{Z}}_{2}^{\mathbf{T}}$ anomalies can all be obtained by gauging the unitary ${\mathbb{Z}}_{2}$ subgroup of a different TQFT with a ${\mathbb{Z}}_{4}^{\mathbf{T}}$ symmetry. We further show that the anomaly can be resolved in several distinct ways: (1) the true symmetry of the theory is ${\mathbb{Z}}_{4}^{\mathbf{T}}$, or (2) the theory can be considered to be a theory of fermions, with ${\mathbf{T}}^{2}={(\ensuremath{-}1)}^{{N}_{f}}$ corresponding to fermion parity. Finally, we demonstrate that theories with the ${\mathbb{Z}}_{2}^{\mathbf{T}}$ localization anomaly can be compatible with ${\mathbb{Z}}_{2}^{\mathbf{T}}$ if they are ``pseudorealized'' at the surface of a (3+1)D symmetry-enriched topological phase. The ``pseudorealization'' refers to the fact that the bulk (3+1)D system is described by a dynamical ${\mathbb{Z}}_{2}$ gauge theory and thus only a subset of the quasiparticles are truly confined to the surface.

Classification of fractional quantum Hall states with spatial symmetries

Naren Manjunath, Maissam Barkeshli

Fractional quantum Hall (FQH) states are examples of symmetry-enriched topological states (SETs): in addition to the intrinsic topological order, which is robust to symmetry breaking, they possess symmetry-protected topological invariants, such as fractional charge of anyons and fractional Hall conductivity. In this paper we develop a comprehensive theory of symmetry-protected topological invariants for FQH states with spatial symmetries, which applies to Abelian and non-Abelian topological states, by using a recently developed framework of $G$-crossed braided tensor categories ($G\times$BTCs) for SETs. We consider systems with $U(1)$ charge conservation, magnetic translational, and spatial rotational symmetries, in the continuum and for all $5$ orientation-preserving crystalline space groups in two dimensions, allowing arbitrary rational magnetic flux per unit cell, and assuming that symmetries do not permute anyons. In the crystalline setting, applicable to fractional Chern insulators and spin liquids, symmetry fractionalization is fully characterized by a generalization to non-Abelian states of the charge, spin, discrete torsion, and area vectors, which specify fractional charge, angular momentum, linear momentum, and fractionalization of the translation algebra for each anyon. The topological response theory contains $9$ terms, which attach charge, linear momentum, and angular momentum to magnetic flux, lattice dislocations, disclinations, corners, and units of area. Using the $G\times$BTC formalism, we derive the formula relating charge filling to the Hall conductivity and flux per unit cell; in the continuum this relates the filling fraction and the Hall conductivity without assuming Galilean invariance. We provide systematic formulas for topological invariants within the $G\times$BTC framework; this gives, for example, a new categorical definition of the Hall conductivity.

The topological defects of Spin(n+1n+1n+1) nematics in two spatial dimensions, known as disclinations, are characterized by the \ensuremathπ1(RPn)=Z2{\ensuremath{\pi}}_{1}(\mathbb{R}{P}^{n})={\text{Z}}_{2}\ensuremathπ1​(RPn)=Z2​ homotopy group for n\ensuremath≥2n\ensuremath{\ge}2n\ensuremath≥2. We argue that incompressible quantum liquids of disclinations can exist as stable low-temperature phases and host composite quasiparticles which combine a fractional amount of fundamental Z2{\mathrm{Z}}_{2}Z2​ charge with a unit of topological charge. The fourfold topological ground state degeneracy on a torus admits a fermionic or semionic quasiparticle exchange statistics.

The analysis proceeds by recasting the Z2{\mathrm{Z}}_{2}Z2​ gauge theory of spin nematics as a continuum limit theory with a larger gauge structure. Nematic fractionalization parallels that of a quantum Hall liquid, but the large gauge symmetry restores the time-reversal symmetry and restricts the quasiparticle fusion rules and statistics.

Due to the relation to Andreev state transport, we term this effect \textit{topological Andreev rectification}. The size of rectification is quantified by a \textit{nonlocal rectified conductance}, which is established to attain an integer quantized value that equals χF\chi_FχF​ (in unit of e2/he^2/he2/h). Extensive numerical simulations are performed to support our theoretical proposal, and material platforms such as InAs heterostructures and graphene are identified as promising candidates to demonstrate this effect.
Two-dimensional (2d) electronic systems on a lattice at fractional filling ν=p/qν= p/qν=p/q exhibit a competition between charge ordered insulators, called Wigner-Mott insulators (WMIs), at large Coulomb repulsion and Fermi-liquid metals at large electronic kinetic energy. When those two energy scales are roughly equal, insulating states that restore the lattice translation symmetry, which we call quantum charge liquids (QCLs), may emerge. When gapped, these QCLs must exhibit topological order. In this work, we show that the allowed topological ordered phases that are proximate to the WMI strongly depend on the charge ordering in the WMI. In particular, we show that when qqq is even, no direct transition exists between a WMI with the smallest allowed unit cell size from filling constraints, i.e., the "minimal" WMI, and the topological order with the smallest ground state degeneracy on a torus allowed by filling constraints, i.e., the "minimal" TO. Furthermore, we describe the quantum melting transition of the WMIs to the proximate QCLs in terms of the proliferation of the topological defects of the WMIs. The field theory of this transition in terms of the topological defects reveals their role as precursors to the anyon excitations in the QCLs.
We investigate fractionalization of non-invertible symmetry in (2+1)D topological orders. We focus on coset non-invertible symmetries obtained by gauging non-normal subgroups of invertible 0 0 -form symmetries. These symmetries can arise as global symmetries in quantum spin liquids, given by the quotient of the projective symmetry group by a non-normal subgroup as invariant gauge group. We point out that such coset non-invertible symmetries in topological orders can exhibit symmetry fractionalization: each anyon can carry a “fractional charge” under the coset non-invertible symmetry given by a gauge invariant superposition of fractional quantum numbers. We present various examples using field theories and quantum double lattice models, such as fractional quantum Hall systems with charge conjugation symmetry gauged and finite group gauge theory from gauging a non-normal subgroup. They include symmetry enriched S_3 S 3 and O(2) O ( 2 ) gauge theories. We show that such systems have a fractionalized continuous non-invertible coset symmetry and a well-defined electric Hall conductance. The coset symmetry enforces a gapless edge state if the boundary preserves the continuous non-invertible symmetry. We propose a general approach for constructing coset symmetry defects using a “sandwich” construction: non-invertible symmetry defects can generally be constructed from an invertible defect sandwiched by condensation defects. The anomaly free condition for finite coset symmetry is also identified.
We study a class of anomalies associated with time-reversal and spatial-reflection symmetry in (2+1)-dimensional bosonic topological phases of matter. In these systems, the topological quantum numbers of the quasiparticles, such as the fusion rules and braiding statistics, possess a Z2{\mathbb{Z}}_{2}Z2​ symmetry which can be associated with either time reversal (denoted Z2T){\mathbb{Z}}_{2}^{\mathbf{T}})Z2T​) or spatial reflections. Under this symmetry, correlation functions of all Wilson loop operators in the low-energy topological quantum field theory (TQFT) are invariant. However, the theories that we study possess a severe anomaly associated with the failure to consistently localize the symmetry action to the quasiparticles, precluding even defining a consistent notion of symmetry fractionalization in such systems. We present simple sufficient conditions which determine when Z2T{\mathbb{Z}}_{2}^{\mathbf{T}}Z2T​ symmetry localization anomalies exist in general. We present an infinite series of TQFTs with such anomalies, some examples of which include USp(4)2\mathrm{USp}{(4)}_{2}USp(4)2​ Chern-Simons (CS) theory and SO(4)4\mathrm{SO}{(4)}_{4}SO(4)4​ CS theory. The theories that we find with these Z2T{\mathbb{Z}}_{2}^{\mathbf{T}}Z2T​ anomalies can all be obtained by gauging the unitary Z2{\mathbb{Z}}_{2}Z2​ subgroup of a different TQFT with a Z4T{\mathbb{Z}}_{4}^{\mathbf{T}}Z4T​ symmetry. We further show that the anomaly can be resolved in several distinct ways: (1) the true symmetry of the theory is Z4T{\mathbb{Z}}_{4}^{\mathbf{T}}Z4T​, or (2) the theory can be considered to be a theory of fermions, with ${\mathbf{T}}^{2}={(\ensuremath{-}1)}^{{N}_{f}}$ corresponding to fermion parity. Finally, we demonstrate that theories with the Z2T{\mathbb{Z}}_{2}^{\mathbf{T}}Z2T​ localization anomaly can be compatible with Z2T{\mathbb{Z}}_{2}^{\mathbf{T}}Z2T​ if they are ``pseudorealized'' at the surface of a (3+1)D symmetry-enriched topological phase. The ``pseudorealization'' refers to the fact that the bulk (3+1)D system is described by a dynamical Z2{\mathbb{Z}}_{2}Z2​ gauge theory and thus only a subset of the quasiparticles are truly confined to the surface.
Fractional quantum Hall (FQH) states are examples of symmetry-enriched topological states (SETs): in addition to the intrinsic topological order, which is robust to symmetry breaking, they possess symmetry-protected topological invariants, such as fractional charge of anyons and fractional Hall conductivity. In this paper we develop a comprehensive theory of symmetry-protected topological invariants for FQH states with spatial symmetries, which applies to Abelian and non-Abelian topological states, by using a recently developed framework of GGG-crossed braided tensor categories (G×G\timesG×BTCs) for SETs. We consider systems with U(1)U(1)U(1) charge conservation, magnetic translational, and spatial rotational symmetries, in the continuum and for all 555 orientation-preserving crystalline space groups in two dimensions, allowing arbitrary rational magnetic flux per unit cell, and assuming that symmetries do not permute anyons. In the crystalline setting, applicable to fractional Chern insulators and spin liquids, symmetry fractionalization is fully characterized by a generalization to non-Abelian states of the charge, spin, discrete torsion, and area vectors, which specify fractional charge, angular momentum, linear momentum, and fractionalization of the translation algebra for each anyon. The topological response theory contains 999 terms, which attach charge, linear momentum, and angular momentum to magnetic flux, lattice dislocations, disclinations, corners, and units of area. Using the G×G\timesG×BTC formalism, we derive the formula relating charge filling to the Hall conductivity and flux per unit cell; in the continuum this relates the filling fraction and the Hall conductivity without assuming Galilean invariance. We provide systematic formulas for topological invariants within the G×G\timesG×BTC framework; this gives, for example, a new categorical definition of the Hall conductivity.
