Classification of stable three-dimensional Dirac semimetals with nontrivial topology.
A three-dimensional (3D) Dirac semimetal (SM) is the 3D analogue of graphene having linear energy dispersion around Fermi points. Owing to the nontrivial topology of electronic wave functions, the 3D Dirac SM shows nontrivial physical properties and hosts various exotic quantum states such as Weyl SMs and topological insulators under proper external conditions. There are several kinds of Dirac ...
متن کاملDifferential Topology
This paper is to propose solutions to selected exercises in Differential Topology by Guillemin and Pollack, [1], and to comment on certain proofs in the book. Although the sections covered in this paper correspond to specific sections in the book, they have been freely renamed to suit the content. The sections of the book which will be covered here are, in order: §6: Homotopy and Stability Appe...
متن کاملMath 762 Differential Topology
This course will explain the fundamental concepts of topology for smooth manifolds. After developing the fundamental tool of transversality theory (we prove Sard’s theorem) we will prove the Brouwer Fixed Point Theorem, the Brouwer No Retraction Theorem, and the Whitney Embedding Theorem, and the “27 lines on a cubic surface” using this tool. Then we cover Morse Theory and use it to classify 2-...
متن کاملComputational Differential Topology
Some of the more differential aspects of the nascent field of computational topology are introduced and treated in considerable depth. Relevant categories based upon stratified geometric objects are proposed, and fundamental problems are identified and discussed in the context of both differential topology and computer science. New results on the triangulation of objects in the computational di...
متن کاملDistinct Evolutions of Weyl Fermion Quasiparticles and Fermi Arcs with Bulk Band Topology in Weyl Semimetals.
The Weyl semimetal phase is a recently discovered topological quantum state of matter characterized by the presence of topologically protected degeneracies near the Fermi level. These degeneracies are the source of exotic phenomena, including the realization of chiral Weyl fermions as quasiparticles in the bulk and the formation of Fermi arc states on the surfaces. Here, we demonstrate that the...
