چکیده

Non-Hermitian quasicrystal forms a unique class of matter with symmetry-breaking, localization and topological transitions induced by gain loss or nonreciprocal effects. In this work, we introduce non-Abelian generalization non-Hermitian quasicrystal, in which the interplay between effects quasiperiodic potentials create mobility edges rich among extended, critical localized phases. These generic features are demonstrated investigating three variants Aubry-Andr\'e-Harper model. A unified characterization is given to their spectrum, localization, entanglement properties. Our findings thus add new members family uncover physics that can be triggered systems.

Topological entanglement in Abelian and non-Abelian excitation eigenstates.

Entanglement in topological phases of matter has so far been investigated through the perspective of their ground-state wave functions. In contrast, we demonstrate that the excitations of fractional quantum Hall (FQH) systems also contain information to identify the system's topological order. Entanglement spectrum of the FQH quasihole (QH) excitations is shown to differentiate between the conf...

First non-abelian cohomology of topological groups II

In this paper we introduce a new definition of the first non-abelian cohomology of topological groups.  We relate the cohomology of a normal subgroup $N$ of a topological group $G$ and the quotient $G/N$ to the cohomology of $G$. We get the inflation-restriction exact sequence. Also, we obtain a seven-term exact cohomology sequence up to dimension 2. We give an interpretation of the first non-a...

Entanglement spectrum as a generalization of entanglement entropy: identification of topological order in non-Abelian fractional quantum Hall effect states.

We study the "entanglement spectrum" (a presentation of the Schmidt decomposition analogous to a set of "energy levels") of a many-body state, and compare the Moore-Read model wave function for the nu=5/2 fractional quantum Hall state with a generic 5/2 state obtained by finite-size diagonalization of the second-Landau-level-projected Coulomb interactions. Their spectra share a common "gapless"...

Symmetry Breaking: A New Paradigm for Non-Perturbative QFT and Topological Transitions

ii Preface Lately, after ∼ 50 years, there seems to be a convergence in the languages used to describe Quantum Field Theory and String Theory, such that it seems possible to relate objects from these two perspectives. Therefore, a deeper investigation of the properties and features of QFT is a reasonable thing to do: non-perturbative effects, dualities, emergent properties, non-commutative stru...

Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking in Non Abelian Gauge Theories

This term paper explores the phenomenon of spontaneous symmetry breaking in systems with non-abelian gauge symmetry. The most famous example comes from the standard model of particle physics, wherein symmetry breaking is responsible for the masses of the W and Z bosons and the corresponding short range of the weak nuclear force. The electroweak theory will be discussed as well as a more ambitio...
