The Quantum Spin Hall Effect
Most quantum states of condensed matter are classified by the symmetries they break. For example, crystalline solids break translational symmetry, and ferromagnets break rotational symmetry. By contrast, topological states of matter evade traditional symmetrybreaking classification schemes, and they signal the existence of a fundamentally different organizational principle of quantum matter. Th...
متن کاملQuantum spin Hall effect in graphene.
We study the effects of spin orbit interactions on the low energy electronic structure of a single plane of graphene. We find that in an experimentally accessible low temperature regime the symmetry allowed spin orbit potential converts graphene from an ideal two-dimensional semimetallic state to a quantum spin Hall insulator. This novel electronic state of matter is gapped in the bulk and supp...
متن کاملSpin quantum Hall effect in unconventional superconductors
We study the properties of the ‘‘spin quantum Hall fluid’’—a spin phase with quantized spin Hall conductance that is potentially realizable in superconducting systems with unconventional pairing symmetry. A simple realization is provided by a dx22y21idxy superconductor which we argue has a dimensionless spin Hall conductance equal to 2. A theory of the edge states of the dx22y21idxy superconduc...
متن کاملSpin-Hall effect with quantum group symmetries
We construct a model of spin-Hall effect on a noncommutative four sphere S4 θ with isospin degrees of freedom, coming from a noncommutative instanton, and invariance under a quantum group SOθ(5). The corresponding representation theory allows to explicitly diagonalize the Hamiltonian and construct the ground state; there are both integer and fractional excitations. Similar models exist on highe...
متن کاملLarge N Spin Quantum Hall Effect
We introduce a large N version of the spin quantum Hall transition problem. It is formulated as a problem of Dirac fermions coupled to disorder, whose Hamiltonian belong to the symmetry class C. The fermions carry spin degrees of freedom valued in the algebra sp(2N), the spin quantum Hall effect corresponding to N = 1. Arguments based on renormalization group transformations as well as on a sig...
