Wannier representation of Z2 topological insulators
We consider the problem of constructing Wannier functions for Z2 topological insulators in two dimensions. It is well known that there is a topological obstruction to the construction of Wannier functions for Chern insulators, but it has been unclear whether this is also true for the Z2case. We consider the Kane-Mele tight-binding model, which exhibits both normal (Z2-even) and topological (Z2-...

متن کاملThree-Dimensional Topological Insulators
Topological insulators in three dimensions are nonmagnetic insulators that possess metallic surface states (SSs) as a consequence of the nontrivial topology of electronic wavefunctions in the bulk of the material. They are the first known examples of topological order in bulk solids. We review the basic phenomena and experimental history, starting with the observation of topological insulator b...
متن کاملTopological order parameters for interacting topological insulators.
We propose a topological order parameter for interacting topological insulators, expressed in terms of the full Green's functions of the interacting system. We show that it is exactly quantized for a time-reversal invariant topological insulator, and it can be experimentally measured through the topological magneto-electric effect. This topological order parameter can be applied to both interac...
