Visualizing one-dimensional non-hermitian topological phases

Interacting one-dimensional fermionic symmetry-protected topological phases.

In free fermion systems with given symmetry and dimension, the possible topological phases are labeled by elements of only three types of Abelian groups, 0, Z2, or Z. For example, noninteracting one-dimensional fermionic superconducting phases with S(z) spin rotation and time-reversal symmetries are classified by Z. We show that with weak interactions, this classification reduces to Z4. Using g...

Quantum circuit complexity of one-dimensional topological phases

Topological quantum states cannot be created from product states with local quantum circuits of constant depth and are in this sense more entangled than topologically trivial states, but how entangled are they? Here we quantify the entanglement in one-dimensional topological states by showing that local quantum circuits of linear depth are necessary to generate them from product states. We esta...

One Dimensional Topological Lattices

The lattice theoretic terminology used in this paper is consistent with Birkhoff [2]. The topological terms can be found in [5] or [8] with the following exceptions. If X and Y are sets, X\Y denotes the relative compliment of Y with respect to X. If A is a subset of a topological space then A*, A"and FiA)=A*\A° denote the topological closure, interior and boundary of A. The symbol 0 denotes the...
