Phases of the (2+1) Dimensional SO(5) Nonlinear Sigma Model with Topological Term

Zhenjiu Wang et al.

Summary: The study utilizes the half-filled zeroth Landau level in graphene as a regularization scheme to explore the physics of the SO(5) nonlinear sigma model subject to a Wess-Zumino-Witten topological term in 2 + 1 dimensions. The research shows an ordered phase within a specific parameter range, indicating the potential for deconfined quantum phase transitions between valence bond solids and antiferromagnets.

Doping-Induced Quantum Spin Hall Insulator to Superconductor Transition

Zhenjiu Wang et al.

Summary: The study reveals new properties of the quantum spin Hall insulating state, paving the way for superconductivity through the condensation of skyrmions. Through simulations, it is confirmed that there is a direct transition between the quantum spin Hall insulator and an s-wave superconductor, with the ability to analyze dopings away from half-filling. This route to superconductivity has been proposed in the realm of twisted bilayer graphene.

Intrinsically gapless topological phases

Ryan Thorngren et al.

Summary: This work identifies a new mechanism leading to intrinsically gapless topological phases, which exhibit unique properties such as protected edge modes and string order parameters that are typically forbidden in gapped phases. The essential ingredient of these phases is that on-site symmetries act in an anomalous fashion at low energies.

Gross-Neveu Heisenberg criticality: Dynamical generation of quantum spin Hall masses

Yuhai Liu et al.

Summary: Using auxiliary field quantum Monte Carlo simulations, we can compute unprecedentedly precise susceptibilities of the order parameter. In O(N) Gross-Neveu transitions, the anomalous dimension of the bosonic mode grows with N, highlighting the importance of considering susceptibilities over equal-time correlations in the large-N limit to minimize contributions from the background. For the N = 3 case, specific values for the correlation length exponent, and the bosonic and fermionic anomalous dimensions were obtained.
