超导系统拓扑序的刻画

Characterizing Topological Order in Superconducting Systems

M. Cristina Diamantini, Pasquale Sodano

摘要:

两个已建立的框架解释了超导系统中能隙的产生:一个是基于通过Anderson-Higgs-Kibble机制的自发对称性破缺,另一个是基于最近发展的拓扑序范式。我们表明,在流形上与非平凡的拓扑结构,这两种机制产生的退化的基态所产生的{ \it不可压缩性}诱导的间隙的存在。我们计算了拓扑超导体的拓扑纠缠熵,并认为它的测量允许{ \it区分}产生超导能隙的两种机制。

英文摘要:

Two established frameworks account for the onset of a gap in a superconducting system: one is based on spontaneous symmetry breaking via the Anderson-Higgs-Kibble mechanism, and the other is based on the recently developed paradigm of topological order. We show that, on manifolds with non trivial topology, both mechanisms yield a degeneracy of the ground state arising only from the {\it incompressibility} induced by the presence of a gap. We compute the topological entanglement entropy of a topological superconductor and argue that its measure allows to {\it distinguish} between the two mechanisms of generating a superconducting gap.
