摘要:

物质拓扑态的分类依赖于空间维数和对称性类别。对于非相互作用的拓扑绝缘体和超导体,系统地得到了拓扑分类,非平凡拓扑绝缘体可以用整数或$Z_2$分类。物质的相互作用拓扑状态的分类要复杂得多,只有特殊情况才能理解。本文研究了一类新的$(2+1)$维拓扑超导体,它具有时间反演对称性和$\mathbb{Z}_2$自旋守恒对称性。我们证明了这类超导体在考虑电子相互作用时可按$\mathbb{Z}_8$分类,而在不考虑电子相互作用时可按$\mathbb{Z}$分类。

英文摘要:

The classification of topological states of matter depends on spatial dimension and symmetry class. For non-interacting topological insulators and superconductors the topological classification is obtained systematically and nontrivial topological insulators are classified by either integer or $Z_2$. The classification of interacting topological states of matter is much more complicated and only special cases are understood. In this paper we study a new class of topological superconductors in $(2+1)$ dimensions which has time-reversal symmetry and a $\mathbb{Z}_2$ spin conservation symmetry. We demonstrate that the superconductors in this class is classified by $\mathbb{Z}_8$ when electron interaction is considered, while the classification is $\mathbb{Z}$ without interaction.
