具有反射对称性的带隙态拓扑分类的Bott周期性

Bott periodicity for the topological classification of gapped states of matter with reflection symmetry

Luka Trifunovic, Piet Brouwer

摘要:

使用基于散射理论的降维方案,我们表明,拓扑绝缘体和反射对称的超导体的分类表可以组织在两个周期2和四个周期8周期,类似于没有空间对称性的拓扑绝缘体和超导体的Bott周期性。借助于降维方案,可以从一维分类得到任意维分类$d \ge 1$.为此,我们提出了一种基于相对同伦群和正合序列的推导方法,对具有反射对称性的一维绝缘体和超导体进行分类.由此产生的分类与最近由Shiozaki和Sato [Phys.\修订版本\ B { \bf 90},165114(2014)]。使用散射矩阵启发的方法,使我们能够解决第二个后裔$\bZ_2$阶段,其中拓扑非平凡的阶段是以前报道的易受扰动,打破平移对称性。

英文摘要:

Using a dimensional reduction scheme based on scattering theory, we show that the classification tables for topological insulators and superconductors with reflection symmetry can be organized in two period-two and four period-eight cycles, similar to the Bott periodicity found for topological insulators and superconductors without spatial symmetries. With the help of the dimensional reduction scheme the classification in arbitrary dimensions $d \ge 1$ can be obtained from the classification in one dimension, for which we present a derivation based on relative homotopy groups and exact sequences to classify one-dimensional insulators and superconductors with reflection symmetry. The resulting classification is fully consistent with a comprehensive classification obtained recently by Shiozaki and Sato [Phys.\ Rev.\ B {\bf 90}, 165114 (2014)]. The use of a scattering-matrix inspired method allows us to address the second descendant $\bZ_2$ phase, for which the topological nontrivial phase was previously reported to be vulnerable to perturbations that break translation symmetry.
