Landau-Ginzburg Paradigm of Topological Phases
Topologically ordered matter phases have been regarded as beyond the Landau-Ginzburg symmetry breaking paradigm of matter phases. Recent studies of anyon condensation in topological phases, however, may fit topological phases back in the Landau-Ginzburg paradigm. To truly do so, we realized that the string-net model of topological phases is in fact an effective lattice gauge theory coupled with anyonic matter once two modifications are made: (1) We reinterpret anyons as matter fields coupled to…

Scattering angle in a Topological Star spacetime: a self-force approach
We compute the scattering angle for a scalar neutral probe undergoing unbound motion around a Topological Star, including self-force effects. Moreover we identify the `electro-magnetic' source of the background as Papapetrou Field compatible with the isometries and characterize Topological Stars by studying their sectional curvature, geometric transport along special curves and the gravitational energy content in terms of the super-energy tensors.

Implementation and topological characterization of Weyl exceptional rings in quantum-mechanical systems
Non-Hermiticity can lead to the emergence of many intriguing phenomena that are absent in Hermitian systems, enabled by exceptional topological defects, among which Weyl exceptional rings (WER) are particularly interesting. The topology of a WER can be characterized by the quantized Berry phase and a nonzero Chern number, both encoded in the eigenvectors of the non-Hermitian Hamiltonian. So far, WERs have been realized with classical wave systems, whose eigenvectors can be well described by cla…
