• Abstract summary: We consider the characterization of topological phases with Hamiltonians that are beyond the minimal model. We find that the terms which anti-commute with others can hold common band-inversion surfaces, which controls the topology of all the bands.

• Abstract: Dynamical characterization of topological phases under quantum quench dynamics has been demonstrated as a powerful and efficient tool. Previous studies have been focused on systems of which the Hamiltonian consists of matrices that commute with each other and satisfy Clifford algebra. In this work, we consider the characterization of topological phases with Hamiltonians that are beyond the minimal model. Specifically, the quantum quench dynamics of two types of layered systems is studied, of which the consisting matrices of Hamiltonians do not all satisfy Clifford algebra. We find that the terms which anti-commute with others can hold common band-inversion surfaces, which controls the topology of all the bands, but for other terms, there is no universal behavior and need to be treated case by case.

  We provide a classification of Lie algebras generated by translation-invariant 2-local spin chain Hamiltonians. We consider chains with open and periodic boundary conditions and find 17 unique dynamical Lie algebras. In addition to the closed and open spin chains, we consider systems with a fully connected topology, which may be relevant for quantum machine learning approaches.

• Topology shared between classical metamaterials and interacting superconductors [0.0]
  Supersymmetry has been studied at a linear level between normal modes of metamaterials described by rigidity matrices and non-interacting quantum Hamiltonians. Recently, insight into the behavior of nonlinear mechanical systems was found by defining topological indices via the Poincar'e-Hopf index. We establish a connection between isostatic mechanical metamaterials and supersymmetric quantum systems, such as electrons coupled to phonons in metals and superconductors.

  We consider a paradigmatic solvable model of topological order in two dimensions, Kitaev's honeycomb Hamiltonian. We turn it into a measurement-only dynamics consisting of measurements of two-qubit bond operators. We observe an unusual behavior for the dynamical purification of mixed states, characterized at late times by the dynamical exponent $z = 1/2$.
