• Abstract summary: We propose to use modulation of interaction to realize topological pumping without single-particle counterpart. Because the modulation breaks time-reversal symmetry, the multiparticle energy bands of bound states have none-zero Chern number. Our work could trigger further studies of correlated topological phenomena that do not have a single-particle counterpart.

• Abstract: Particle-particle interaction provides a new degree of freedom to induce novel topological phenomena. Here, we propose to use spatiotemporal modulation of interaction to realize topological pumping without single-particle counterpart. Because the modulation breaks time-reversal symmetry, the multiparticle energy bands of bound states have none-zero Chern number, and support topological bound edge states. In a Thouless pump, a bound state that uniformly occupies a topological energy band can be shifted by integer unit cells per cycle, consistent with the corresponding Chern number. We can also realize topological pumping of bound edge state from one end to another. The entanglement entropy between particles rapidly increases at transition points, which is related to the spatial spread of a bounded pair. In addition, we propose to realize hybridized pumping with fractional displacement per cycle by adding an extra tilt potential to separate topological pumping of the bound state and Bloch oscillations of single particle. Our work could trigger further studies of correlated topological phenomena that do not have a single-particle counterpart.

  In the noninteracting case, quantized Thouless pumps can only occur when a topological singularity is encircled adiabatically. In the presence of interactions, such topological transport can even persist for exotic paths in which the system gets arbitrarily close to the noninteracting singularity.

  Thouless pumping represents a powerful concept to probe quantized topological invariants in quantum systems. We show that sufficiently large intersite interactions allow for an interaction-induced recovery of Thouless pumps. Our results provide a new mechanism to stabilize Thouless pumps in interacting quantum systems.

  We study phase transitions occurring in the stationary state of the dynamics of integrable many-body non-Hermitian Hamiltonians. We observe that the entanglement phase transitions occurring in the stationary state have the same nature as that occurring in the vacuum of the non-hermitian Hamiltonian.

  We report on an emergent mechanism for pumping in a quantum gas coupled to an optical resonator. Due to dissipation, the cavity field evolves between its two quadratures, each corresponding to a different centrosymmetric crystal configuration. This self-oscillation results in a time-periodic potential analogous to that describing the transport of electrons in topological tight-binding models.

  We investigate the formation of quasisteady states in one-dimensional pumps of interacting fermions at non-integer filling fraction. Potential disorder reduces the amplitude of fluctuations of the quasisteady state current around its universal value. The lifetime of the quasisteady state remains nearly unaffected for disorder strengths up to the scale of the single-particle band gap.
