• Abstract: The seminal Haldane model brings up a paradigm beyond the quantum Hall effect to look for a plethora of topological phases in the honeycomb and other lattices. Here we dwell into this model considering a full parameter space in the presence of spin-orbit interaction as well as Zeeman field such that the flavour of Kane-Mele model is invoked. Adopting this extended Haldane model as an example, we elucidate, in a transparent manner, a number of topological features in a pedagogical manner. First, we describe various first order topological insulator phases and their characterizations while explaining various anomalous quantum Hall effects and quantum spin Hall effects in the extended Haldane model. Second, we demonstrate the concepts of higher order topological insulator phases along with the topological invariants in the anisotropic limit of the extended Haldane model. At the end, we discuss various open issues involving \textcolor{black}{emergent or extended} symmetries that might lead to a broader understanding of various topological phases and the associated criteria behind their emergence.

• Entanglement in quenched extended Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model with anomalous dynamical quantum phase transitions [0.0]
  We study dynamical quantum phase transitions (DQPTs) in the quenched extended Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) model. Anomalous DQPTs, where the number of critical momenta exceeds the winding number differences between the pre-quench and post-quench phases, are observed. We categorize the phases in the equilibrium model into two classes and distinctive features in the time evolution of the entanglement involving quenches within and across the two classes are identified.

• The Haldane Model with Chiral Edge States using a Synthetic Dimension [0.0]
  We show that the differences between the traditional Haldane model, which utilise a honeycomb lattice structure, and that of the Haldane model imbued onto a brick-wall lattice geometry, are inconsequential. A proposal is then put forward to realise the Haldane model by exploiting the internal degrees of freedom of atoms as a synthetic dimension.

• Higher-order topological Peierls insulator in a two-dimensional atom-cavity system [58.720142291102135]
  We show how photon-mediated interactions give rise to a plaquette-ordered bond pattern in the atomic ground state. The pattern opens a non-trivial topological gap in 2D, resulting in a higher-order topological phase hosting corner states. Our work shows how atomic quantum simulators can be harnessed to investigate novel strongly-correlated topological phenomena.

  We investigate a realistic scenario for the quantum simulation of such systems using cold Rydberg-dressed atoms in optical lattices. We perform a detailed analysis of the phase diagram at half- and incommensurate fillings, in the mean-field approximation. We furthermore study the stability of the phases with respect to temperature within the mean-field approximation.

  We show the presence of a topological phase transition that is of a different universality class than that observed in stroboscopic projective circuits. We find that this entanglement transition is well identified by a combination of the bipartite entanglement entropy and the topological entanglement entropy.

  Quantum emitters interacting with photonic band-gap materials lead to the appearance of qubit-photon bound states. We study the features of the qubit-photon bound states when the emitters couple to the bulk modes in the different phases. We consider the coupling of emitters to the edge modes appearing in the different topological phases.

  We propose a Floquet protocol to realize the antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model with power-law decaying interactions. We show that this model features a quantum phase transition from a liquid to a valence bond solid that spontaneously breaks lattice translational symmetry. We moreover introduce an interferometric protocol to characterize the topological excitations and the bulk topological invariants of the interacting many-body system.
