Abstract: We construct a dual symmetry-protected topological (SPT) Hamiltonian for the $U(1)$ symmetric anisotropic spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ Heisenberg chain-a model that has traditionally been used to study spontaneous symmetry breaking (SSB) in both ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic phases, with an intervening extended Luttinger liquid phase. By performing a non-local unitary transformation, we explicitly construct a local fermionic Hamiltonian that exhibits two nontrivial topological phases separated by an extended Luttinger liquid regime. We demonstrate the topological nature of these phases by analyzing the entanglement structure, deriving a non-local string order parameter, and constructing an exact zero mode operator that connects states in different fermionic parity sectors.

Gapless symmetry-protected topological phases and generalized deconfined critical points from gauging a finite subgroup [0.6675805308519986]
Gauging a finite subgroup of a global symmetry can map conventional phases and phase transitions to unconventional ones. In this work, we study an emergent $mathbbZ$-gauged system with global $U(1)$. We also discuss the stability of these phases and the critical points to small perturbations and their potential experimental realizations.

Emergence of non-Abelian SU(2) invariance in Abelian frustrated fermionic ladders [37.69303106863453]
We consider a system of interacting spinless fermions on a two-leg triangular ladder with $pi/2$ magnetic flux per triangular plaquette. Microscopically, the system exhibits a U(1) symmetry corresponding to the conservation of total fermionic charge, and a discrete $mathbbZ$ symmetry. At the intersection of the three phases, the system features a critical point with an emergent SU(2) symmetry.

Symmetry-protected topological corner modes in a periodically driven interacting spin lattice [0.0]
Floquet symmetry protected second-order topological phases in a simple but insightful two-dimensional spin-1/2 lattice. We show that corner localized $mathbbZ$ symmetry broken operators commute and anticommute with the one-period time evolution operator. We propose a means to detect the signature of such modes in experiments and discuss the effect of imperfections.

Non-Hermitian Floquet phases with even-integer topological invariants in a periodically quenched two-leg ladder [0.0]
Periodically driven non-Hermitian systems could possess exotic nonequilibrium phases with unique topological, dynamical and transport properties. We introduce an experimentally realizable two-leg ladder model subjecting to both time-periodic quenches and non-Hermitian effects. Our work thus introduces a new type of non-Hermitian Floquet topological matter, and further reveals the richness of topology and dynamics in driven open systems.

Bulk detection of time-dependent topological transitions in quenched chiral models [48.7576911714538]
We show that the winding number of the Hamiltonian eigenstates can be read-out by measuring the mean chiral displacement of a single-particle wavefunction. This implies that the mean chiral displacement can detect the winding number even when the underlying Hamiltonian is quenched between different topological phases.
