SUMMARY:[CMT Seminar] Adrien Bouhon - Weyl nodes with non-Abelian charges
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Adrien Bouhon from Nordita\n \nTitle: Weyl nodes with non-Abelian charges\n \nTime:  Tuesday\n17th of September\, Fika 10:30-11:00\, Seminar 11:00-12:00\, \n \nPlace: Nordita South\, room 112:028 .\n\nAbstract:\nWeyl points trapped within a C_2T-symmetric plane (C2 = 180 degrees rotation\, and T = time reversal) possess non-Abelian topological charges on top of their chirality. E.g. three-level systems realize the quaternion group. This picture requires to go beyond the modeling of a band structure as a Grassmannian (where a single spectral gap is specified). The non-Abelian nature of Weyl points implies new types of obstruction\, where\, for instance\, two Weyl points with opposite chiralities may not annihilate. Also\, the non-Abelian charges can be converted through the braiding of Weyl points in momentum space. \n \nI will review three different yet equivalent ways of computing the non-Abelian charges: (i) as a non-cyclic phase defined from the parallel transport of the Hamiltonian along a base loop\, (ii) as the Euler class of a two-band subspace over a patch bounded by the base loop\, and (iii) as the winding number of the Pfaffian of the Wilsonnian Hamiltonian – of the two-band subspace – as the base loop flows over the patch.  \n \n[Remark: 50% of the material I will present is new as compared to the talk I gave at the Nordita workshop in beginning of August.] \n
