Gapless Luttinger liquid is conventionally viewed as topologically trivial, unless it hosts degenerate ground states and or entanglement spectrum, which necessitates partial bulk degree of freedom to be gapped out. Here we predict an emergent gapless topological Luttinger liquid which is beyond the conventional scenarios and is characterized by the nontrivial many-body bulk spin texture, and propose feasible scheme for experimental observation. We consider a one-dimensional spin-orbit coupled Fermi-Hubbard model with fractional filling, whose low-energy physics is effectively described by a spinless Luttinger liquid and is trivial in the conventional characterization. We show that, as being tuned by the filling factor and interaction strength, the many-body ground state may exhibit nontrivial winding in its bulk spin texture in the projected momentum space, manifesting an emergent topological phase. A topological transition occurs when the projected spin-state at a high symmetry momentum becomes fully mixed one, resulting from competing processes of particle scattering to the lower and higher subbands, for which the spin texture at such momentum point is ill-defined, but the Luttinger liquid keeps gapless through the transition. Surprisingly, at relatively small filling the Luttinger liquid remains topologically nontrivial even at infinitely strong interaction. The results can be generalized to finite temperature which facilitates the real experimental detection. This work shows a novel gapless topological Luttinger liquid whose characterization is beyond the low-energy effective theory, and can be verified based on current experiments.
