In a finite time quantum quench of the Haldane model, the Chern number determining the topology of the bulk remains invariant, as long as the dynamics is unitary. Nonetheless, the corresponding boundary attribute, the edge current, displays interesting dynamics. For the case of sudden and adiabatic quenches the post quench edge current is solely determined by the initial and the final Hamiltonians, respectively. However for a finite time ($tau$) linear quench in a Haldane nano ribbon, we show that the evolution of the edge current from the sudden to the adiabatic limit is not monotonic in $tau$, and has a turning point at a characteristic time scale $tau=tau_c$. For small $tau$, the excited states lead to a huge unidirectional surge in the edge current of both the edges. On the other hand, in the limit of large $tau$, the edge current saturates to its expected equilibrium ground state value. This competition between the two limits lead to the observed non-monotonic behavior. Interestingly, $tau_c$ seems to depend only on the Semenoff mass and the Haldane flux. A similar dynamics for the edge current is also expected in other systems with topological phases.

The fermionic and Majorana edge mode dynamics of various topological systems is compared, after a sudden global quench of the Hamiltonian parameters takes place. Attention is focused on the regimes where the survival probability of an edge state has
oscillations either due to critical or off-critical quenches. The nature of the wave functions and the overlaps between the eigenstates of different points in parameter space determine the various types of behaviors, and the distinction due to the Majorana nature of the excitations plays a lesser role. Performing a sequence of quenches it is shown that the edge states, including Majorana modes, may be switched off and on. Also, the generation of Majoranas due to quenching from a trivial phase is discussed.
We propose the model of layered materials, in which each layer is described by the conventional Haldane model, while the inter - layer hopping parameter corresponds to the ABC stacking. We calculate the topological invariant $N_3$ for the resulting m
odel, which is responsible for the conductivity of intrinsic quantum Hall effect. It has been shown that in a certain range of the values of interlayer hopping parameter, the value of $N_3$ is equal to the number of layers multiplied by the topological invariant of each layer. At the same time this value may be calculated using the low energy effective theory.
Different from the chiral edge states, antichiral edge states propagating in the same direction on the opposite edges are theoretically proposed based on the modified Haldane model, which is recently experimentally realized in photonic crystal and el
ectric lattice systems. Here, we instead present that the antichiral edge states in the two-dimensional system can also be achieved based on the original Haldane model by combining two subsystems with the opposite chirality. Most importantly, by stacking these two-dimensional systems into three-dimension, it is found that the copropagating antichiral hinge states localized on the two opposite diagonal hinge cases of the system can be implemented. Interestingly, the location of antichiral hinge states can be tuned via hopping parameters along the third dimension. By investigating the local Chern number/layer Chern number and transmission against random disorders, we confirm that the proposed antichiral edge states and hinge states are topologically protected and robust against disorders. Our proposed model systems are expected to be realized in photonic crystal and electric lattice systems.
A characteristic feature of topological systems is the presence of robust gapless edge states. In this work the effect of time-dependent perturbations on the edge states is considered. Specifically we consider perturbations that can be understood as
changes of the parameters of the Hamiltonian. These changes may be sudden or carried out at a fixed rate. In general, the edge modes decay in the thermodynamic limit, but for finite systems a revival time is found that scales with the system size. The dynamics of fermionic edge modes and Majorana modes are compared. The effect of periodic perturbations is also referred allowing the appearance of edge modes out of a topologically trivial phase.
Quantum spin-Hall edges are envisaged as next-generation transistors, yet they exhibit dissipationless transport only over short distances. Here we show that in a diffusive sample, where charge puddles with odd spin cause back-scattering, a magnetic
field drastically increases the mean free path and drives the system into the ballistic regime with a Landauer-Buttiker conductance. A strong non-linear non-reciprocal current emerges in the diffusive regime with opposite signs on each edge, and vanishes in the ballistic limit. We discuss its detection in state-of-the-art experiments.
