We propose classification schemes for characterizing two-dimensional topological phases with nontrivial weak indices. Here, weak implies that the Chern number in the corresponding phase is trivial, while the system shows edge states along specific boundaries. As concrete examples, we analyze differen

We have observed the quantum Hall effect (QHE) and Shubnikov-de Haas (SdH) oscillations in highly disordered graphene at magnetic fields up to 65 T. Disorder was introduced by hydrogenation of graphene up to a ratio H/C $approx 0.1%$. The analysis of
SdH oscillations and QHE indicates that the topological part of the Berry phase, proportional to the pseudo-spin winding number, is robust against introduction of disorder by hydrogenation in large scale graphene.
The metallic surface state of a topological insulator (TI) is not only topologically protected, but exhibits a remarkable property of inducing an effective vector potential on curved surfaces. For an electron in the surface state of a spherical or a
cylindrical TI (TI nanoparticle or nanowire) a pseudo-magnetic monopole or a fictitious solenoid is effectively induced, encoding the geometry of the system. Here, by taking an example of a hyperbolic surface we demonstrate that as a consequence of this property stemming from its active spin degree of freedom, the surface state is by itself topologically protected.
Negative longitudinal magnetoresistance, in the presence of an external magnetic field parallel to the direction of an applied current, has recently been experimentally verified in Weyl semimetals and topological insulators in the bulk conduction lim
it. The appearance of negative longitudinal magnetoresistance in topological semimetals is understood as an effect of chiral anomaly, whereas it is not well-defined in topological insulators. Another intriguing phenomenon, planar Hall effect - appearance of a transverse voltage in the plane of applied co-planar electric and magnetic fields not perfectly aligned to each other, a configuration in which the conventional Hall effect vanishes, has recently been suggested to exist in Weyl semimetals. In this paper we present a quasi-classical theory of planar Hall effect of a three-dimensional topological insulator in the bulk conduction limit. Starting from Boltzmann transport equations we derive the expressions for planar Hall conductivity and longitudinal magnetoconductivity in topological insulators and show the important roles played by the orbital magnetic moment for the appearance of planar Hall effect. Our theoretical results predict specific experimental signatures for topological insulators that can be directly checked in experiments.
We propose a topological quantum phase transition for quantum states with different Berry phases in hole-doped III-V semiconductor quantum wells with bulk and structure inversion asymmetry. The Berry phase of the occupied Bloch states can be characte
ristic of topological metallic states. It is found that the adjustment of thickness of the quantum well may cause a transition of Berry phase in two-dimensional hole gas. Correspondingly, the jump of spin Hall conductivity accompanies the change of the Berry phase. This property is robust against the impurity potentials in the system. Experimental detection of this topological quantum phase transition is discussed.
The paper examines weak localization (WL) of surface states with a quadratic band crossing in topological crystalline insulators. It is shown that the topology of the quadratic band crossing point dictates the negative sign of the WL conductivity cor
rection. For the surface states with broken time-reversal symmetry, an explicit dependence of the WL conductivity on the band Berry flux is obtained and analyzed for different carrier-density regimes and types of the band structure (normal or inverted). These results suggest a way to detect the band Berry flux through WL measurements.
