Despite the progress made in successful prediction of many classes of weakly-correlated topological materials, it is not clear how a topological order can emerge from interacting orders and whether or not a charge ordered topological state can exist in a two-dimensional (2D) material. Here, through first-principles modeling and analysis, we identify a 2$times$2 charge density wave (CDW) phase in monolayer $2H$-NbSe$_2$ that harbors coexisting quantum spin Hall (QSH) insulator, topological crystalline insulator (TCI) and topological nodal line (TNL) semimetal states. The topology in monolayer NbSe$_2$ is driven by the formation of the CDW and the associated symmetry-breaking periodic lattice distortions and not via a pre-existing topology. Our finding of an emergent triple-topological state in monolayer $2H$-NbSe$_2$ will offer novel possibilities for exploring connections between different topologies and a unique materials platform for controllable CDW-induced topological states for potential applications in quantum electronics and spintronics and Majorana-based quantum computing.

Topological physics and strong electron-electron correlations in quantum materials are typically studied independently. However, there have been rapid recent developments in quantum materials in which topological phase transitions emerge when the sin
gle-particle band structure is modified by strong interactions. We here demonstrate that the room-temperature phase of (TaSe$_4$)$_2$I is a Weyl semimetal with 24 pairs of Weyl nodes. Owing to its quasi-1D structure, (TaSe$_4$)$_2$I hosts an established CDW instability just below room temperature. Using X-ray diffraction, angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, and first-principles calculations, we find that the CDW in (TaSe$_4$)$_2$I couples the bulk Weyl points and opens a band gap. The correlation-driven topological phase transition in (TaSe$_4$)$_2$I provides a route towards observing condensed-matter realizations of axion electrodynamics in the gapped regime, topological chiral response effects in the semimetallic phase, and represents an avenue for exploring the interplay of correlations and topology in a solid-state material.
In this paper, the completed investigation of a possible superconducting phase in monolayer indium selenide is determined using first-principles calculations for both the hole and electron doping systems. The hole-doped dependence of the Fermi surfac
e is exclusively fundamental for monolayer InSe. It leads to the extensive modification of the Fermi surface from six separated pockets to two pockets by increasing the hole densities. For low hole doping levels of the system, below the Lifshitz transition point, superconductive critical temperatures $T_c sim 55-75$ K are obtained within anisotropic Eliashberg theory depending on varying amounts of the Coulomb potential from 0.2 to 0.1. However, for some hole doping above the Lifshitz transition point, the combination of the temperature dependence of the bare susceptibility and the strong electron-phonon interaction gives rise to a charge density wave that emerged at a temperature far above the corresponding $T_c$. Having included non-adiabatic effects, we could carefully analyze conditions for which either a superconductive or charge density wave phase occurs in the system. In addition, monolayer InSe becomes dynamically stable by including non-adiabatic effects for different carrier concentrations at room temperature.
When electrons in a solid are excited with light, they can alter the free energy landscape and access phases of matter that are beyond reach in thermal equilibrium. This accessibility becomes of vast importance in the presence of phase competition, w
hen one state of matter is preferred over another by only a small energy scale that, in principle, is surmountable by light. Here, we study a layered compound, LaTe$_3$, where a small in-plane (a-c plane) lattice anisotropy results in a unidirectional charge density wave (CDW) along the c-axis. Using ultrafast electron diffraction, we find that after photoexcitation, the CDW along the c-axis is weakened and subsequently, a different competing CDW along the a-axis emerges. The timescales characterizing the relaxation of this new CDW and the reestablishment of the original CDW are nearly identical, which points towards a strong competition between the two orders. The new density wave represents a transient non-equilibrium phase of matter with no equilibrium counterpart, and this study thus provides a framework for unleashing similar states of matter that are trapped under equilibrium conditions.
Recently fabricated InSe monolayers exhibit remarkable characteristics that indicate the potential of this material to host a number of many-body phenomena. Here, we consistently describe collective electronic effects in hole-doped InSe monolayers us
ing advanced many-body techniques. To this end, we derive a realistic electronic-structure model from first principles that takes into account the most important characteristics of this material, including a flat band with prominent van Hove singularities in the electronic spectrum, strong electron-phonon coupling, and weakly-screened long-ranged Coulomb interactions. We calculate the temperature-dependent phase diagram as a function of band filling and observe that this system is in a regime with coexisting charge density wave and ferromagnetic instabilities that are driven by strong electronic Coulomb correlations. This regime can be achieved at realistic doping levels and high enough temperatures, and can be verified experimentally. We find that the electron-phonon interaction does not play a crucial role in these effects, effectively suppressing the local Coulomb interaction without changing the qualitative physical picture.
A charge density wave (CDW) of a nonzero ordering vector $mathbf{q}$ couple electronic states at $mathbf{k}$ and $mathbf{k}+mathbf{q}$ statically, giving rise to a reduced Brillouin zone (RBZ) due to the band folding effect. Its structure, in terms o
f an irreducible representation of the little group of $mathbf{q}$, would change the symmetry of the system and electronic structure accompanying possible change of band inversion, offering a chance of the topological phase transition. Monolayer 1textit{T}-TiSe$_2$ is investigated for it shows an unconventional CDW phase having a triple-$q$ $M_1^-$ structure. Moreover, the coupling between the triple-$q$ component of the $M_1^-$ CDW will inevitably produce a small $M_1^+$ CDW. The CDW yields a band inversion in 1textit{T}-TiSe$_2$ but different types of CDW can affect the electronic structure and system topology differently. The impact of CDW of different types was studied by utilizing a symmetrization-antisymmetrization technique to extract the $M_1^-$ and $M_1^+$ CDW contributions in the DFT-based tight-binding model and study their effects. The results are consistent with the parity consideration, improving understanding of topology for a CDW system with and without parity.
