We study the topological phase transitions induced in spin-orbit coupled materials with buckling like silicene, germanene, stanene, etc, by circularly polarised light, beyond the high frequency regime, and unearth many new topological phases. These phases are characterised by the spin-resolved topological invariants, $C_0^uparrow$, $C_0^downarrow$, $C_pi^uparrow$ and $C_pi^downarrow$, which specify the spin-resolved edge states traversing the gaps at zero quasi-energy and the Floquet zone boundaries respectively. We show that for each phase boundary, and independently for each spin sector, the gap closure in the Brillouin zone occurs at a high symmetry point.

Bulk-boundary correspondence, connecting the bulk topology and the edge states, is an essential principle of the topological phases. However, the bulk-boundary correspondence is broken down in general non-Hermitian systems. In this paper, we construc
t one-dimensional non-Hermitian Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model with periodic driving that exhibits non-Hermitian skin effect: all the eigenstates are localized at the boundary of the systems, whether the bulk states or the zero and the $pi$ modes. To capture the topological properties, the non-Bloch winding numbers are defined by the non-Bloch periodized evolution operators based on the generalized Brillouin zone. Furthermore, the non-Hermitian bulk-boundary correspondence is established: the non-Bloch winding numbers ($W_{0,pi}$) characterize the edge states with quasienergies $epsilon=0, pi$. In our non-Hermitian system, a novel phenomenon can emerge that the robust edge states can appear even when the Floquet bands are topological trivial with zero non-Bloch band invariant, which is defined in terms of the non-Bloch effective Hamiltonian. We also show that the relation between the non-Bloch winding numbers ($W_{0,pi}$) and the non-Bloch band invariant ($mathcal{W}$): $mathcal{W}= W_{0}- W_{pi}$.
The bulk-edge correspondence (BEC) refers to a one-to-one relation between the bulk and edge properties ubiquitous in topologically nontrivial systems. Depending on the setup, BEC manifests in different forms and govern the spectral and transport pro
perties of topological insulators and semimetals. Although the topological pump is theoretically old, BEC in the pump has been established just recently [1] motivated by the state-of-the-art experiments using cold atoms [2,3]. The center of mass (CM) of a system with boundaries shows a sequence of quantized jumps in the adiabatic limit associated with the edge states. Although the bulk is adiabatic, the edge is inevitably non-adiabatic in the experimental setup or in any numerical simulations. Still the pumped charge is quantized and carried by the bulk. Its quantization is guaranteed by a compensation between the bulk and edges. We show that in the presence of disorder the pumped charge continues to be quantized despite the appearance of non-quantized jumps.
The same bulk two-dimensional topological phase can have multiple distinct, fully-chiral edge phases. We show that this can occur in the integer quantum Hall states at $ u=8$ and 12, with experimentally-testable consequences. We show that this can oc
cur in Abelian fractional quantum Hall states as well, with the simplest examples being at $ u=8/7, 12/11, 8/15, 16/5$. We give a general criterion for the existence of multiple distinct chiral edge phases for the same bulk phase and discuss experimental consequences. Edge phases correspond to lattices while bulk phases correspond to genera of lattices. Since there are typically multiple lattices in a genus, the bulk-edge correspondence is typically one-to-many; there are usually many stable fully chiral edge phases corresponding to the same bulk. We explain these correspondences using the theory of integral quadratic forms. We show that fermionic systems can have edge phases with only bosonic low-energy excitations and discuss a fermionic generalization of the relation between bulk topological spins and the central charge. The latter follows from our demonstration that every fermionic topological phase can be represented as a bosonic topological phase, together with some number of filled Landau levels. Our analysis shows that every Abelian topological phase can be decomposed into a tensor product of theories associated with prime numbers $p$ in which every quasiparticle has a topological spin that is a $p^n$-th root of unity for some $n$. It also leads to a simple demonstration that all Abelian topological phases can be represented by $U(1)^N$ Chern-Simons theory parameterized by a K-matrix.
Plasmas have been recently studied as topological materials. However, a comprehensive picture of topological phases and topological phase transitions in cold magnetized plasmas is still missing. Here we systematically map out all the topological phas
es and establish the bulk-edge correspondence in cold magnetized plasmas. We find that for the linear eigenmodes, there are 10 topological phases in the parameter space of density $n$, magnetic field $B$, and parallel wavenumber $k_{z}$, separated by the surfaces of Langmuir wave-L wave resonance, Langmuir wave-cyclotron wave resonance, and zero magnetic field. For fixed $B$ and $k_{z}$, only the phase transition at the Langmuir wave-cyclotron wave resonance corresponds to edge modes. A sufficient and necessary condition for the existence of this type of edge modes is given and verified by numerical solutions. We demonstrate that edge modes exist not only on a plasma-vacuum interface but also on more general plasma-plasma interfaces. This finding broadens the possible applications of these exotic excitations in space and laboratory plasmas.
We develop the high frequency expansion based on the Brillouin-Wigner (B-W) perturbation theory for driven systems with spin-orbit coupling which is applicable to the cases of silicene, germanene and stanene. We compute the effective Hamiltonian in t
he zero photon subspace not only to order $O(omega^{-1})$, but by keeping all the important terms to order $O(omega^{-2})$, and obtain the photo-assisted correction terms to both the hopping and the spin-orbit terms, as well as new longer ranged hopping terms. We then use the effective static Hamiltonian to compute the phase diagram in the high frequency limit and compare it with the results of direct numerical computation of the Chern numbers of the Floquet bands, and show that at sufficiently large frequencies, the B-W theory high frequency expansion works well even in the presence of spin-orbit coupling terms.
