Topological parity invariant in interacting two-dimensional systems from quantum Monte Carlo — •Stefan Wessel1, Thomas Lang1, Victor Gurarie2, and Andrew Essin2 — 1RWTH Aachen, Aachen, Germany — 2University of Colorado, Boulder, USA
We report results on calculating the parity invariant from imaginary-time Green's functions in quantum Monte Carlo simulations of strongly interacting electron systems. The topological invariant is used to study the trivial- to topological-insulator transitions in the Kane-Mele-Hubbard model with an explicit bond dimerization. We explore the accessibility and behavior of this invariant based on quantum Monte Carlo calculations.
