Electronic properties, correlated topology, and Green's function zeros

There is extensive current interest in electronic topology in correlated settings. In strongly correlated systems, contours of Green's function zeros may develop in frequency-momentum space, and their role in correlated topology has increasingly been recognized. However, whether and how the zeros contribute to electronic properties is a matter of uncertainty. Here we address the issue in an exactly solvable model for a Mott insulator. We show that the Green's function zeros contribute to several physically measurable correlation functions in a way that does not run into inconsistencies. In particular, the physical properties remain robust to chemical potential variations up to the Mott gap, as it should be based on general considerations. Our work sets the stage for further understandings of the rich interplay among topology, symmetry, and strong correlations. Published by the American Physical Society 2024

Abstract

There is extensive current interest in electronic topology in correlated settings. In strongly correlated systems, contours of Green's function zeros may develop in frequency-momentum space, and their role in correlated topology has increasingly been recognized. However, whether and how the zeros contribute to electronic properties is a matter of uncertainty. Here we address the issue in an exactly solvable model for a Mott insulator. We show that the Green's function zeros contribute to several physically measurable correlation functions in a way that does not run into inconsistencies. In particular, the physical properties remain robust to chemical potential variations up to the Mott gap, as it should be based on general considerations. Our work sets the stage for further understandings of the rich interplay among topology, symmetry, and strong correlations. Published by the American Physical Society 2024
