摘要
En 中文
Topological phase transitions can be described by the theory of critical phenomena and identified by critical exponents that define their universality classes. This is a consequence of the existence of a diverging length at the transition that has been identified as the penetration depth of the surface modes in the nontrivial topological phase. In this paper we characterize different universality classes of topological transitions by determining their correlation length exponents directly from numerical calculations of the penetration length of the edge modes as a function of the distance to the topological transition. We consider generalizations of the topological nontrivial Su-Schriefer-Heeger (SSH) model, for the case of next next nearest neighbors hopping terms and in the presence of a synthetic potential. The latter allows the system to transit between two universality classes with different correlation length and dynamic critical exponents. It presents a line of multicritical point in its phase diagram since the behavior of the Berry connection depends on the path it is approached. We compare our results with those obtained from a scaling approach to the Berry connection.
