Primer on topological insulators
... We have reduced the linear operator Ĥ (an ’infinite dimensional matrix’) to a one parameter family chain of N block matrices Ĥk . Suppose we had managed to diagonalize the operators Ĥk , to find a spectrum of eigenvalues {k,n } (along with the Bloch eigenfunctions {φkn }.) We then wind up with t ...
