Bulk and Boundary Invariants for Complex Topological Insulators: From K-Theory to Physics
Abstract
This monograph offers an overview on the topological invariants in fermionic topological insulators from the complex classes. Tools from K-theory and non-commutative geometry are used to define bulk and boundary invariants, to establish the bulk-boundary correspondence and to link the invariants to physical observables.
