Topological phase transition in the quench dynamics of a one-dimensional Fermi gas with spin–orbit coupling

We study the quench dynamics of a one-dimensional ultracold Fermi gas with synthetic spin-orbit coupling. At equilibrium, the ground state of the system can undergo a topological phase transition and become a topological superfluid with Majorana edge states. As the interaction is quenched near the t...
