Spin texture as a bulk indicator of fragile topology

We study the relationship between momentum-space spin textures projected onto the occupied bands and Wilson loop winding, proving a map between band topology and spin topology in certain restricted symmetry settings relevant to fragile topology. Our results suggest that, in specific scenarios, the s...
