Quantum Magnetism in Wannier-Obstructed Mott Insulators

We develop a strong coupling approach towards quantum magnetism in Mott insulators for Wannier-obstructed bands. Despite the lack of Wannier orbitals, electrons can still singly occupy a set of exponentially localized but nonorthogonal orbitals to minimize the repulsive interaction energy. We develo...
