Rigorous analysis of the topologically protected edge states in the quantum spin Hall phase of the armchair ribbon geometry
Abstract Studying the edge states of a topological system and extracting their topological properties is of great importance in understanding and characterizing these systems. In this paper, we present a novel analytical approach for obtaining explicit expressions for the edge states in the Kane-Mel...
