Correlated Chern insulators in two-dimensional Raman lattices: A cold-atom regularization of strongly coupled four-Fermi field theories
We show that synthetic spin-orbit coupling for ultracold atoms in optical Raman potentials can be exploited to build versatile quantum simulators of correlated Chern insulators connected to strongly coupled four-Fermi field theories similar to the Gross-Neveu model in (2+1) dimensions. Exploiting th...
