Real-space effects of a quench in the Su–Schrieffer–Heeger model and elusive dynamical appearance of the topological edge states
The topological phase of the Su–Schrieffer–Heeger (SSH) model is known to exhibit two edge states that are topologically protected by the chiral symmetry. We demonstrate that, for any parameter quench performed on the half-filled SSH chain, the occupancy of each lattice site remains locked to 1/2 at...
