Understanding Topological Insulators in Real Space
A real space understanding of the Su–Schrieffer–Heeger model of polyacetylene is introduced thanks to delocalization indices defined within the quantum theory of atoms in molecules. This approach enables to go beyond the analysis of electron localization usually enabled by topological insulator indi...
