Topological paramagnetism in frustrated spin-1 Mott insulators

Time-reversal-protected three-dimensional (3D) topological paramagnets are magnetic analogs of the celebrated 3D topological insulators. Such paramagnets have a bulk gap and no exotic bulk excitations, but have non-trivial surface states protected by symmetry. We propose that frustrated spin-1 quant...
