However, the terminology used is far from clear and some equations come out from nowhere. There are few mistakes in the equations and the physical explanations behind topological insulators are forgotten throughout a vast quantity of equations - however, this may be|||From the reviews:|“The book is devoted to the study of a large family of topological insulators and superconductors based on the solutions of the Dirac equation … . this book combines clear physical approaches and strict mathematics. It is very i
Topological insulators are insulating in the bulk, but process metallic states present around its boundary owing to the topological origin of the band structure. The metallic edge or surface states are immune to weak disorder or impurities, and robust against the deformation of the system geometry. This book, the first of its kind on topological insulators, presents a unified description of topological insulators from one to three dimensions based on the modified Dira...
