Topological invariants for holographic semimetals
We study the behavior of fermion spectral functions for the holographic
topological Weyl and nodal line semimetals. We calculate the topological
invariants from the Green functions of both holographic semimetals using the
topological Hamiltonian method, which calculates topological invariants of
strongly interacting systems from an effective Hamiltonian system with the same
topological structure. Nontrivial topological invariants for both systems have
been obtained and the presence of nontrivial topological invariants further
supports the topological nature of the holographic semimetals.Comment: 39 pages, 11 figures, 1 table; v2: match published versio
