摘要

我们描述了具有各种对称性的 2 × 2 简单（=非退化）矩阵空间中循环的同调类。这原来是 R3/{0} 中封闭曲线同调的一个基本练习。由于 R3/{0} 中的闭合曲线可以很容易地可视化，因此不需要代数拓扑学的高级工具。矩阵表示一维中的间隙布洛赫哈密顿，每个单元有一个二维的希尔伯特空间。

Homotopy of periodic 2 × 2 matrices

We describe the homotopy classes of loops in the space of 2 × 2 simple (=non-degenerate) matrices with various symmetries. This turns out to be an elementary exercise in the homotopy of closed curves in R3/{0}. Since closed curves in R3/{0} can be readily visualized, no advanced tools of algebraic topology are needed. The matrices represent gapped Bloch Hamiltonians in 1D with a two dimensional Hilbert space per unit cell.

期刊介绍： Since 1960, the Journal of Mathematical Physics (JMP) has published some of the best papers from outstanding mathematicians and physicists. JMP was the first journal in the field of mathematical physics and publishes research that connects the application of mathematics to problems in physics, as well as illustrates the development of mathematical methods for such applications and for the formulation of physical theories. The Journal of Mathematical Physics (JMP) features content in all areas of mathematical physics. Specifically, the articles focus on areas of research that illustrate the application of mathematics to problems in physics, the development of mathematical methods for such applications, and for the formulation of physical theories. The mathematics featured in the articles are written so that theoretical physicists can understand them. JMP also publishes review articles on mathematical subjects relevant to physics as well as special issues that combine manuscripts on a topic of current interest to the mathematical physics community. JMP welcomes original research of the highest quality in all active areas of mathematical physics, including the following: Partial Differential Equations Representation Theory and Algebraic Methods Many Body and Condensed Matter Physics Quantum Mechanics - General and Nonrelativistic Quantum Information and Computation Relativistic Quantum Mechanics, Quantum Field Theory, Quantum Gravity, and String Theory General Relativity and Gravitation Dynamical Systems Classical Mechanics and Classical Fields Fluids Statistical Physics Methods of Mathematical Physics.
