Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The discovery of the quantum anomalous Hall effect (QAHE), characterized by zero magnetic field quantization in magnetically doped topological insulators, has established a crucial link between band topology and the quantum realm. This class of systems has evolved to encompass a diverse range of materials, including intrinsic topological antiferromagnets, Moiré heterostructures, and twisted bilayer systems. This expansion presents an unprecedented opportunity for the scientific community to explore the effects associated with non-trivial topological and quantum theories, incorporating Moiré magnetic spin, orbital spin, and flat-band many-body physics (such as fractional QAHE) within the realms of quantum information and quantum computation.
We invite original research articles, review papers, and perspectives from authors of various backgrounds focusing on, but not limited to, the following topics: theories for implementing QAHE in entanglement entropy, quantum information, and quantum computing. Additionally, we welcome contributions centered around the realization of novel QAHE states or quantum phenomena with potential significance in quantum information and quantum computing. Theoretical advancements aimed at enhancing properties to control topological quantum phase transitions and technological developments for controlling parameters for these purposes are also encouraged.
This Special Issue endeavors to establish a platform for discussion, fostering new ideas and proposal schemes for innovative types of measurements and applications utilizing topological quantum phase transitions, particularly the distinctive QAHE, as a foundation for studying topological entanglement and quantum information. Ultimately, this Special Issue calls for collaborative efforts from multidisciplinary teams to address symmetry and topological-order parameters relevant to entanglement and quantum information.
