Description This book provides an introduction to Topological matter with a focus on insulating bulk systems.
The main part of the book discusses realistic models for both time-reversal-preserving and -violating Topological insulators, as well as their characteristic responses to e.
A number of prerequisite concepts and tools are first laid out, including the notion of symmetry transformations, the band theory of semiconductors and aspects of electronic transport.
