Gapped Boundary Phases of Topological Insulators via Weak Coupling
read the original abstract
The standard boundary state of a topological insulator in 3+1 dimensions has gapless charged fermions. We present model systems that reproduce this standard gapless boundary state in one phase, but also have gapped phases with topological order. Our models are weakly coupled and all the dynamics is explicit. We rederive some known boundary states of topological insulators and construct new ones. Consistency with the standard spin/charge relation of condensed matter physics places a nontrivial constraint on models.

Hidden weak-pairing superconductivity of non-interacting anyons obeying $\frac{1}{3}$ statistics
Non-interacting charge-e/3 anyons with θ=-π/3 statistics superconduct via a hidden weak-pairing state of three-pocket composite fermions that realizes a chiral f-if superconductor with edge central charge c_-=-1/2.

Taste-splitting mass and edge modes in $3+1$ D staggered fermions
A kink in a one-link mass term for 3+1D staggered fermions creates a 2+1D domain wall with two-flavor massless Dirac fermions protected by SU(2) and parity, realizing the parity anomaly from the UV lattice Hamiltonian.
