Exotic Lifshitz transitions in topological materials
read the original abstract
Topological Lifshitz transitions involve many types of topological structures in momentum and frequency-momentum spaces: Fermi surfaces, Dirac lines, Dirac and Weyl points, etc. Each of these structures has their own topological invariant ($N_1$, $N_2$, $N_3$, $\tilde N_3$, etc.), which supports the stability of a given topological structure. The topology of the shape of Fermi surfaces and Dirac lines, as well as the interconnection of the objects of different dimensions, lead to numerous classes of Lifshitz transitions. The consequences of Lifshitz transitions are important in different areas of physics. The singularities emerging at the transition may enhance the transition temperature to superconductivity; the Lifshitz transition can be in the origin of the small masses of elementary particles in our Universe; the black hole horizon serves as the surface of Lifshitz transition between the vacua with type-I and type-II Weyl points; etc.
