Abstract

Symmetry invariants of a group specify the classes of quasiparticles, namely the classes of projective irreducible co-representations in systems having that symmetry. More symmetry invariants exist in discrete point groups than the full rotation group O(3), leading to new quasiparticles restricted to lattices that do not have any counterpart in a vacuum. We focus on the fermionic quasiparticle excitations under "spin-space group" symmetries, applicable to materials where long-range magnetic order and itinerant electrons coexist. We provide a list of 218 classes of new quasiparticles that can only be realized in the spin-space groups. These quasiparticles have at least one of the following properties that are qualitatively distinct from those discovered in magnetic space group(MSG)s, and distinct from each other:(i) degree of degeneracy,(ii) dispersion as function of momentum, and(iii) rules of coupling to external probe fields. We rigorously prove this result as a theorem that directly relates these properties to the symmetry invariants, and then illustrate this theorem with a concrete example, by comparing three 12-fold fermions having different sets of symmetry invariants including one discovered in MSG. Our approach can be generalized to realize more quasiparticles whose little co-groups are beyond those considered in our work.

摘要

一个群的对称不变量确定了准粒子的类别,即在具有该对称性的系统中射影不可约共表示的类别。离散点群中存在的对称不变量比全旋转群O(3)更多,这导致了新的准粒子,它们局限于晶格中,在真空中没有任何对应物。我们关注“自旋空间群”对称性下的费米子准粒子激发,适用于长程磁序和巡游电子共存的材料。我们列出了218类只能在自旋空间群中实现的新准粒子。这些准粒子具有至少以下一种性质,这些性质在定性上与在磁空间群(MSG)中发现的性质不同,并且彼此不同:(i)简并度,(ii)作为动量函数的色散,以及(iii)与外部探测场耦合的规则。我们将此结果严格证明为一个定理,该定理将这些性质直接与对称不变量相关联,然后通过比较三个具有不同对称不变量集的12重费米子(包括在MSG中发现的一个),用一个具体例子说明该定理。我们的方法可以推广以实现更多其小余群超出我们工作中所考虑的准粒子。
