Abstract

In this chapter, we introduce modern gap classification theory using group theory (representation theory) and topological argument. First, in Sect. 2.1, we make a remark about some terminologies and notations of finite-group representation theory, which are used throughout the thesis, for the avoidance of confusion. In Sect. 2.2, we introduce the group-theoretical analysis of the superconducting gap on high-symmetry points in the BZ [111]. Next, we explain the topological classification of nodes on the high-symmetry points by using the Wigner criteria and the orthogonality test in Sect. 2.3 [1215]. Also, an intuitive understanding of the classification methods is given by showing simple examples (Sect. 2.4).

Indeed, our topological classification theory (Sect. 2.3) can also be applied to other cases, e.g., noncentrosymmetric superconductors.

Strictly speaking, \(\alpha \) is a double-valued IR of the finite group \(\bar{\mathcal {M}}^{\varvec{k}} = \mathcal {M}^{\varvec{k}} / \mathbb {T}\) while \(j_z\) is a basis of the continuous group. Therefore there is no one-to-one correspondence between \(\alpha \) and \(j_z\) in some cases. In the \(C_{2v}\) symmetry, for example, the IR \(\alpha = 1 / 2\) includes all normal Bloch states with half-integer total angular momentum \(j_z = \pm 1 / 2, \pm 3 / 2, \pm 5 / 2, \dotsc \). In this thesis, however, we represent \(j_z\) with minimum absolute value, which satisfies \(j_z \downarrow \bar{\mathcal {M}}^{\varvec{k}} = \alpha \), as the angular-momentum counterpart of the IR \(\alpha \).

The factor system also satisfies the 2-cocycle condition:
$$\begin{aligned} \omega _{\text {ns}}^{l_1 l_2 l_3\varvec{k}}(l_1, l_2) \omega _{\text {ns}}^{l_1 l_2 l_3\varvec{k}}(l_1 l_2, l_3) = \omega _{\text {ns}}^{l_1 l_2 l_3\varvec{k}}(l_1, l_2 l_3) \omega _{\text {ns}}^{l_2 l_3\varvec{k}}(l_2, l_3)^{\phi (l_1)}. \end{aligned}$$

Here,
$$\begin{aligned} (\mathcal {I} \bar{g} \mathcal {I}) c_{\alpha j}^\dagger (\varvec{k}) (\mathcal {I} \bar{g} \mathcal {I})^{- 1}&= \sum _{j_1} (\mathcal {I} \bar{g}) c_{\alpha j_1}^\dagger (\mathcal {I} \varvec{k}) (\mathcal {I} \bar{g})^{- 1} [\bar{u}_\alpha ^{\varvec{k}}(\mathcal {I})]_{j_1 j} \\&= \sum _{j_1, j_2} \mathcal {I} c_{\alpha j_2}^\dagger (\bar{g} \mathcal {I} \varvec{k}) \mathcal {I}^{- 1} [\bar{u}_\alpha ^{\mathcal {I} \varvec{k}}(\bar{g})]_{j_2 j_1} [\bar{u}_\alpha ^{\varvec{k}}(\mathcal {I})]_{j_1 j} \\&= \sum _{j_1, j_2, j_3} c_{\alpha j_3}^\dagger (\mathcal {I} \bar{g} \mathcal {I} \varvec{k}) [\bar{u}_\alpha ^{\bar{g} \mathcal {I} \varvec{k}}(\mathcal {I})]_{j_3 j_2} [\bar{u}_\alpha ^{\mathcal {I} \varvec{k}}(\bar{g})]_{j_2 j_1} [\bar{u}_\alpha ^{\varvec{k}}(\mathcal {I})]_{j_1 j} \\&= \omega ^{\mathcal {I} \bar{g} \mathcal {I} \varvec{k}}(\mathcal {I}, \bar{g}) \omega ^{\mathcal {I} \bar{g} \mathcal {I} \varvec{k}}(\mathcal {I} \bar{g}, \mathcal {I}) \sum _{j_3} c_{\alpha j_3}^\dagger (\mathcal {I} \bar{g} \mathcal {I} \varvec{k}) [\bar{u}_\alpha ^{\varvec{k}}(\overline{\mathcal {I} g \mathcal {I}})]_{j_3 j} \\&= \frac{\omega ^{\varvec{k}}(\mathcal {I}, \bar{g})}{\omega ^{\varvec{k}}(\bar{g}, \mathcal {I})} \sum _{j'} c_{\alpha j'}^\dagger (\varvec{k}) [\bar{\lambda }_\alpha ^{\varvec{k}}(\bar{g})]_{j' j}, \end{aligned}$$
where we use \(\mathcal {I} \bar{g} \mathcal {I} \in \mathcal {G}^{\varvec{k}}\) and \(\overline{\mathcal {I} g \mathcal {I}} = \bar{g}\) in the last equal.

Taking into account the factor system in Eqs. (2.32) and (2.40), we can easily derive it by the following commutation relation:
$$\begin{aligned}{}[u(\Gamma ), u(\mathcal {M}_z)]&= \omega _{\text {in}}(\mathfrak {T}, \mathfrak {C})^{- 1} \{ u(\mathfrak {T}) u(\mathfrak {C})^* u(\mathcal {M}_z) - u(\mathcal {M}_z) u(\mathfrak {T}) u(\mathfrak {C})^* \} \\&= \omega _{\text {in}}(\mathfrak {T}, \mathfrak {C})^{- 1} \{ u(\mathfrak {T}) u(\mathfrak {C})^* u(\mathcal {M}_z) - u(\mathfrak {T}) u(\mathcal {M}_z)^* u(\mathfrak {C})^* \} \\&= \omega _{\text {in}}(\mathfrak {T}, \mathfrak {C})^{- 1} \{ u(\mathfrak {T}) u(\mathfrak {C})^* u(\mathcal {M}_z) - u(\mathfrak {T}) u(\mathfrak {C})^* u(\mathcal {M}_z) \} = 0, \end{aligned}$$
where we use \(\Gamma = \mathcal {T C} = \mathfrak {T C}\).
