Description

We discuss connections between models of magnetism exhibiting topological order and topological band insulators. In this context, we also explore interaction effects in topological insulators with particular emphasis on lattice models with Dirac and quadratic band crossing points in the non-interacting limit. Our work reveals connections between seemingly unrelated topological systems.
