Title: Su-Schrieffer-Hegger (SSH) model with non-orientable bulk: Union of topology and flat bands in one dimension
(Submitted on 28 Feb 2023)
Abstract: In this letter we summarise our study of Su-Schrieffer-Hegger(SSH) model with a one dimensional non-orientable manifold as bulk. For this purpose a SSH model with any bulk (SAB) is introduced. We observe the following: (1) The topology of the SSH model is preserved even with a non-orientable bulk, (2) The appearance of a doubly degenerate flat band exactly at the Fermi level, (3) At half filling the band structure is metallic due to the complete overlap of valence and conduction band but the electrons will be localised because the bands are flat and (4) This system is unique because it has flat bands and at the same time is topologically non-trivial.
