Main theorem Gapped system and K -theory Equivariant twist K-theory of the torus equivariant under the 2-dimensional crystallographic point groups Kiyonori Gomi Oct 21, 2015
Main theorem Gapped system and K -theory Equivariant twist The theme of my talk The equivariant K -theory of the torus acted by the point group of each 2 -dimensional space groups, or equivalently the finite subgroups of the mapping class group GL (2 , Z ) . My talk is based on joint works with Ken Shiozaki and Masatoshi Sato. Our computational result will be the main theorem. The computation is motivated by the classification of 3 -dimensional topological crystalline insulators.

Main theorem Gapped system and K -theory Equivariant twist The space group As is well-known, the group of isometries of R d is the semi-direct product of O ( d ) and R d : 1 → R d → O ( d ) ⋉ R d → O ( d ) → 1 . A d -dimensional space group (crystallographic group) is a subgroup S , → R d − → O ( d ) ⋉ R d − 1 − → O ( d ) − → 1 ∪ ∪ ∪ 1 − → Π − → S − → P − → 1 , such that = Z d of translations, S contains a rank d lattice Π ∼ the point group P = S/ Π is a finite subgroup of O ( d ) .

S is called symmorphic if it is a semi-direct product. S is called nonsymmorphic if not. In the nonsymmorphic case, S contains for example a glide, which is a translation along a line ℓ followed by a mirror reflection with respect to ℓ .
Main theorem Gapped system and K -theory Equivariant twist The space group The space groups are identified if they are conjugate under the affine group R d ⋉ GL + ( d, R ) . d = 2 ⇒ 17 classes. d = 3 ⇒ 230 classes. · · · In the case of d = 2 , the space group is also called the plane symmetry group, the wallpaper group, etc. To denote the 17 classes of space groups, I will follow: D. Schattschneider, The plane symmetry groups: their recognition and their notation. American Mathematical Monthly 85 (1978), no.6 439–450.

Main theorem Gapped system and K -theory Equivariant twist The point group acts on T 2 Naturally, the point group P = S/ Π acts on the 2 -dimensional torus T 2 = R 2 / Π . By this construction, we get all the 13 classes of finite subgroups in the mapping class group GL (2 , Z ) of T 2 .

Main theorem Gapped system and K -theory Equivariant twist Nonsymmorphic space group and twist It happens that a symmorphic group and a nonsymmorphic group share the same point group P . If a space group is nonsymmorphic, then there is an associated group 2 -cocycle with values in the group C ( T 2 , U (1)) of U (1) -valued functions, which is regarded as a right module over the point group P . Such group cocycles provide equivariant twists, namely the data playing roles of local systems for equivariant K -theory, classified by F 2 H 3 P ( T 2 ; Z ) ⊂ H 3 P ( T 2 ; Z ) . (This classification of twists will be reviewed later.)

Main theorem Gapped system and K -theory Equivariant twist Main result Associated to an action of a finite group P on T 2 and an equivariant twist τ on T 2 , we have the P -equivariant τ -twisted K -theory K τ + n ( T 2 ) ∼ = K τ + n +2 ( T 2 ) . P P The equivariant twisted K -theory is a module over the representation ring R ( P ) = K 0 P (pt) . Our main result is the determination of the R ( P ) -module structure of K τ + n ( T 2 ) , where P n = 0 , 1 , P ranges the point groups of the 2d space groups, τ ranges twists classified by F 2 H 3 P ( T 2 ; Z ) . In the following, the module structure will be omitted.

Main theorem Gapped system and K -theory Equivariant twist Some comments: twists There are twists which cannot be realized as group cocycles. The equivariant K -theories twisted by such twists are not completely computed yet. The role of such a twist in condensed matter seems to be open.
Main theorem Gapped system and K -theory Equivariant twist Some comments : Z 2 Recall that there appeared Z 2 -summands: K τ +0 K τ +1 ( T 2 ) ( T 2 ) label P τ P P pg D 1 τ pg Z ⊕ Z 2 Z Z ⊕ 3 pgg D 2 τ pgg , τ pgg + c Z 2 A consequence is that these Z 2 -summands imply a ‘new’ class of topological insulators which are: classified by Z 2 , { time-reversal realized without the symmetries. particle-hole (The well-known topological insulators classified by Z 2 correspond to KR − 1 (pt) = Z 2 or KR − 2 (pt) = Z 2 , and are realized with TRS or PHS.) This is detailed in PRB B91, 155120 (2015).
