Half-quantized helical hinge currents in axion insulators

Fractional quantization can emerge in noncorrelated systems due to the parity anomaly, while its condensed matter realization is a challenging problem. We propose that in axion insulators (AIs), parity anomaly manifests a unique fractional boundary excitation: the half-quantized helical hinge curren...
