Explore the finite temperature thermal Hall response of gapped topological quantum matter in this 37-minute conference talk from the Discussion Meeting on Fractionalized Quantum Matter at the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences. Delve into the thermal transport properties of topological phases at non-zero temperatures, examining how gapped systems exhibit unique thermal Hall effects that provide insights into their underlying topological nature. Learn about the theoretical framework for understanding thermal conductivity in quantum materials with non-trivial topology, including the role of edge states and bulk-boundary correspondence in thermal transport. Discover how temperature affects the thermal Hall response and what this reveals about the fractionalized excitations and entanglement structure of these exotic quantum phases. Gain insights into the connections between thermal transport measurements and the identification of topological quantum matter, particularly in the context of fractional quantum Hall systems and quantum spin liquids.
