The compiled record

The paper's own sentences, arranged. Each label is drawn from a closed vocabulary; the number beside it is the probability the classifier gave that label. Numbers in the tables are the authors', checked by code. No sentence in this record was written by a model.

  • One particular example of exotic excitation with fraction charge is the fractional fermions (FFs) or Jackiw-Rebbi modes (JRMs) [ref] where it was shown that one-dimensional (1D) Dirac field coupled to a static background soliton field gives rise to fractional charge excitations [ref] localized about the mass domain wall.

  • Such systems offer a contrast to the classical broken symmetry paradigm built around the notion of an order parameter introduced by Landau and these phases said to be topological or deconfined [ref] as they also exhibit quasiparticles with fractional quantum numbers [ref] .
