This book offers a theoretical description of topological matter in
terms of effective field theories, and in particular topological
field theories, focusing on two main topics: topological
superconductors and topological insulators.Even though there is
vast literature on these subjects, the book fills an important gap
by providing a concise introduction to both topological order and
symmetry-protected phases using a modern mathematical language, and
developing the theoretical concepts by highlighting the physics and
the physical properties of the systems. Further, it discusses in
detail the topological interactions for topologically ordered
matter, and the response to smooth external fields for symmetry
protected matter. The book also covers more specialized topics that
cannot be found elsewhere. Specifically, the response of
superconductors to geometry, including the newly discovered
geo-Meissner effect; and a correction to the usual Meissner effect,
only present in the topologically interesting chiral
superconductors.
