30 Band Hamiltonian describes a spin in an effective magnetic field Ĥ k = h k ˆσ band gap h k 0 ν is the number of times h k h k wraps the sphere in the BZ e.g. BZ of the honeycomb lattice The spins precess in new h k, but preserve their winding number [D Alessio & Rigol, arxiv: ]

Atala, M. Aidelsburger, M. Lohse, J. T. Barreiro, B. Paredes & I. Bloch, Nat. Phys. 10, 588 (2014)] [Local version (microscope) should show light-cone spreading]
41 Summary Optical lattices allow dynamical changes in the topology of energy bands. For a BEC, the evolution can be adiabatic: allows adiabatic preparation dense vortex lattices. For fermionic band insulators, the dynamics is non-adiabatic: the Chern number of the state is preserved; edge currents quickly relax to (close to) the equilibrium for the new Hamiltonian. Out of equilibrium there can be a sharp distinction between the topology of the state and local observables.
