Fractional Chern Insulators in Topological Flat Bands with Higher Chern Number

Fractional Chern Insulators in Topological Flat Bands with Higher Chern Number

Lattice models forming bands with higher Chern number offer an intriguing possibility for new phases of matter with no analogue in continuum Landau levels. Here, we establish the existence of a number of new bulk insulating states at fractional filling in flat bands with a Chern number C = N …
