Topological phases in twisted transition metal dichalcogenides: a DMRG study

The recent experimental observations of fractional quantum anomalous Hall (FQAH) effects in twisted bilayer MoTe2 have attracted considerable attention. We use large-scale density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) simulation to study twisted transition metal dichalcogenides (tTMD) at fractional fillings. We have identified various interesting phases of matter, including a series of fractional quantum Hall states.
