摘要

Several materials in the regime of strong spin-orbit interaction such as HgTe, the pyrochlore iridate Pr_2Ir_2O_7, and the half-Heusler compound LaPtBi, as well as various systems related to these three prototype materials, are believed to host a quadratic band touching point at the Fermi level. Recently, it has been proposed that such a three-dimensional gapless state is unstable to a Mott-insulating ground state at low temperatures when the number of band touching points N at the Fermi level is smaller than a certain critical number N_c. We further substantiate and quantify this scenario by various approaches. Using Є expansion near two spatial dimensions, we show that N_c = 64/(25Є~2) + 0(1 /Є) and demonstrate that the instability for N < N_c is towards a nematic ground state that can be understood as if the system were under (dynamically generated) uniaxial strain. We also propose a truncation of the functional renormalization group equations in the dynamical bosonization scheme which we show to agree to one-loop order with the results from Є expansion both near two as well as near four dimensions, and which smoothly interpolates between these two perturbatively accessible limits for general 2 < d < 4. Directly in d = 3 we therewith find N_c = 1.86, and thus again above the physical N = 1. All these results are consistent with the prediction that the interacting ground state of pure, unstrained HgTe, and possibly also Pr_2Ir_2O_7, is a strong topological insulator with a dynamically generated gap-a topological Mott insulator.
