文摘We propose a method to construct Hopf insulators based on the study of topological defects from the geometric perspective of Hopf invariant I.Firstly,we prove two types of topological defects naturally inhering in the inner differential structure of the Hopf mapping.One type is the four-dimensional point defects.
