摘要
We study the two-dimensional Chern insulator and spin Hall insulator on a nonorientable Riemann surface, the Mobius strip, where the usual band-structure topological invariant is not defined. We show that while the flow pattern of edge currents can detect the twist of the Mobius strip in the case of Chern insulator, it can not do so for the spin Hall insulator.
