Abstract

We study the propagation of wavepackets along curved interfaces between topological, magnetic materials. Our Hamiltonian is a massive Dirac operator with a magnetic potential. We construct semiclassical wavepackets propagating along the curved interface as adiabatic modulations of straight edge states under constant magnetic fields. While in the magnetic-free case, the wavepackets propagate coherently at speed one, here they experience slowdown, dispersion, and Aharonov-Bohm effects. Several numerical simulations illustrate our results.
