Wu et al., Science 354, 83 (2016)], the PKU-USTC group realized a two-dimensional two-band quantum anomalous Hall model on a square Raman lattice. By quenching the atom-laser detuning of such a Raman lattice, the time-dependent Bloch vectors for each quasimomentum points define a Hopf mapping from quasimomentum-time space $(k_x,k_y,t)\\in T^3$ to the Bloch sphere $S^2$. The Hopf links between the preimages of any two Bloch vectors on $S^2$ can be measured experimentally through Bloch state tomography using spin-resolved time-of-flight measurement together with "},"claims":{"count":0,"items":[],"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"source":{"id":"1804.10358","kind":"arxiv","version":2},"verdict":{"id":null,"model_set":{},"created_at":null,"strongest_claim":"","one_line_summary":"","pipeline_version":null,"weakest_assumption":"","pith_extraction_headline":""},"references":{"count":0,"sample":[],"resolved_work":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57","internal_anchors":0},"formal_canon":{"evidence_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"author_claims":{"count":0,"strong_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"builder_version":"pith-number-builder-2026-05-17-v1"}
