Topology and Geometric Structure of Branching MERA Network

We examine a bulk-edge correspondence of branching MERA networks at finite temperatures in terms of algebraic and differential topology. By using homeomorphic mapping, we derive that the networks are nonorientable manifolds such as a M$\ddot{\rm o}$bius strip and a Klein bottle. We also examine the stability of the branch in connection with the second law of black hole thermodynamics. Then, we prove that the MERA network for one-dimensional quantum critical systems spontaneously separates into multiple branches in the IR region of the network. On the other hand, the branch does not occur in more than two dimensions. The result illustrates dimensionality dependence of spin-charge separation / coupling. We point out a role of twist of the surfaces on the phase string between spinon and holon excitations.
