Abstract

Multiple software packages currently exist for the computation of bulk topological invariants in both idealized tight-binding models and realistic Wannier tight-binding models derived from density functional theory. Currently, only one package is capable of computing nested Wilson loops and spin-resolved Wilson loops. These state-of-the-art techniques are vital for accurate analysis of band topology. In this paper we introduce BerryEasy, a python package harnessing the speed of graphical processing units to allow for efficient topological analysis of supercells in the presence of disorder and impurities. Moreover, the BerryEasy package has built-in functionality to accommodate use of realistic many-band tight-binding models derived from first-principles.
