After this preamble, the thesis goes on to study the Creutz ladder, a rich quasi-1D topological model that presents some exotic properties like flat bands, hidden symmetries, protecting particle-hole symmetries and a range of different topological edge states. We also study other related models with more unusual kinds of topological features, like square-root topology or tunable symmetries. Finally, we investigate the use of topological domain walls in several 1D topological insulators in order to speed-up and improve the performance of transfer protocols between their boundaries. We study their robustness against disorder and their applications in the field of entanglement distribution, proposing a protocol to create maximally entangled multipartite states.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003eJuan Zurita got his PhD in 2025 from Universidad Complutense de Madrid, while working at the Materials Science Institute of Madrid (ICMM-CSIC). His research focuses on unusual symmetries in topological insulators, and the quantum information applications of these models. He was born in Alcalá de Henares, Madrid, and he has always been interested in how the universe works. He is currently a postdoctoral researcher at IFIMAC (UAM). In his free time, he enjoys playing piano, reading and playing board games.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e21 October 2026\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpringer Nature Switzerland\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpringer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9783032388599\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e194\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Springer Nature Switzerland","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51948262064268,"sku":"9783032388599","price":179.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783032388599.jpg?v=1786041178","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783032388599","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
