| contents | The interplay and competition of topology and electron-electron interactions have fascinated researchers since the discovery of topological insulators. The Su-Schrieffer-Heeger-Hubbard (SSSHH) model is a prototypical model which includes both non-trivial topology and interactions. Due to its simplicity, there are several artificial quantum systems which can realize such a model to a good approximation. Here we focus on the quarter-filled case, where interactions and dimerization open a charge gap. In particular, we study the single-particle spectral function for the extended SSHH model with magnetic field and explore several parameter limits where effective model descriptions arise. In the strongly-dimerized limit, we show that the low-energy excitations of the spectral function resemble a half-filled Hubbard model with effective dimer sites and renormalized couplings. For strong magnetic field and interactions, we find physics akin to the spinless Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model at half filling, featuring a non-interacting topological phase transition. Moreover, in light of the recent realization of this model in quantum dot simulation, we provide evidence for the stability of the topological phase towards moderate non-local interactions in the experimentally expected parameter range. |
