| contents | Wave propagation in periodic media is governed by energy-momentum relation and geometric phases characterizing band topology, such as Zak phase in one-dimensional lattices. We demonstrate that in the off-diagonal trimer lattices Zak phase carries quantized screw-type dislocations winding around degeneracies in parameter space. If the lattice evolves in time periodically, as in adiabatic Thouless pump, corresponding closed trajectory in parameter space is characterized by a Chern number equal the negative total winding number of Zak phase dislocations enclosed by the trajectory. We discuss correspondence between bulk Chern numbers and the edge-states in a finite system evolving along various pumping cycles. |
