Abstract:We investigate interplay of topological and Kondo effects in a one-dimensional Kondo–Heisenberg model with nontrivial conduction band using the density matrix renormalization group method. By analyzing the density profile, the local hybridization, and the spin/charge gap, we find that the Kondo effect can be destructed at edges of the chain by the topological end state below a finite critical Kondo coupling $J_{\scriptscriptstyle{\rm K}}^{\rm c}$. We construct a phase diagram characterizing the transition of the end states.
