Measuring topology from dynamics by obtaining the Chern number from a linking number

The connection between the topological properties of the ground state and non-equilibrium dynamics remains obscure. Here, Tarnowski et al. define and measure a linking number between static and dynamical vortices, which directly corresponds to the ground-state Chern number.
