a Valley Hall response σV (blue points) obtained from averaging the local marker per cell \({\mathfrak{S}}({{{{{{{\bf{r}}}}}}}})={{\mathfrak{S}}}_{A}({{{{{{{\bf{r}}}}}}}})+{{\mathfrak{S}}}_{B}({{{{{{{\bf{r}}}}}}}})\) in a bulk region of size Lbulk = 5 a (a is the lattice parameter) as a function of the chemical potential μF. The gray shaded area shows the density of states projected onto the bulk region at the Fermi level ρbulk(μF). b, The local density of states ρ(μF, r) along \({{{{{{{\bf{r}}}}}}}}={x}_{c}\hat{{{{{{{{\bf{x}}}}}}}}}+y\hat{{{{{{{{\bf{y}}}}}}}}}\) for μF = 0.52 t and μF = 0.7 t, respectively, indicated by black dashed lines in (a).
