Using a beyond-mean-field model including a Lee-Huang-Yang-type interaction, we demonstrate a supersolid-like spatially-periodic square- and triangular-lattice crystallization of droplets in a polarized dipolar condensate confined by an…
We study the bound states of $N$ identical bosons that are described by a multiband Bose-Hubbard model with generic hoppings and an attractive onsite interaction. Using a variational approach, we first derive exact integral equations for…
The study of confinement in quantum spin chains has seen a large surge of interest in recent years. It is not only important for understanding a range of effective one-dimensional condensed matter realizations, but also shares some of the…
We investigate the ground-state phase diagram of the one-dimensional attractive Fermi-Hubbard model with spin-dependent hoppings and an on-site Rabi coupling using the density matrix renormalization group method. In particular, we show that…
We determine and analyze collective normal modes of a finite disk-shaped two-dimensional vortex crystal formed in a compressible bosonic superfluid in an artificial magnetic field. Using the microscopic Gross-Pitaevskii theory in the lowest…
Hydrodynamic theories offer successful approaches that are capable of simulating the otherwise difficult-to-compute dynamics of quantum many-body systems. In this work we derive, within the positive-P phase-space formalism, a new stochastic…
We investigate the production of s-wave scattering halos from collisions between the momentum components of a Bose-Einstein condensate released from an optical lattice. The lattice periodicity translates in a momentum comb responsible for…
We review our theoretical results about the sound propagation in two-dimensional (2D) systems of ultracold fermionic and bosonic atoms. In the superfluid phase, characterized by the spontaneous symmetry breaking of the $U(1)$ symmetry,…
We present a general discussion of the dipole modes of a heteronuclear bosonic mixture in a harmonic trap by comparing the prediction of the sum-rule approach with full Gross-Pitaevskii (GP) calculations. Yet in the range of interaction in…
In this work, we consider a Bose-Einstein condensate in the self-focusing regime, confined transversely by a funnel-like potential and axially by a double-well potential formed by the combination of two inverted P\"oschl-Teller potentials.…
Topological gauge theories describe the low-energy properties of certain strongly correlated quantum systems through effective weakly interacting models. A prime example is the Chern-Simons theory of fractional quantum Hall states, where…
We study the two-body bound states in a spin-orbital-angular-momentum (SOAM) coupled quantum gas of fermions. Two different configurations are considered: an attractive $s$-wave interaction exists between two spin species that are SOAM…
We investigate the Fermi-Hubbard model with a Floquet-driven impurity in the form of a local time-oscillating potential. For strong attractive interactions a stable formation of pairs is observed. These pairs show a completely different…
We present observations of the high momentum tail in expanding Bose-Einstein condensates of metastable Helium atoms released from a harmonic trap. The far-field density profile exhibits features that support identification of the tails of…
We demonstrate the presence of an optical phase transition with frustration-induced spontaneous symmetry breaking in a triangular planar atomic array due to cooperative light-mediated interactions. We show how the array geometry of triangle…
The extensive control of spin makes spintronics a promising candidate for future scalable quantum devices. For the generation of spin-superfluid systems, a detailed understanding of the build-up of coherence and relaxation is necessary.…
We analyze the dynamics of both population and spin densities, emerging from the spatial overlap between two distinct polar bright solitons in Spin-1 Spinor Condensates. The dynamics of overlapping solitons in scalar condensates exhibits…
We analyze the ground-state entanglement entropy of the extended Bose-Hubbard model with infinite-range interactions. This model describes the low-energy dynamics of ultracold bosons tightly bound to an optical lattice and dispersively…
Andreev-Bashkin drag plays a very important role in multiple areas like superfluid mixtures, superconductors and dense nuclear matter. Here, we point out that the drag phenomenon can be also important in physics of solitons, ubiquitous…
In the presence of interactions, periodically-driven quantum systems generically thermalize to an infinite-temperature state. Recently, however, it was shown that in random kicked rotors with local interactions, this long-time equilibrium…
