Recent cold atom experiments have realized one-dimensional anyons and enabled the tuning of 1D~statistics between bosons and fermions. Here, we analyze the symmetries, integrability, and resulting degeneracies of the underlying…
In static lattice systems, the Nielsen-Ninomiya theorem enforces the pairing of Weyl points with opposite chiralities, which precludes the chiral magnetic effect (CME) in equilibrium. Periodic driving provides a viable route to circumvent…
Cold-atom experiments which measure Fermi-gas properties near unitarity confine fermionic atoms to a region of space using trapping potentials of various shapes. The presence of a trapping potential introduces a new characteristic physical…
We investigate anomalously slow coarsening in a dilute two-dimensional (2d) superfluid closed with respect to particle and energy exchange with the environment. The dynamics is demonstrated to be closely connected to both, a non-thermal…
We investigate Josephson transport in a fully closed, two-dimensional superfluid circuit formed by a ring-shaped 87Rb Bose-Einstein condensate that contains two optical barriers acting as movable weak links. Translating these barriers at…
We study the dynamics of a driven atomic Josephson junction that we propose as a parametric amplifier. By periodically modulating the position of the barrier, we induce a small current across the junction, serving as our input signal. The…
Quantum gases with short-range attractive interaction have a tendency to form pairs. For time-dependent interaction we find that the pairing amplitude at small separation satisfies a fractional differential equation (FDE). We derive…
We investigate wetting phenomena between self-bound quantum fluids in a three-component Bose mixture of $^{23}$Na, $^{39}$K, and $^{41}$K atoms. Within a density-functional approach including mean-field interactions and Lee-Huang-Yang…
We use bosonization to analyze the ground state Hall response of interacting bosonic N-leg ladders threaded by a flux. We derive an explicit expression of the Hall imbalance in a perturbative expansion in the band curvature, retaining fully…
Acoustic horizons in Bose--Einstein condensates are usually characterized through long-wavelength Bogoliubov phonons. We study a nonlinear counterpart: whether a one-dimensional dark-soliton branch can sustain upstream laboratory motion in…
Precision interferometry with atomic wavepackets confined in a one-dimensional optical lattice is an emergent paradigm in quantum sensing of forces and fields, with applications in gravimetry, accelerometry, geophysics, and fundamental…
We investigate the interaction-induced resistivity of ultracold fermions in a three-dimensional optical lattice. In situ observations of transport dynamics enable the determination of real and imaginary resistivity. In the strongly…
Resistance in standard conductors decreases with increasing cross-section. Yet, in low-dimensional superconductors and superfluids residual resistance arises from topological fluctuations of the order parameter manifesting as phase slips in…
This study explores the dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) with helicoidal spin-orbit coupling (SOC) and Rabi coupling, confined under a two-dimensional harmonic potential. The relationship between helicoidal SOC, non-linear…
The unitary Fermi gas serves as a tunable realization of a strongly coupled CFT, making it a powerful system for probing universal quantum many-body phenomena. Precise measurement of its properties remains experimentally challenging:…
The superfluid-insulator transition in systems of lattice bosons is usually analyzed in the framework of the Bose-Hubbard model, and has been extensively studied by theory and simulations. Less attention has been paid to the remnants of the…
The interplay between interactions and quantum geometry can drive weakly dispersive bosons into different exotic many-body phases. In this work we study a quasi flat-band model in one dimension that exhibits an extended pair-superfluid…
We derive the canonical-ensemble scaling of Tan's contact for $N$ harmonically trapped Tonks--Girardeau bosons at finite temperature in the large-$N$ limit. The leading scaling coefficient reproduces the local-density-approximation result…
Coherent light-matter coupling via STIRAP can offer a versatile route to nucleate quantized vortices in Bose-Einstein condensates, yet its efficacy in dipolar condensates remains an open question. Can the orbital angular momentum of a…
Lattice impurities have recently emerged as a platform in which polarons unveil new quantum many-body states absent in free space and can serve to probe strongly correlated matter. In this work, we investigate two-dimensional lattice…
