We propose to study novel quantum phases and excitations for a 2D spin-orbit (SO) coupled bosonic $p$-orbital optical lattice based on the recent experiments. The orbital and spin degrees of freedom with SO coupling compete and bring about…
Based on the Zhang-Rice singlet picture, it is argued that the half-skyrmion is created by the doped hole in the single hole doped high-T_c cuprates with N'eel ordering. The spin configuration around the Zhang-Rice singlet, which has the…
A unified theory for the cuprates and the iron-based superconductors is derived on the basis of common features in their electronic structures including quasi-two-dimensionality, and the large-U nature of the electron orbitals close to E_F…
The physics of doped Mott insulators is at the heart of strongly correlated materials and is believed to constitute an essential ingredient for high-temperature superconductivity. In systems with higher SU(N) spin symmetries, even richer…
We investigate doping of a two-orbital chain with mobile $S=1/2$ fermions as a valid model for $\rm Y_{2-x}Ca_xBaNiO_5$. The S=1 spins are stabilized by strong, ferromagnetic (fm) Hund's rule couplings. We calculate correlation functions…
We apply the finite-temperature variational cluster approach to a strongly correlated and spin-orbit coupled model for four electrons (i.e. two holes) in the $t_{2g}$ subshell. We focus on parameters suitable for antiferromagnetic Mott…
A ferrimagnetic spin model composed of $S=1/2$ spin-dimers and $S=5/2$ spin-chains is studied by combining the bond-operator representation (for $S=1/2$ spin-dimers) and Holstein-Primakoff transformation (for $S=5/2$ spins). A finite…
Quantum simulations can provide new insights into the physics of strongly correlated electronic systems. A well studied system, but still open in many regards, is the Hubbard-Holstein Hamiltonian, where electronic repulsion is in…
We calculate the spin relaxation rates in a parabolic InSb quantum dots due to the spin interaction with acoustical phonons. We considered the deformation potential mechanism as the dominant electron-phonon coupling in the Pavlov-Firsov…
We show that coherent optical manipulation of a single confined spin is possible even in the absence of spin-orbit coupling. To this end, we consider the non-Markovian dynamics of a single valence orbital hole spin that has optically…
The stripe phase, an intertwined order observed in high-temperature superconductors, is regarded as playing a key role in elucidating the underlying mechanism of superconductivity, especially in cuprates. Following Jan Zaanen's early…
Ultracold fermions in a one-dimensional, spin-dependent, optical lattice are described by a non-standard Hubbard model with next-nearest-neighbour correlated hopping. Periodic driving of the lattice allows wide tuning of the system…
We study the one-dimensional t-J-J'-model in the limit of small hole doping $x$ and small $J/t$, $J'/t$. Special emphasis is put on the regime $J'/J \approx .5$ where a spin gap is present at small doping and the undoped spin chain is…
The present {\em ab initio} study shows that in BaBiO$_3$, Bi$^{3+}$ sites can trap two holes from the valence band to form Bi$^{5+}$ cations. The trapping is accompanied by large local lattice distortions, therefore the composite particle…
The interplay between spin and orbital degrees of freedom in the Mott-Hubbard insulator is studied by considering an orbitally degenerate superexchange model. We argue that orbital order and the orbital excitation gap in this model are…

The electronic properties of excitonic insulators have been examined precisely in recent years. Pictures of exciton condensation may be applied to the spin-state transition observed in perovskite cobalt oxides. We examine the crystal-field…
Understanding the interplay between charge and spin and its effects on transport is a ubiquitous challenge in quantum many-body systems. In the Fermi-Hubbard model, this interplay is thought to give rise to magnetic polarons, whose dynamics…
Chiral phonons offer a route to transfer angular momentum without relying on magnetic order, but their electronic response in metals remains poorly understood from perspectives beyond spin-based scenarios. Using first-principles…
