Recent work has shown that the entanglement of finite-temperature eigenstates in chaotic quantum many-body local Hamiltonians can be accurately described by an ensemble of random states with an internal $U(1)$ symmetry. We build upon this…

We show that a many-body Hamiltonian that corresponds to a system of fermions interacting through a pairing force is an integrable problem, i.e. it has as many constants of the motion as degrees of freedom. At the classical level this…

Integrability conditions for systems of bosons or fermions with seniority conserving hamiltonians are derived. The conditions are shown to be invariant under a large class of transformations of the interaction matrix elements. Previously…

A state of matter is characterized by its symmetry breaking and elementary excitations. A supersolid is a state which breaks both translational symmetry and internal $ U(1) $ symmetry. Here, we review some past and recent works in…

Topological objects resulting from symmetry breakdown may be either stable or metastable depending on the pattern of symmetry breaking. However, if they acquire zero-energy modes of fermions, and in the process acquire non-integer fermionic…

I present the exact energy eigenstates and eigenvalues of a quantum many-body system of bosons on non-commutative space and in a harmonic oszillator confining potential at the selfdual point. I also argue that this exactly solvable system…

Spin-boson models are the canonical benchmark for quantum dissipation. We show the symmetry structure of general spin-boson Hamiltonians and obtain their spectra explicitly by exploiting the symmetry. As an illustration of the general case,…

Exactly solvable models have played an important role in establishing the sophisticated modern understanding of equilibrium many-body physics. And conversely, the relative scarcity of solutions for non-equilibrium models greatly limits our…

We present for the first time to the nuclear physics community the Hamiltonian Mean Field (HMF) model. The model can be solved analytically in the canonical ensemble and shows a second-order phase transition in the thermodynamic limit.…

We present a `supersymmetric' modification of the $d$-dimensional quantum rotor model whose ground state is exactly soluble. The model undergoes a vortex-binding transition from insulator to metal as the rotor coupling is varied. The…
