Attraction of the quantum particle to the center in the 3D space with potential V/r^2 gives rise to the quantum collapse, i.e., nonexistence of the ground state (GS) when the attraction strength exceeds a critical value (V = 1/8, in the…
It is well known that attractive potential which is inversely proportional to the squared distance from the origin gives rise to the critical quantum collapse in the framework of the three-dimensional (3D) linear Schroedinger equation. This…
Quantum collapse in three and two dimensions (3D and 2D) is induced by attractive potential ~ -1/r^2. It was demonstrated that the mean-field (MF) cubic self-repulsion in the 3D bosonic gas suppresses the collapse and creates the missing…
The macroscopic effects of the quantum conformal anomaly are evaluated in a simplified two-dimensional model of gravitational collapse. The effective action and stress tensor of the anomaly can be expressed in a local quadratic form by the…
The recent analysis, based on the mean-field approximation (MFA), has predicted that the critical quantum collapse of the bosonic wave function, pulled to the center by the inverse-square potential in the three-dimensional space, is…
Quantum anomalies arise when symmetries of a classical theory cannot be preserved upon quantization, leading to unconventional topological responses. A prominent example is the parity anomaly of a single two-dimensional Dirac fermion, which…
Critical gravitational collapse offers a unique window into regimes of arbitrarily high curvature, culminating in a naked singularity arising from smooth initial data -- thus providing a dynamical counterexample to weak cosmic censorship.…
Anomalies are renormalization group invariants that constrain the dynamics of quantum field theories. We show that certain anomalies for discrete global symmetries imply that the underlying theory either spontaneously breaks its generalized…
We discuss a model where a spontaneous quantum collapse is induced by the gravitational interaction, treated classically. Its dynamics couples the standard wave function of a system with the Bohmian positions of its particles, which are…
The realization of robust quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) phases at elevated temperatures remains a central challenge in condensed matter physics. While quadratic band crossing points (QBCP) provide a promising route towards QAH states,…
A phenomenological framework is presented for incorporating quantum gravity motivated corrections into the dynamics of spherically symmetric collapse. The effective equations are derived from a variational principle that guarantees energy…
According to the mean-field theory a condensed Bose-Bose mixture collapses when the interspecies attraction becomes stronger than the geometrical average of the intraspecies repulsions, $g_{12}^2>g_{11} g_{22}$. We show that instead of…
We propose a modified dynamics of quantum mechanics, in which classical mechanics of a point mass derives intrinsically in a massive limit of a single-particle model. On the premise that a position basis plays a special role in wavefunction…
We investigate beyond-mean-field corrections to the energy of an elongated homogeneous Bose gas strongly confined in two directions, with dipoles aligned along the long axis of the system. When the dipolar interaction reaches its critical…
Quantum mechanics is an extremely successful theory that agrees with every experiment. However, the principle of linear superposition, a central tenet of the theory, apparently contradicts a commonplace observation: macroscopic objects are…
We consider the dynamical model of a binary bosonic gas trapped in a symmetric dual-core cigar-shaped potential. The setting is modeled by a system of linearly-coupled one-dimensional Gross-Pitaevskii equations with the cubic self-repulsive…
We report on the experimental observation of the dipolar collapse of a quantum gas which sets in when we reduce the contact interaction below some critical value using a Feshbach resonance. Due to the anisotropy of the dipole-dipole…
We investigate the gravitational collapse of a non-rotating $n$-dimensional BTZ black hole in AdS space in the context of both classical and quantum mechanics. This is done by first deriving the conserved mass of a "spherically" symmetric…
Quasiparticle collapsing is a central issue in the study of strongly correlated electron systems. In the one-dimensional case, the quasiparticle collapsing in a form of spin-charge separation has been well established, but the problem…
