A decade ago Rhie \et (Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 90}, 247201 (2003)) reported that when ferromagnetic nickel is subject to an intense ultrashort laser pulse, its exchange splitting is reduced quickly. But to simulate such reduction remains a…

We use time-domain numerical simulations of a two-dimensional (2D) scattering system to study the interaction of a collection of emitters resonantly coupled to an Anderson-localized mode. For a small electric field intensity, we observe the…

We resolve a fundamental issue associated with the conventional Kohn-Sham formulation of real-time time-dependent density functional theory. We show that unphysical multielectron excitations, generated during time propagation of the…

The accurate description of the non-linear response of many-electron systems to strong-laser fields remains a major challenge. Methods that bypass the unfavorable exponential scaling with particle number are required to address larger…

We present a first-principles approach to electronic many-body systems strongly coupled to cavity modes in terms of matter-photon one-body reduced density matrices. The theory is fundamentally non-perturbative and thus captures not only the…

The interplay of nuclear and electronic dynamics characterizes the multi-dimensional electronic spectra of various molecular and solid-state systems. Theoretically, the observable effect of such interplay can be accounted for by response…
