We show that finite lattices with arbitrary boundaries may support large degenerate subspaces, stemming from the underlying translational symmetry of the lattice. When the lattice is coupled to an environment, a potentially large number of…
One of the key ingredients of many LOCC protocols in quantum information is a multiparticle (locally) maximally entangled quantum state, aka a critical state, that possesses local symmetries. We show how to design critical states with…
A number of recent articles have reported the existence of topologically non-trivial states and associated end states in one-dimensional incommensurate lattice models that would usually only be expected in higher dimensions. Using an…
In this paper, we prove the existence of a bound state in a waveguide that consists of two semi-infinite periodic structures separated by an interface. The two periodic structures are perturbed from the same periodic medium with a Dirac…
We extend a special kind of localized state trapped at the intersection due to the geometric confinement, first proposed in a three-terminal-opening T-shaped structure [Euro. Phys. Lett. {\bf 55}, 539 (2001)], into a ring geometry with a…
We theoretically study two atoms with $p$-wave interaction in a one-dimensional waveguide, and investigate how the transverse anisotropy of the confinement affects the two-body state, especially, the properties of the resonance. For…
We consider a nonrelativistic quantum particle constrained to a curved layer of constant width built over a non-compact surface embedded in $R^3$. We suppose that the latter is endowed with the geodesic polar coordinates and that the layer…
One of the crucial properties of a quantum system is the existence of bound states. While the existence of eigenvalues below zero, i.e., below the essential spectrum, is well understood, the situation of zero energy bound states at the edge…
We study an ultracold atomic gas with attractive interactions in a one-dimensional optical lattice. We find that its excitation spectrum displays a quantum soliton band, corresponding to $N$-particle bound states, and a continuum band of…
We point out that bound states, degenerate in energy but differing in parity, may form in one dimensional quantum systems even if the potential is non-singular in any finite domain. Such potentials are necessarily unbounded from below at…
In a tight binding framework, we analyze the characteristics of electronic states in strongly disordered materials (hopping sites are placed randomly with no local order) with tunneling matrix elements decaying exponentially in the atomic…
We investigate an infinite array of point interactions of the same strength in R^d, d=2,3, situated at vertices of a polygonal curve with a fixed edge length. We demonstrate that if the curve is not a line, but it is asymptotically straight…
We unveil the existence of two-particle bound state in the continuum (BIC) in a one-dimensional interacting nonreciprocal lattice with a generalized boundary condition. By applying the Bethe-ansatz method, we can exactly solve the…
The modeling of finite-extent semiconductor nanostructures that are embedded in a host material requires the numerical treatment of the boundary in a finite simulation domain. For the study of a self-assembled InAs dot embedded in GaAs,…
We theoretically predict the formation of two-photon bound states in a two-dimensional waveguide network hosting a lattice of two-level atoms. The properties of these bound pairs and the exclusive domains of the parameter space where they…

We study bound states of two fermions with opposite spins in an extended Hubbard chain. The particles interact when located both on a site or on adjacent sites. We find three different types of bound states. Type U is predominantly formed…
We consider a particle with a position-dependent mass, moving in a three-dimensional semi-infinite parallelepipedal or cylindrical channel under the influence of some hyperbolic potential. We show that the lack of uniformity in the…

We establish that the ability of a localized trapping potential to bind weakly-interacting bosons is dramatically enhanced in the vicinity of the threshold of formation of the single-particle bound-state of the trap. Specifically, for…
