We use the Bogoliubov-de Gennes formalism and study the ground-state phases of trapped spin-orbit coupled Fermi gases in two dimensions. Our main finding is that the presence of a symmetric (Rashba type) spin-orbit coupling spontaneously…

Quantum systems whose classical counterparts are chaotic typically have highly correlated eigenvalues and level statistics that coincide with those from ensembles of full random matrices. A dynamical manifestation of these correlations…

Weakly perturbed integrable many-body systems are typically chaotic, and thermal at late times. However, there are distinct relationships between the timescales for thermalization and chaos. The typical relationship is confined chaos: when…
