We identify several phases of thermalization that describe regimes of behavior in isolated, periodically driven (Floquet), mesoscopic quantum chaotic systems. We also identify a new Floquet thermal ensemble -- the ladder ensemble -- that is…
We consider a 3D homogeneous superfluid at low temperature $T$ with 2 types of excitations, gapless phonons with a linear dispersion relation at low wavenumber, and gapped quasiparticles with a quadratic dispersion relation around extrema.…

We consider a specific instance of a superconducting circuit, the so-called charge-qubit, consisting of a capacitor and a Josephson junction. Starting from the microscopic description of the latter in terms of two tunneling BCS models in…
We investigate the out-of-equilibrium properties of a system of interacting bosons in a ring lattice. We present a Floquet driving that induces clockwise (counterclockwise) circulation of the particles among the odd (even) sites of the ring…
We describe and implement a technique for extracting forces from the relaxation of an overdamped thermal system with normal modes. At sufficiently short time intervals, the evolution of a normal mode is well described by a one-dimensional…
We investigate the dynamics of quasiparticle agglomerates in edge states of the Jain sequence for \nu=2/5. Comparison of the Fradkin-Lopez model with the Wen one is presented within a field theoretical construction, focusing on similarities…
Ultra-small Josephson junctions are strongly influenced by noise and damping due to energy dissipation into the environment, which are expected to suppress phase coherence. Here, we investigate the coherence properties of atomic-scale…
The concept of quasi-particles forms the theoretical basis of our microscopic understanding of emergent phenomena associated with quantum mechanical many-body interactions. However, quasi-particle theory in disordered materials has proven…
We demonstrate that a periodically driven quantum system can adopt a quasistationary state which is effectively much colder than a thermal reservoir it is coupled to, in the sense that certain Floquet states of the driven-dissipative system…
Driven-dissipative dynamics underlie a wide range of nonequilibrium phenomena in quantum materials, yet reduced descriptions beyond the quasi-equilibrium picture remain difficult to establish. Here, we experimentally demonstrate that a…
Time-periodic (Floquet) drive is a powerful method to engineer quantum phases of matter, including fundamentally non-equilibrium states that are impossible in static Hamiltonian systems. One characteristic example is the anomalous Floquet…
Periodically-driven systems engender a rich competition between the time scales of the drives and those of the system, leading to a limited ability to describe the system in full. We present a framework for the description of interacting…
Spatial Fourier transforms of quasipatterns observed in Faraday wave experiments suggest that the patterns are well represented by the sum of 8, 10 or 12 Fourier modes with wavevectors equally spaced around a circle. This representation has…
We study nanowire-based Josephson junctions shunted by a capacitor and take into account the presence of low-energy quasiparticle excitations. These are treated by extending conventional models used to describe superconducting qubits to…
Within a scaling ansatz formalism plus Thomas-Fermi approximation, we investigate the collective excitations of a harmonically trapped boson-fermion mixture in the collisionless and hydrodynamic limit at low temperature. Both the monopole…
The concept of quasiparticles in solid-state physics is an extremely powerful way to describe complex many-body phenomena in terms of single particle excitations. Introducing a simple particle such as electron, e, hole, h, or a phonon, p,…

We investigate the superfluid dynamics of a Josephson junction beyond the mean-field description, incorporating the role of thermal fluctuations as well as quantum fluctuations. Using a formalism that accounts for the fluctuations in a…
The magnetic energy of nonlinear Alfven waves in compressible plasmas may be ponderomotively coupled only to ion-acoustic quasi-modes which modulate the wave phase velocity and cause wave-front steepening. In the collisionless plasma with…
