Super- and subradiance are usually described in the framework of Dicke collective states, which is an ``atomic picture'' in which the electromagnetic field only provides an effective interaction between the atoms. Here, we discuss a…
When an ensemble of quantum emitters interacts with a common radiation field, their emission becomes collective, giving rise to superradiant and subradiant states, characterized by broadened and narrowed linewidths. In this work, we propose…
We study Dicke superradiance as collective and coherent absorption and (time-delayed) emission of photons from an ensemble of ultracold atoms in an optical lattice. Since this process depends on the coherence properties of the atoms (e.g.,…
Symmetry-protected subradiance is known to guarantee high qubit storage times in free space. We show that in one-dimensional waveguides, this is also true, but that even longer qubit storage times can be identified by considering the…

A hallmark of symmetry-protected topological phases (SPTs) are topologically protected boundary states, which are immune to perturbations that respect the protecting symmetry. It is commonly believed that any perturbation that destroys an…
