We study induced pairing between two identical fermions mediated by an attractively interacting quantum impurity in two-dimensional systems. Based on a Stochastic Variational Method (SVM), we investigate the influence of confinement and…
Asymmetric resonances in elastic n+$^{19}$C scattering are attributed to Efimov states of such neutron-rich nuclei, that is, three-body bound states of the n+n+$^{18}$C system when none of the pairs is bound or some of them only weakly…
A distinguishing feature of ultracold collisions of bosonic lithium atoms is the presence of two near-degenerate two-body continua. The influence of such a near-degeneracy on the few-body physics in the vicinity of a narrow Feshbach…
An Efimov trimer near the atom-dimer threshold can increase the atom loss rate in ultracold trapped atoms through the {\it avalanche mechanism} proposed by Zaccanti et al. A 3-body recombination event creates an energetic atom and dimer,…

We have measured the interaction energy and three-body recombination rate for a two-component Fermi gas near a narrow Feshbach resonance and found both to be strongly energy dependent. Even for deBroglie wavelengths greatly exceeding the…
The system of four identical bosons with large two-boson scattering length is described using momentum-space integral equations for the four-particle transition operators. The creation of Efimov trimers via ultracold four-boson…

Near Feshbach resonances, $n|a|^3\gg 1$, systems of Bose and Fermi particles become strongly interacting/dense. In this unitary limit both bosons and fermions have very different properties than in a dilute gas, e.g., the energy per…
We determine analytically how Efimov trimer states are modified by three-body losses within the model of Braaten and Hammer. We find a regime where the energies approach the positive real axis and the decay rates vanish.
We start with a variational approach and derive a set of coupled integral equations for the bound states of $N$ identical spin-$\uparrow$ fermions and a single spin-$\downarrow$ fermion in a generic multiband Hubbard Hamiltonian with an…
A few-body properties of spinless Bose particles interacting via the contact three-body potential in geometries with fractional dimensions $1<d<2$ are considered. In the four-body sector at three-body resonance we predict the existence of…
We consider a quantum system in dimension three composed by a group of $N$ identical fermions, with mass 1/2, interacting via zero-range interaction with a group of $M$ identical fermions of a different type, with mass $m/2$. Exploiting a…
Efimov physics at $p$-wave unitarity for three equal mass fermions in multiple symmetries interacting via Lennard-Jones potentials is predicted to modify the long range interaction potential energy, but without producing a true Efimov…
We treat small trapped unequal-mass two-component Fermi gases at unitarity within a non-perturbative microscopic framework and investigate the system properties as functions of the mass ratio $\kappa$, and the numbers $N_{1}$ and $N_2$ of…
Universality -- an essential concept in physics -- implies that different systems show the same phenomenon and can be described by a unified theory. A prime example of the universal quantum phenomena is the Efimov effect, which is the…
We analyze many-body entanglement in interacting fermionic systems by using the $M$-body reduced density matrix. We demonstrate that if a particle number conserving fermionic Hamiltonian contains only up to $M$-body interaction terms, then…
The Efimov effect can be induced by means of an external deformed one-body field that effectively reduces the allowed spatial dimensions to less than three. To understand this new mechanism, conceptually and practically, we employ a…
The mass-imbalanced three-body recombination process that forms a shallow dimer is shown to possess a rich Efimov-St\"uckelberg landscape, with corresponding spectra that differ fundamentally from the homonuclear case. A semi-analytical…
The Efimov effect was first predicted for three particles interacting at an $s$-wave resonance in three dimensions. Subsequent study showed that the same effect can be realized by considering two-body and three-body interactions in mixed…
