We consider a model for the motion of an impurity interacting with two parallel, one-dimensional (bosonized) fermionic baths. The impurity is able to move along any of the baths, and to jump from one to the other. We provide a perturbative…

For a hard-core Bose gas on a one-dimensional lattice we find characteristic oscillations in the density-density correlation function. Their wavelength diverges as the system undergoes a continuous transition from an incommensurate to a…

Objects subjected to a constant force generally increase their velocity over time. This expectation fails whenever their energy is a smooth and periodic function of momentum, resulting in periodic Bloch oscillations instead. Periodic…

Bloch oscillations, the oscillatory motion of a quantum particle in a periodic potential, are one of the most fascinating effects of coherent quantum transport. Originally studied in the context of electrons in crystals, Bloch oscillations…

We investigate how the coherence and spatial dressing of a single impurity evolve in the two-dimensional Bose-Hubbard model when the impurity couples attractively to the bath. Using large-scale, sign-problem-free worm-algorithm quantum…
