We study the (pseudo-) anyon Hubbard model on a one-dimensional lattice without the presence of a three-body hardcore constraint. In particular, for the pseudo-fermion limit of a large statistical angle $\theta\approx\pi$, we observe a…

We study a two-species bosonic Hubbard model on a two-dimensional square lattice by means of quantum Monte Carlo simulations. In addition to the usual contact repulsive interactions between the particles, the Hamiltonian has an…
Spin-1 bosons on a 1-dimensional chain, at incommensurate filling with anti-ferromagnetic spin interaction between neighboring bosons, may form a spin-1 boson condensed state that contains both gapless charge and spin excitations. We argue…
Motivated by recent observations (P. Soltan-Panahi {\it et al.}, Nature Physics {\bf 8}, 71-75 (2012)), we study the stability of a Bose-Einstein Condensate within a spin-dependent honeycomb lattice towards forming a "Twisted Superfluid"…

We show in a realistic $d_{x^{2}-y^{2}}$ symmetry gap model for a cuprate superconductor that the clean vortex lattice has discontinuous structural transitions (at and near T=0), as a function of the magnetic field $B$ along the c-axis. The…
We introduce a family of many-body systems of distinguishable continuous-variable particles in which interparticle interactions are set by the adjacency matrix of a graph. The ground-state wavefunction of such systems is of a generalized…
We study the superconductivity in small grains in the regime when the quantum level spacing $\delta\varepsilon$ is comparable to the gap $\Delta$. As $\delta\varepsilon$ is increased, the system crosses over from superconducting to normal…

We prove that generic quantum local Hamiltonians are gapless. In fact, we prove that there is a continuous density of states above the ground state. The Hamiltonian can be on a lattice in any spatial dimension or on a graph with a bounded…
