We construct a model of non-uniform condensate having a spatially modulated complex order parameter that makes it kinematically an x-ray solid, i.e., a real mass density wave, but one admitting an associated superfluid flow. Intrinsic to…
It is established theoretically that an ordered state with continuous symmetry is inherently unstable to arbitrarily small amounts of disorder [1, 2]. This principle is of central importance in a wide variety of condensed systems including…

Electron hydrodynamics gives rise to surprising correlated behaviors in which electrons "cooperate" to quench dissipation and reduce the electric fields needed to sustain the flow. Such collective "free" flows are usually expected at the…
Vortices are topological defects associated with superfluids and superconductors, which, when mobile, dissipate energy destroying the dissipation-less nature of the superfluid. The nature of this "quantum dissipation" is rooted in the…

Non-zero curvature in a waveguide leads to the appearance of an attractive quantum potential which crucially affects the dynamics in matter-wave circuits. Using methods of supersymmetric quantum mechanics, pairs of bent waveguides are found…
Appearance of quantized vortices in a superfluid and a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) stems from their nontrivial response to broken time-reversal symmetry (TRS). Here we show that breaking of the TRS by, for example, rotation or an…
