Manipulating nonlinear excitations, including solitons and vortices, is an essential topic in quantum many-body physics. A recent progress in this direction is a new protocol proposed in [Phys. Rev. Res. 2, 043256 (2020)] to produce dark…
A ring dark soliton is a dark soltion occurring in higher dimensions. It is still unknown in microcavity-polariton condensates due to its instability. We find that a stable RDS cannot exist in a MPC without a defect. We then propose a way…
Formation and evolution of topological defects in course of non-equilibrium symmetry breaking phase transitions is of wide interest in many areas of physics, from cosmology through condensed matter to low temperature physics. Its study in…

It was recently found that the Lee-Huang-Yang (LHY) correction to the mean-field Hamiltonian suppresses the collapse and creates stable localized modes (two-component "quantum droplets", QDs) in two and three dimensions. We construct…
