We propose a novel method for generating Schr\"odinger-cat states -- defined as equal superpositions of arbitrary coherent states -- using a concise sequence of rapid twist-and-turn pulses. We demonstrate that the required shearing strength…

The half-infinite XXZ open spin chain with general integrable boundary conditions is considered within the recently developed `Onsager's approach'. Inspired by the finite size case, for any type of integrable boundary conditions it is shown…

We investigate (3+1)d topological orders in fermionic systems with an anomalous $\mathbb{Z}_{2N}^{\mathrm{F}}$ symmetry, where its $\mathbb{Z}_2^{\mathrm{F}}$ subgroup is the fermion parity. Such an anomalous symmetry arises as the discrete…
