The spin-orbital model for triply degenerate t_2g electrons on a triangular lattice has been shown to be dominated by dimers: the phase diagram contains both strongly resonating, compound spin-orbital dimer states and quasi-static,…
Ideas about resonant valence bond liquids and spin-charge separation have led to key concepts in physics such as quantum spin liquids, emergent gauge symmetries, topological order, and fractionalisation. Despite extensive efforts to…

To explain the high-temperature superconductivity of hole-doped copper-oxide high-temperature superconductors (HDCO-HTSCs), Anderson proposed a theory: (A) the pseudogap state is a resonating valence-bond (RVB) state below T* and (B) the…
Quantum spin-lattice systems in low dimensions exhibit a variety of interesting zero-temperature phases, some of which show non-classical (i.e., non-magnetic) long-range orders, such as dimer or trimer valence-bond order. These…
We present a strong-coupling approach to the theory of high-temperature superconductivity based on the observation of a quantum critical point in the plaquette within the t,t' Hubbard model. The crossing of ground state energies in the…
Using the Density Matrix Renormalization Group and two-leg ladders, we investigate an electronic two-orbital Hubbard model including plaquette diagonal hopping amplitudes. Our goal is to search for regimes where charges added to the undoped…
Dicke's original thought experiment with two spins coupled to a photon mode has recently been experimentally realized. We propose extending this experiment to N spins and show that it naturally gives rise to highly entangled states. In…
A theoretical model is presented to explain the spin gap observed for CaV$_4$O$_9$. The underlying lattice of the 1/5-depleted square lattice favors a formation of plaquette resonating valence bond state. Inclusion of the frustrating second…
We propose that a valence-bond-solid (VBS) order can be stabilized in certain two-dimensional antiferromagnets due to spin-lattice coupling. In contrast to the VBS state of the Affleck-Kennedy-Lieb-Tesaki (AKLT) type in which the spin $2S$…
A resonating valence bond (RVB) state of a lattice of quantum systems is a potential resource for quantum computing and communicating devices. It is a superposition of singlet, i.e., dimer, coverings - often restricted to nearest-neighbour…
