We consider the grand canonical thermodynamics of a noninteracting scalar field in a static spacetime. We take the nonrelativistic limit of thermodynamic quantities in a way that leaves the curved structure of the background geometry…
We experimentally demonstrate how thermal properties in an non-equilibrium quantum many- body system emerge locally, spread in space and time, and finally lead to the globally relaxed state. In our experiment, we quench a one-dimensional…

Many-body localization for a system of bosons trapped in a one dimensional lattice is discussed. Two models that may be realized for cold atoms in optical lattices are considered. The model with a random on-site potential is compared with…

The emergence of macroscopic coherence in a many-body quantum system is a ubiquitous phenomenon across different physical systems and scales. This Chapter reviews key concepts characterizing such systems (correlation functions,…
We study two-body correlations in a many-boson system with a hyperspherical approach, where we can use arbitrary scattering length and include two-body bound states. As a special application we look on Bose-Einstein condensation and…
We derive a general effective many-body theory for bosonic polar molecules in strong interaction regime, which cannot be correctly described by previous theories within the first Born approximation. The effective Hamiltonian has additional…
We investigate an atomic ensemble of interacting bosons trapped in a symmetric double well potential in contact with a single tightly trapped ion which has been recently proposed [R. Gerritsma et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 109, 080402 (2012)] as…
In the study of the thermalization of closed quantum systems, the role of kinetic constraints on the temporal dynamics and the eventual thermalization is attracting significant interest. Kinetic constraints typically lead to long-lived…

Recent developments of experimental techniques in the field of ultra-cold gases open a path to study the crossover from 'few' to 'many' on the quantum level. In this case, accurate description of inter-particle correlations is very…
We consider a many-body system of pseudo-spin-1/2 bosons with spin-orbit interactions, which couple the momentum and the internal pseudo-spin degree of freedom created by spatially varying laser fields. The corresponding single- particle…
