We study the onset of collective spin-self-organization in a thermal ensemble of driven two-level atoms confined in an optical cavity. The atoms spontaneously form a spin-pattern above a critical driving strength that sets a threshold and…

Spiral spin liquids possess a subextensively degenerate ground-state manifold, represented by a continuum of energy minima in reciprocal space. Since a small change of the spiral state wavevector requires a global change of the spin…

Z2 spin liquids have topological order. One manifestation of this is that a Z2 spin liquid on a torus exhibits a four-fold degeneracy. Recent numerical evidence has argued for the existence of a spin liquid ground state in the Hubbard model…
