Within the framework of the universal algebra of the electromagnetic field, the impact of globally neutral configurations of external charges on the field is analyzed. External charges are not affected by the field, but they induce…
Artificial molecular states of double quantum dots defined in bilayer graphene are studied with the atomistic tight-binding and its low-energy continuum approximation. We indicate that the extended electron wave functions have opposite…
We report on a remarkable spectral phenomenon in a generic type of quantum lattice gas model. As the interaction strength increases, eigenstates spontaneously reorganize and lead to plateaus of the interaction energy, with gaps opening akin…
We studied a system of atomic Bose-Einstein condensate coupled to a ring cavity within the mean-field theory. Due to the interaction between atoms and light field, the atoms can be self-trapped. This is verified with both variational and…
As shown in recent experiments [V. Lienhard et al., Phys. Rev. X 10, 021031 (2020)], spin-orbit coupling in systems of Rydberg atoms can give rise to density-dependent Peierls Phases in second-order hoppings of Rydberg spin excitations and…
In the tensor network representation, a deformed $Z_{2}$ topological ground state wave function is proposed and its norm can be exactly mapped to the two-dimensional solvable Ashkin-Teller (AT) model. Then the topological (toric code) phase…
After summarizing the phenomenology of pressure amorphization (PA), we present a theory of PA based on the notion that one or more branches of the phonon spectrum soften and flatten with increasing pressure. The theory expresses the…

We investigate the possibility that idealized quantum state-reduction processes may produce a local violation of charge conservation. If this occurs, the corresponding electromagnetic fields cannot be consistently described within Maxwell…
We investigate the nature of quantum jumps occurring between macroscopic metastable states of light in the open driven Jaynes-Cummings model. We find that, in the limit of zero spontaneous emission considered in [H. J. Carmichael, Phys.…
As the fundamental quantum mechanical theory predicts, it is believed that electronic states can be bound only to potential wells and not to potential barriers in any dimension and their energies should be below the background potential.…
Quantum optics with giant emitters has shown a new route for the observation and manipulation of non-Markovian properties in waveguide-QED. In this paper we extend the theory of giant atoms, hitherto restricted to the perturbative…
Quantum field theory (QFT) describes nature using continuous fields, but physical properties of QFT are usually revealed in terms of measurements of observables at a finite resolution. We describe a multiscale representation of a free…
A first-order, confinement/deconfinement phase transition appears in the finite temperature behavior of many non-Abelian gauge theories. These theories play an important role in proposals for completion of the Standard Model of particle…
Cold atomic gases are perfect laboratories for realization of quantum simulators. In order to simulate solid state systems in the presence of magnetic fields special effort has to be made because atoms are charge neutral. There are…
One of the core questions of quantum physics is how to reconcile the unitary evolution of quantum states, which is information-preserving and time-reversible, with evolution following the second law of thermodynamics, which, in general, is…
In a k-dimensional system of weakly interacting Bose atoms trapped by a spherically symmetric and harmonic external potential, an exact expression is obtained for the rotating ground states at a fixed angular momentum. The result is valid…
We generalize Bohr's complementarity principle for wave and particle properties to arbitrary quantum systems. We begin by noting that a particle-like state is represented by a spatially-localized wave function and its narrow probability…
