We present here a complete microscopic theory of a family of neutral excitations in the fractional quantum Hall fluids, related to the geometric fluctuations of the quantum Hall ground states. Many of the physical properties of such…
We develop a unified quantum geometric framework to understand reactive quantum dynamics. The critical roles of the quantum geometry of adiabatic electronic states in both adiabatic and non-adiabatic quantum dynamics are unveiled. A…
It is argued that the classical local inertial frame used to define rotational states of quantum systems is only approximate, and that geometry itself must also be rotationally quantized at the Planck scale. A Lorentz invariant statistical…
We consider the geometrization of quantum mechanics. We then focus on the pull-back of the Fubini-Study metric tensor field from the projective Hibert space to the orbits of the local unitary groups. An inner product on these tensor fields…
Continual learning systems operating in fixed-dimensional spaces face a fundamental geometric barrier: the flat manifold problem. When experience is represented as a linear trajectory in Euclidean space, the geodesic distance between…
We establish a rigorous geometric framework for quantum fields on a stochastic gravitational background. Starting from a master partition function that averages over metric fluctuations, we define a matter amplitude $\mathcal{K}$, whose…

Quantum gravity is studied nonperturbatively in the case in which space has a boundary with finite area. A natural set of boundary conditions is studied in the Euclidean signature theory, in which the pullback of the curvature to the…
Using Mott insulators as a prototypical example, we demonstrate a dynamics-based characterization of quantum phases of matter through a general N-body renormalization group framework. The essential "Mott-ness" turns out to be characterized…
The symmetry data of a $d$-dimensional quantum field theory (QFT) can often be captured in terms of a higher-dimensional symmetry topological field theory (SymTFT). In top down (i.e., stringy) realizations of this structure, the QFT in…
The correlation-driven Mott transition is commonly characterized by a drop in resistivity across the insulator-metal phase boundary; yet, the complex permittivity provides a deeper insight into the microscopic nature. We investigate the…
We argue that in strongly correlated electron system collective instanton excitations of the phase field (dual to the charge) arise with a great degree of stability, governed by gauge flux changes by an integer multiple of $2\pi$. By…
The state of a quantum system, adiabatically driven in a cycle, may acquire a measurable phase depending only on the closed trajectory in parameter space. Such geometric phases are ubiquitous, and also underline the physics of robust…
Geometrically frustrated many-particle quantum systems are notoriously hard to study numerically but are of profound interest because of their unusual properties and emergent phenomena. In these systems energetic constraints cannot be…
Quantum groups and non-commutative spaces have been repeatedly utilized in approaches to quantum gravity. They provide a mathematically elegant cut-off, often interpreted as related to the Planck-scale quantum uncertainty in position. We…
Hall coefficient implies the mechanism for reconstruction of a Fermi surface, distinguishing competing scenarios for Mott criticality such as electron fractionalization, dynamical mean-field theory, and metal-insulator transition driven by…
On the basis of quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) simulations we study the formation of Mott domains in the one-dimensional Hubbard model with an additional confining potential. We find evidences of quantum critical behavior at the boundaries of…
The Mott insulator-to-superfluid transition exhibited by the Bose-Hubbard model on a two-dimensional square lattice occurs for any value of the chemical potential, but becomes critical at the tips of the so-called Mott lobes only. Employing…

Fractional quantum Hall (FQH) states are examples of symmetry-enriched topological states (SETs): in addition to the intrinsic topological order, which is robust to symmetry breaking, they possess symmetry-protected topological invariants,…
