The presence of algebraically decaying long-range interactions may alter the critical as well as topological behaviour of a quantum many-body systems. However, when the interaction decays at a faster rate, the short-range behaviour is…

It is shown that the density of two {\it initially independent} condensates which are allowed to expand and overlap can show interferences as a function of time due to interparticle interaction. Using many-body theory, explicit expressions…

The apparent randomness of chaotic eigenstates in interacting quantum systems hides subtle correlations dynamically imposed by their finite energy per particle. These correlations are revealed when Berrys approach for chaotic eigenfunctions…

Macroscopic systems are described most completely by local densities (particle number, momentum and energy) yet the superposition states of such physical variables, indicated by the Everett interpretation, are not observed. In order to…

In this letter we propose a protocol to reverse a quantum many-body dynamical process. We name it "many-body echo" because the underlying physics is closely related to the spin echo effect in nuclear magnetic resonance systems. We consider…

We use numerical simulations to study the dynamics of dense assemblies of self-propelled particles in the limit of extremely large, but finite, persistence times. In this limit, the system evolves intermittently between mechanical…

We study the collision dynamics of two Bose-Einstein condensates with their dynamical wave functions modeled by a set of coupled, time-dependent Gross-Pitaevskii equations. Beginning with an effective one-dimensional system, we identify…

Entanglement and interference are both hallmark effects of quantum physics. Particularly rich dynamics arise when multiple (at least partially) indistinguishable particles are subjected to either of these phenomena. By combining both…

We introduce time-ordered multibody interactions to describe complex systems manifesting temporal as well as multibody dependencies. First, we show how the dynamics of multivariate Markov chains can be decomposed in ensembles of…

We provide a statistical and correlational analysis of the spatial and energetic properties of equilibrium configurations of a few-body system of two to eight equally charged classical particles that are confined on a one-dimensional…

One way to look for complex behaviours in many-body quantum systems is to let the number $N$ of degrees of freedom become large and focus upon collective observables. Mean-field quantities scaling as $1/N$ tend to commute, whence complexity…

Geometrical frustration and long-range couplings are key contributors to create quantum phases with different properties throughout physics. We propose a scheme where both ingredients naturally emerge in a Raman induced subwavelength…

We study multi-photon resonances in a strongly-driven three-level quantum system, where one level is periodically swept through a pair of levels with constant energy separation $E$. Near the multi-photon resonance condition $n\hbar\omega =…
