The postulates of the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis (ETH) express that thermalization occurs due to the individual eigenstate of the system's Hamiltonian. But the ETH put no light on the dynamics that lead toward thermalization. In…
A contact potential describing an effective interaction between atomic $^4$He reproducing the results obtained with the HFDHE2 potential by Aziz et al. is employed to study the resulting equation of state by means of Quantum Monte Carlo…
We study a Bose-Einstein condensate of ultracold atoms subject to a non-Hermitian spin-orbit coupling, where the system acquires non-Hermitian skin effect under the interplay of spin-orbit coupling and laser-induced atom loss. The presence…
Turbulent fluid dynamics typically involves excitations on many different length scales. Classical incompressible fluids can be cleanly represented in Fourier space enabling spectral analysis of energy cascades and other turbulence…
We discuss pairing of light-matter bosons under effective spin-orbit (SO) coupling in two-dimensional semiconductors. The SO coupling is shown to induce dynamical broadening of a two-body bound state. Application of a transverse magnetic…
A scheme is proposed to dynamically excite distinct eigenstate superpositions in three-body Bose-Fermi mixtures confined in a two-dimensional harmonic trap. The system is initialized in a non-interacting state with a variable spatial…
We consider the effect of inter-atom interactions on the condensation temperature $T_c$ of an atomic Bose-Einstein condensate. We find an analytic expression of the shift in $T_c$ induced by interactions with respect the ideal…
The anomalous Hall effect has had a profound influence on the understanding of many electronic topological materials but is much less studied in their bosonic counterparts. We predict that an intrinsic anomalous Hall effect exists in a…
In these lecture notes, we discuss the physics of a two-dimensional binary mixture of Bose gases at zero temperature, close to the point where the two fluids tend to demix. We are interested in the case where one of the two fluids (the…
We apply the Halperin-Mazenco formalism within the Gross-Pitaevskii theory to characterise the kinematics and nucleation of quantum vortices in a two-dimensional stirred Bose Einstein condensate. We introduce a smooth defect density field…
We investigate an attractive force caused by light induced dipole-dipole interactions in freely expanding ultracold 87Rb atoms. This collective, light-triggered effect results in a self-confining potential with interesting features: it…
A vortex molecule is a topological excitation in two coherently coupled superfluids consisting of a vortex in each superfluid connected by a domain wall of the relative phase, also known as a Josephson vortex. We investigate the dynamics of…
Over the past two decades quantum engineering has made significant advances in our ability to create genuine quantum many-body systems using ultracold atoms. In particular, some prototypical exactly solvable Yang-Baxter systems have been…
We investigate the three-dimensional BCS-BEC crossover in the presence of a Rabi coupling which strongly affects several properties of the system, such as the chemical potential, the pairing gap and the superfluid density. We determine the…
We investigate a systematic statistical bias found in full configuration quantum Monte Carlo (FCIQMC) that originates from controlling a walker population with a fluctuating shift parameter. This bias can become the dominant error when the…
We present a concrete theoretical proposal for detecting topological phase transitions in double kicked atom-optics kicked rotors with internal spin-1/2 degree of freedom. The implementation utilizes a kicked Bose-Einstein condensate…
Particle entanglement provides information on quantum correlations in systems of indistinguishable particles. Here, we study the one particle entanglement entropy for an integrable model of spinless, interacting fermions both at equilibrium…
Ultracold potassium is an interesting candidate for quantum technology applications and fundamental research as it allows controlling intra-atomic interactions via low-field magnetic Feshbach resonances. However, the realization of…
We show how to simulate a model of many molecules with both strong coupling to many vibrational modes and collective coupling to a single photon mode. We do this by combining process tensor matrix product operator methods with a mean-field…
Engineering long-range interacting spin systems with ultra cold atoms offers the possibility to explore exotic magnetically ordered phases in strongly-correlated scenarios. Quantum gases in optical cavities provide a versatile experimental…
