We explore the collective response in an excitonic insulator phase in Ta$_2$NiSe$_5$ using a semirealistic model including relevant lattice and electronic instabilities. We calculate order-parameter susceptibility and Raman response within…
Time reversal symmetric topological insulators are generically robust with respect to weak local interaction, unless symmetry breaking transitions take place. Using dynamical mean-field theory we solve an interacting model of quantum spin…
We study the interplay between electron-electron interaction and a Jahn-Teller phonon coupling in a two-orbital Hubbard model. We demonstrate that the e-ph interaction coexists with the Mott localization driven by the Hubbard repulsion U,…
Understanding the behavior of non-Fermi liquids (NFLs) is an important topic in condensed matter physics. Here we introduce an exactly solvable multi-orbital model based on iron oxypnictides and the Hatsugai-Kohmoto model, and provide exact…
Recent neutron scattering and thermodynamic measurements suggest that Weyl electrons in the emergent Weyl semimetal SmAlSi mediate unconventional magnetic interactions and induce spiral magnetic order. In this work, we investigate the…
Topological quantum materials with kagome lattices have attracted intense interest due to their unconventional electronic structures, which exhibit nontrivial topology, anomalous magnetism, and electronic correlations. Among these, Co3Sn2S2…
Gutzwiller projections of non-interacting chiral topological phases are known to give rise to fractional, topologically ordered chiral phases. Here, we carry out a similar construction using two copies of non-interacting Euler insulators to…

Two-dimensional materials with interacting Dirac excitations can host quantum multicritical behavior near the phase boundaries of the semimetallic and two-ordered phases. We study such behavior in Gross--Neveu--Yukawa field theories where…
We develop a four-sublattice spin-wave theory for the $g$-wave altermagnet candidate hematite ($\alpha$-Fe$_2$O$_3$), considering both its easy-axis phase below and its weak ferromagnetic phase above the Morin temperature. A key question is…
The quench dynamics of systems exhibiting cooperative or almost competitive orders in equilibrium are explored using Ginzburg-Landau theory plus fluctuations. We show that when the renormalization of the free energy by fluctuations is taken…
Spangolite (Cu$_6$Al(SO$_4$)(OH)$_{12}$Cl$\cdot$3H$_2$O) is a hydroxy-hydrated copper sulfate mineral with a one-seventh depleted triangular lattice of Cu$^{2+}$ ions in each layer. Experimental measurements revealed a non-magnetic ground…
Projected entangled-pair states (PEPS) constitute a powerful variational ansatz for capturing ground state physics of two-dimensional quantum systems. However, accurately computing and minimizing the energy expectation value remains…
Quantum kernel methods (QKMs) offer an appealing framework for machine learning on near-term quantum computers. However, QKMs generically suffer from exponential concentration, requiring an exponential number of measurements to resolve the…

The intrinsic substitutional and antisite defects cause unintentional doping and shift of the E_F position above the conduction band minimum in the AFM topological insulator (TI) MnBi2Te4. This prevents measurements of the quantum anomalous…
Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) is a powerful local probe of correlated electronic states. Here we present a group theoretical framework for the analysis of STM data, filtering STM images into components which provide a real space…
We construct an interacting Wannier model for both AA-stacked and AB-stacked twisted SnSe2, revealing a rich landscape of correlated quantum phases. For the AA-stacked case, the system is effectively described by a three-orbital triangular…
