We study the nonequilibrium driven dynamics at topologically nontrivial quantum critical points (QCPs), and find that topological edge modes at criticality give rise to anomalous dynamical scaling behavior. By analyzing the driven dynamics…
In this Letter, we predict a structural phase transition unique to chiral crystals with screw symmetry. In chiral crystals, the phonon frequency renormalized by the electron-phonon coupling depends on the handedness of circular…
We derive the self-consistent random phase approximations (sc-RPA) from the projective truncation approximation (PTA) for the equation of motion of two-time Green's function. The obtained sc-RPA applies to arbitrary temperature and recovers…
Trions, three-body bound states composed of an exciton and an additional charge, are typically fragile and require external excitation to form. Here, we report the spontaneous emergence of a stable trion gas at the surface of the layered…
The intermediate valence of Ce in CeCo$_5$ challenges standard density functional theory (DFT) and static DFT+$U$ approaches, which fail to capture its magnetic properties. By combining DFT+$U$ with exact diagonalization of the Anderson…
As a powerful theoretical construct, the entanglement Hamiltonian (EH) encapsulates the essential entanglement properties of a quantum many-body system. From the EH, one can extract a variety of entanglement quantities, such as entanglement…
The pairing symmetry of the recently discovered bilayer nickelate superconductor La$_3$Ni$_2$O$_7$ is a subject of intense debate in condensed matter physics, with the two leading theoretical candidates being a sign-reversing $s_{\pm}$-wave…
We demonstrate the realization of a Discrete Time-Crystal (DTC) phase in a family of periodically driven, one-dimensional quadratic lattice Hamiltonians that can be obtained using spin chains. These interactions preserve integrability while…
A magnet is a collection of magnetic moments. How those interact is determined by what lies in between. In transition-metal and rare-earth magnetic compounds, the configuration of the ligands around each magnetic center and the connectivity…
Gauging and duality transformations, two of the most useful tools in many-body physics, are shown to be equivalent up to constant depth quantum circuits in the case of one-dimensional quantum lattice models. This is demonstrated by making…
Understanding the interplay between electronic correlations and band topology remains a central challenge in condensed matter physics, primarily hindered by a language mismatch problem. While band topology is naturally formulated within a…
Chains of Rydberg atoms have emerged as a powerful platform for exploring low-dimensional quantum physics. This success originates from the precise control of lattice geometries provided by optical tweezers, which allows access to a wide…
The entanglement spectrum (ES) is a powerful tool for probing topological phases. While its behavior in gapped systems is well understood, its properties in gapless regimes remain unclear. In this work, we employ a quantum Monte Carlo…
The recent discovery of superconductivity under pressure in Ruddlesden-Popper (RP) nickelates has attracted a great deal of attention. Here, using charge-self consistent density-functional theory plus dynamical mean-field theory, we study…
Femtosecond optical pulses have opened a new frontier in ultrafast dynamics, enabling direct access to fundamental interactions in quantum materials. In antiferromagnets (AFMs), where the fundamental quantum mechanical exchange interaction…
Motivated by intense research on two-dimensional spin-1/2 Kitaev materials, Kitaev spin chains and ladders, though geometrically limited, have been studied for their numerical simplicity and insights into extended Kitaev models. The phase…
The triangular lattice Hubbard model at strong coupling, whose effective spin model contains both Heisenberg and ring exchange interactions, exhibits a rich phase diagram as the ratio of the hopping $t$ to onsite Coulomb repulsion $U$ is…
The Hubbard model and its extensions are canonical theoretical frameworks for understanding correlated electronic states, including those in high-$T_c$ cuprates. Here, we use state-of-the-art thermal tensor network method to map out the…
We extend the Kajueter-Kotliar [Phys. Rev. Lett. 77, 131 (1996)] iterated perturbation theory (KK-IPT) away from half filling to nonequilibrium steady states. We benchmark the resulting nonequilibrium KK-IPT approach against the auxiliary…
Kagome metals are prone to charge-density wave (CDW), magnetic, and superconducting phases, with their flat electronic band conducive for correlated physics. In contrast to the weakly correlated $A$V$_3$Sb$_5$ ($A$ = K, Rb, Cs) kagome…
