By revisiting the path-integral formulation of the Hubbard model, we propose a theoretical approach based on a semiclassical approximation employing an unconventional coherent-state representation. Within this framework, a subset of the…
Recent experiments on CeCoIn5 -- a prototypical d-wave superconductor -- indicate that its normal state lies near an unconventional quantum critical point (QCP). One intriguing hypothesis is that quantum-critical fluctuations promote…
Understanding charge transport in strongly correlated systems remains a central challenge in condensed matter physics, particularly in light of the ubiquitous linear-in-$T$ resistivity observed in strange metals across many platforms from…
Some notable systems, such as room-temperature superconductors and materials for controlled nuclear fusion, require an accurate description of finite-temperature quantum matter. Stochastic path integral methods are finite-temperature and…
The mobility edges (MEs) that separate localized, multifractal and ergodic states in energy are a central concept in understanding Anderson localization. In this work we study the effect of several mutually commensurate quasiperiodic…
The heavy-fermion superconductor CeRh2As2 exhibits a non-superconducting phase transition that precedes the emergence of superconductivity. The nature of the corresponding order parameter remains under debate, with competing proposals…
Doping carriers into a correlated quantum ground state offers a promising route to generate new quantum states. The recent advent of moir\'{e} superlattices provided a versatile platform with great tunability to explore doping physics in…
Symmetry and entanglement are two fundamental concepts in quantum many-body physics. Their interplay is captured by symmetry-resolved entanglement, which decomposes the total entanglement into contributions from different symmetry sectors.…
We have studied the antiferromagnetic Ising model on the icosahedral bcc lattice, as a model system of 1/1 approximant Tsai-type quasicrystals. We addressed thermal equilibrium properties of this system with Markov-chain Monte Carlo…
The entangled charge and spin dynamics in strongly electron correlated system has been a fruitful playground for exploring new physical phenomena. Here with resonant inelastic X-ray scattering we studied the spin dynamics of SrIrO$_3$, a…
The tunability and twist engineering of van der Waals materials enable the emergence of electronic states not present in individual monolayers. Among them, monolayer 1T-TaS$_2$ is a well-known Mott insulating system, whose star-of-David…
Using {\it ab initio} calculations, we investigate the magnetic ground states of quasi-one-dimensional insulating CrSb$X_3$ ($X$ = S, Se) with infinite double-rutile chains. Within conventional band theory, without explicit Coulomb…
We construct an effective single-particle Hamiltonian $K_{\mathrm{eff}}$ from Monte Carlo--averaged matrix logarithms of the imaginary-time propagator in determinant quantum Monte Carlo (DQMC). The logarithm maps the multiplicative sign…
Geometric frustration gives rise to vast manifolds of degenerate ground states and competing orders in spin and charge systems. Typically, classical ground states are governed by a local ``zero-sum constraint" that relieves frustrated…
The chiral vortical effect (CVE) -- an axial current driven by rotation in chiral matter -- appears in systems ranging from relativistic fluids to Weyl semimetals, yet its quantum origin remains unclear because existing derivations are…
The classification of phases using categorical symmetries has greatly expanded the landscape of gapped and gapless phases. So far, however, these developments have largely been restricted to phases with unitary (higher-)categorical…
Dynamical and variational frameworks have long been viewed as distinct paradigms. In particular, in quantum embedding (QE) frameworks, dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) captures nonperturbative dynamical correlations through a…
Frustrated interactions in the Cu-based mineral rouaite with alternating antiferromagnetic and ferromagnetic spin chains, Cu$_2$(OH)$_3$NO$_3$, introduce non-trivial magnetic ground states and exotic excitations arising from them. We…
We develop a novel framework to build quantum many-body scar states in bipartite systems characterized by perfect correlation between the Hamiltonians governing the two sides. By means of a Krylov construction, we build an interaction term…
The kagome lattice, with its inherent frustration, hosts a plethora of exotic phenomena, including the emergence of $3\mathbf{q}$ charge density wave order. The high rotational symmetry, required to realize such an unconventional charge…
