We propose two distinct crosscap states for the two-dimensional (2D) Ising field theory. These two crosscap states, identifying Ising spins or dual spins (domain walls) at antipodal points, are shown to be related via the Kramers-Wannier…
We investigate magnetic properties of CrTe$_2$ within the density functional theory (DFT) approach in ferromagnetic phase and combination of DFT and dynamical mean field theory (DFT+DMFT) approach in paramagnetic phase. We show that few…
Strontium titanate (STO), apart from being a ubiquitous substrate for complex-oxide heterostructures, possesses a multitude of strongly-coupled electronic and mechanical properties. Surface acoustic wave (SAW) generation and detection…
We explore the effects of non-magnetic impurities (vacancy disorder) on the quantum paramagnetic phases stabilized by SU($N$) designer Hamiltonians on bipartite lattices. Using the results of our quantum Monte Carlo simulations, we…
We propose a general mechanism for the spontaneous emergence of filling-enforced fully compensated ferrimagnetism (fFIM), characterized by zero net magnetization yet ferromagnetic-like spin-split band structures. Using Hartree-Fock…
The emergence of order and geometric limit shapes in a three-dimensional (3D) Coulomb phase subject to domain wall boundary conditions (DWBC) is investigated. While the arctic circle phenomenon -- the spatial segregation of frozen and…
The $p$-wave magnet has emerged as a new type of magnetism exhibiting odd-parity, time-reversal-symmetric spin splitting in momentum space, and has attracted considerable interest as a promising platform for spintronic applications.…
We give a recursion relation for the second-quantized fermionic (bosonic) Halperin state, which avoids exact diagonalization of its two-component first-quantized parent Hamiltonian. We validate this formula by proving that the…
Altermagnets have attracted considerable attention in recent years owing to their potential technological applications in spintronics and magnonics. Recently, a new class of spontaneous altermagnets has been theoretically predicted in a…
We explore nonequilibrium topological responses of symmetry-protected topological (SPT) states in open quantum systems subject to decoherence. For SPT wavefunctions protected by a product symmetry G $\times$ S , where G defects are…
We consider the Fradkin-Shenker ${\mathbb Z}_2$ gauge-Higgs lattice model in 2+1 dimensions, i.e. the toric code deformed by an in-plane magnetic field. Its phase diagram contains a multicritical CFT with gapless, mutually non-local…
The strange metal remains one of the great unsolved problems for 21st century science. Since the early development of the marginal Fermi liquid phenomenology, it has been clear that progress requires detailed knowledge of the momentum- and…
"Addition-by-subtraction" coupled cluster (CC) approaches provide a promising approach to treating the difficult strong correlation problem by simplifying the standard CC equations. In a separate vein, linearized CC methods have drawn…
We observe anomalous charge modulations induced by ionized indium impurities on the surface of the semiconductor black phosphorus by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). When the impurities are switched into a negatively charged state by…
Optical control offers a compelling route for tailoring material properties on an ultrafast time scale. Ordered states such as charge density waves (CDWs) can be transiently melted by an ultrafast light excitation. This is also the case for…
We investigate the periodic Anderson model composed of an itinerant $c$-band and a strongly localized $f$-band, featuring on-site electron-electron interactions in the $f$-orbitals. The two bands interact via a hybridization term with…
Dirac semimetals provide a new platform for the quantum Hall effect at low magnetic fields. In the presence of strong spin-orbit coupling, a spin-split Landau level is expected to enhance the bulk quasiparticle excitation. Here we report…
The search for spin liquids, magnetic phases which lie outside the Landau paradigm, remains one of the central challenges for modern condensed matter physics. For a long time, the prime candidates were thought to be spin-1/2 magnets, but…
We report the emergence of a two-dimensional (2D) polar metal phase in van der Waals compound FePSe$_3$ under moderate pressures. This layered material is a Mott insulator with antiferromagnetic order under ambient conditions. We show that…
In this paper topological $K$-group calculations for fiber bundles with structure group $SO(3)$ over tori are carried out to explain why topological insulators have special conducting points on their surface but are bulk insulators. It is…
