One of the key issues in unraveling the mystery of high Tc superconductivity in the cuprates is to understand the normal state outside the superconducting dome. Here we perform scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy measurements on…
Disorder in quantum systems can lead to the disruption of long-range order in the ground state and to the localization of the elementary excitations - famous examples thereof being the Bose glass of interacting bosons in a disordered or…
In this work, we study unconventional anisotropic topologically ordered phases in $3d$ that manifest type-II fractonic physics along submanifolds. While they behave as usual topological order along a preferred spatial direction, their…
Motivated by recent interest in quasi-one-dimensional compound CaV2O4, we study the ground states of a spin-orbital chain characterized by an Ising-like orbital Hamiltonian and frustrated interactions between S=1 spins. The on-site…
The spectral properties of the spin-1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet on an anisotropic triangular lattice in a magnetic field are investigated using a weak-interchain-coupling approach combined with exact solutions of a chain. Dominant modes…
Motivated by experiment, we review the case for phase inhomogeneity in URu_2Si_2. In this scenario, the paramagnetic hidden order phase coexists with small distinct domains of antiferromagnetism whose volume fraction increases with…
We study the S>1 nearest-neighbor Heisenberg model with a ferromagnetic interaction J and a large non-collinear <111> easy-axis anisotropy D on a pyrochlore lattice. For a finite D>>|J|, the low-energy physics is described by a < 111 >…
Encoding classical data on quantum spin Hamiltonians yields ordered spin ground states which are used to discriminate data types for binary classification. The Ising Hamiltonian is a typical spin model to encode classical data onto qubits,…
We study first-order (single-magnon) inelastic light scatterings in spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ two-dimensional quasiperiodic antiferromagnets in comparison with those emergent on periodic lattices. Unlike second-order (two-magnon) Raman scatterings…
Unlike charge and spin, the orbital degree of freedom of electrons in transition metal oxides is difficult to detect. We present the theoretical study of a new detection method in metallic orbitally active systems by analyzing the…
Photoinduced hidden phases are often observed in materials with intertwined orders. Understanding the formation of these non-thermal phases is challenging and requires a resolution of the cooperative interplay between different orders on…
Phase diagram of an Ising-spin Kondo lattice model on a triangular lattice near 1/3-filling is investigated by Monte Carlo simulation. We identify a partially disordered phase with coexistence of magnetic order and paramagnetic moments,…
A discrete time crystal is a recently discovered non-equilibrium phase of matter that has been shown to exist in disordered, periodically driven Ising spin chains. In this phase, if the system is initially prepared in one of a certain class…
We analyze the ordered state of nuclear spins embedded in an interacting two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) with Rashba spin-orbit interaction (SOI). Stability of the ferromagnetic nuclear-spin phase is governed by nonanalytic dependences…
Symmetry invariants of a group specify the classes of quasiparticles, namely the classes of projective irreducible co-representations in systems having that symmetry. More symmetry invariants exist in discrete point groups than the full…
Solids with strong electron correlations generally develop exotic phases of electron matter at low temperatures. Among such systems, the heavy-fermion semi-metal URu2Si2 presents an enigmatic transition at To = 17.5 K to a `hidden order'…
Ensembles of particles rotating in a two-dimensional fluid can exhibit chaotic dynamics yet develop signatures of hidden order. Such "rotors" are found in the natural world spanning vastly disparate length scales - from the rotor proteins…
Spontaneous, collective ordering of electronic degrees of freedom leads to second-order phase transitions that are characterized by an order parameter. The notion "hidden order" (HO) has recently been used for a variety of materials where a…
Phase transitions and symmetry are intimately linked. Melting of ice, for example, restores translation invariance. The mysterious hidden order (HO) phase of URu$_2$Si$_2$ has, despite relentless research efforts, kept its symmetry breaking…
Close to half filling and in the limit of strong interactions the Hubbard model leads a spin Hamiltonian. In its original isotropic form this is the Heisenberg model with antiferromagnetic coupling $J$. On a square lattice there is no…
