Unravelling the nature of doping-induced transition between a Mott insulator and a weakly correlated metal is crucial to understanding novel emergent phases in strongly correlated materials. For this purpose, we study the evolution of…

In a solid material strong interactions between the electrons can lead to surprising properties. A prime example is the Mott insulator, where the suppression of conductivity is a result of interactions and not the consequence of a filled…

We prepare and study a two-component Mott insulator of bosonic atoms with two particles per site. The mapping of this system to a magnetic spin model, and the subsequent study of its quantum phases, require a detailed knowledge of the…

We show here that many of the normal state properties of the cuprates can result from the new charge 2e bosonic field which we have recently (Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 99}, 46404 (2007) and Phys. Rev. B 77, 014512 (2008)) shown to exist in the…

A long-standing issue in the physics of strongly correlated electronic systems is whether the motion of a single hole in quantum antiferromagnets can be understood in terms of the quasiparticle picture. Very recently, investigations of this…

Recently there has been an interest in applying the concept of weak values and weak measurements to condensed matter systems. Here a weak measurement protocol is proposed for obtaining the $Z_2$ index of a topological insulator. The setup…

We investigate exciton confinement to a quantum wire in monolayer $\text{MoSe}_2$ where the confinement is achieved by a p-i-n junction. We employ an effective-mass exciton model and solve the problem numerically, reflecting device…

Significant efforts have been dedicated to achieving excitonic insulators. In this paper, we explore a new problem of doping excitons into a Mott insulator instead of a band insulator. Specifically, we start with a Mott insulator on a…

Using the low-energy effective field theory for magnons and holes -- the condensed matter analog of baryon chiral perturbation theory for pions and nucleons in QCD -- we study different phases of doped antiferromagnets. We systematically…

Hybrid magnonics involving coupling between magnons and different quantum particles have been extensively studied during past few years for varied interests including quantum electrodynamics. In such systems, magnons in magnetic materials…

We study one-dimensional trapped Bose gases in the strongly interacting regime. The systems are created in an optical lattice and are subject to a longitudinal periodic potential. Bragg spectroscopy enables us to investigate the excitation…

The Mott insulator is the quintessential strongly correlated electronic state. We obtain complete insight into the physics of the two-dimensional Mott insulator by extending the slave-fermion (holon-doublon) description to finite…

The moir\'e Hubbard model describes correlations in certain homobilayer twisted transition metal dichalcogenides. Using exact diagonalization and density matrix renormalization group methods, we find magnetic Mott insulating and metallic…

We address scatterings of spin waves off uncorrelated defects in two-dimensional (2D) easy-axis antiferromagnet (AFM) insulators. Although an onsite magnetic anisotropy leads gapped Goldstone modes, such that a long range (AFM) order can be…

Microwave frequency conductivity, Re($\sigma_{xx}$), of high quality two-dimensional hole systems (2DHS) in a large perpendicular magnetic field (B) is measured with the carrier density ($n_s$) of the 2DHS controlled by a backgate bias. The…

We report on the observation of confinement-induced resonances for strong three-dimensional (3D) confinement in a lattice potential. Starting from a Mott-insulator state with predominantly single-site occupancy, we detect loss and heating…

We study the effects of electronic correlations on fragile topology using dynamical mean-field theory. Fragile topological insulators (FTIs) offer obstruction to the formation of exponentially localized Wannier functions, but they can be…

On the basis of quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) simulations we study the formation of Mott domains in the one-dimensional Hubbard model with an additional confining potential. We find evidences of quantum critical behavior at the boundaries of…

In 2D topological insulators (TIs) based on semiconductor quantum wells such as HgTe/CdTe or InAs/GaSb/AlSb, spin polarized edge states have been predicted with a massless Dirac like dispersion. In a hard wall treatment based on the 4 x 4…

Motivated by recent experimental work, we consider spin transport between a normal metal and a gapped quantum paramagnet. We model the latter as the magnonic Mott-insulating phase of an easy-plane ferromagnetic insulator. We evaluate the…
