Disorder-free localization is a paradigm of strong ergodicity breaking that has been shown to occur in global quenches of lattice gauge theories when the system is initialized in a superposition over an extensive number of gauge sectors.…

We study numerically the linear optical response of a quasiparticle moving on a one-dimensional disordered lattice in the presence of a linear bias. The random site potential is assumed to be long-range-correlated with a power-law spectral…

Arrays of coupled superconducting qubits are analog quantum simulators able to emulate a wide range of tight-binding models in parameter regimes that are difficult to access or adjust in natural materials. In this work, we use a…

Quantum many-body scars enable persistent non-ergodic dynamics in otherwise thermalizing systems, yet their stabilization typically relies on fine-tuned initial states or engineered Hamiltonian perturbations. Here we show that lattice…

Localization due to the presence of disorder has proven crucial for our current understanding of relaxation in isolated quantum systems. The many-body localized phase constitutes a robust alternative to the thermalization of complex…

A one-dimensional lattice model with mosaic quasiperiodic potential is found to exhibit interesting localization properties, e.g., clear mobility edges [Y. Wang et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{125}, 196604 (2020)]. We generalize this…

Flat energy bands of model lattice Hamiltonians provide a key ingredient in designing dispersionless wave excitations and have become a versatile platform to study various aspects of interacting many-body systems. Their essential merit lies…

To explore superfluidity in flat-band systems, we consider a Bose-Hubbard model on a cross-linked ladder with $\pi$ flux, which has a flat band with a gap between the other band for noninteracting particles, where we study the effect of the…

Flat bands, characterized by zero group velocity and strong energy localization, enable interaction-enhanced phenomena across both quantum and classical systems. Existing photonic flat-band implementations were limited to evanescent-wave…

We investigate the effects of disorder and lattice geometry against localisation phenomena in a weakly interacting ultracold bosonic gas confined in a 2D optical lattice. The behaviour of the quantum fluid is studied at the mean-field level…

We consider quantum scattering of particles in media exhibiting strong dispersion degeneracy. In particular, we study flat-banded lattices and linearly dispersed energy bands. The former constitute a prime example of single-particle…

Dispersionless bands, such as Landau levels, serve as a good starting point for obtaining interesting correlated states when interactions are added. With this motivation in mind, we study a variety of dispersionless ("flat") band structures…

Emerging experimental platforms use amorphousness, a constrained form of disorder, to tailor meta-material properties. We study localization under this type of disorder in a family of 2D models generalizing recent experiments on photonic…

In this work we theoretically study, using Floquet-Bloch theory, the influence of circularly and linearly polarized light on two-dimensional band structures with Dirac and quadratic band touching points, and flat bands, taking the nearest…

We study localization and flat-band formation in lattices generated by repeated edge inflation of square, honeycomb, and triangular parent lattices. Replacing each bond by a finite tight-binding chain produces several distinct classes of…

The possibility of observing many body localization of ultracold atoms in a one dimensional optical lattice is discussed for random interactions. In the non-interacting limit, such a system reduces to single-particle physics in the absence…

Recently, the possibility of high-temperature superconductivity (SC) in flat-band (FB) systems has been the focus of a great deal of activity. This study reveals that unlike conventional intra-band SC for which disorder has a dramatic…

We systematically study the effect of disorder and interactions on a quasi-one dimensional diamond chain possessing flat bands. Disorder localizes all the single particle eigenstates, while at low disorder strengths we obtain weak flat-band…

The effect of disorder on flux lattices at equilibrium is studied quantitatively in the absence of free dislocations using both the Gaussian variational method and the renormalization group. Our results for the mean square relative…

The interplay of hopping parameters that can give rise to flat bands in consequence of quantum interference in electronic, photonic, and other interesting materials has become an extensively studied topic. Most of the recognized structures…
