The origin of non-dispersive flat band modes for a quasi-one dimensional square-kagome ladder network is explored analytically by virtue of the real space renormalization group (RSRG) technique. A section of the eigenstates is non-diffusive…
Predicting the fate of an interacting system in the limit where the electronic bandwidth is quenched is often highly non-trivial. The complex interplay between interactions and quantum fluctuations driven by the band geometry can drive…
We study many-body localization in a one dimensional optical lattice filled with bosons. The interaction between bosons is assumed to be random, which can be realized for atoms close to a microchip exposed to a spatially fluctuating…
We study the quantum localization phenomena of noninteracting particles in one-dimensional lattices based on tight-binding models with various forms of hopping terms beyond the nearest neighbor, which are generalizations of the famous…
We theoretically investigate the behavior of a moving impurity immersed in a sea of fermionic atoms that are confined in a quasi-periodic (bichromatic) optical lattice, within a standard variational approach. We consider both repulsive and…
We experimentally demonstrate the photonic realization of a dispersionless flat-band in a quasi-one-dimensional photonic lattice fabricated by ultrafast laser inscription. In the nearest neighbor tight binding approximation, the lattice…
We study a model for ultracold, spinless atoms in quasi-one dimensional optical lattices and subjected to a tunable tilting force. Statistical tests are employed to quantitatively characterize the spectrum of the Floquet-Bloch operator of…
We study the localization properties of non-interacting waves propagating in a speckle-like potential superposed on a one-dimensional lattice. Using a decimation/renormalization procedure, we estimate the localization length for a…
We discuss flat-band surface states on the (111) surface in the tight-binding model with nearest-neighbor hopping on the diamond lattice, in analogy to the flat-band edge states in graphene with a zigzag edge. The bulk band is gapless, and…
We consider a one-dimensional classical many-body system with interaction potential of Lennard-Jones type in the thermodynamic limit at low temperature $1/\beta\in(0,\infty)$. The ground state is a periodic lattice. We show that when the…
We present an analytically exact scheme of unraveling a multitude of flat, dispersionless photonic bands in a kagome waveguide strip where each elementary plaquette hosts a deterministic fractal geometry of arbitrary size. The number of…
The study of disorder effects in electronic systems is one of the central themes in physics. It is well established that in the Anderson localization regime, the localization length of electrons decreases monotonically as the disorder…
The localized nature of a flat band is understood by the existence of a compact localized eigenstate. However, the localization properties of a partially flat band, ubiquitous in surface modes of topological semimetals, have been unknown.…
The venerable phenomena of Anderson localization, along with the much more recent many-body localization, both depend crucially on the presence of disorder. The latter enters either in the form of quenched disorder in the parameters of the…
The many-body localization transition for Heisenberg spin chain with a speckle disorder is studied. Such a model is equivalent to a system of spinless fermions in an optical lattice with an additional speckle field. Our numerical results…
Controlling light-matter interactions is central to photonic technologies ranging from lasers to optical information processing. Suitably designed photonic structures give rise to flat (dispersionless) bands, where the density of states…
We study theoretically transitions between the localized and chaotic many-body regimes in one-dimensional quantum lattice systems with long-range couplings between particles and linear external potential. In terms of established criteria…
The interaction between non-reciprocity and disorder-free localization has emerged as a fascinating open question. Here, we explore the effects of pseudo mobility edges (MEs) along with different types of eigenstates in a one-dimensional…
We study the effects of quasiperiodic Aubry-Andr\'e (AA) disorder and interactions on a one-dimensional all-band-flat (ABF) diamond chain. We consider the application of disorder in two ways: a symmetric one, where the same disorder is…
Recent theoretical and numerical evidence suggests that localization can survive in disordered many-body systems with very high energy density, provided that interactions are sufficiently weak. Stronger interactions can destroy…
