We consider a two-photon transition in a specific ladder system driven by a chirped laser pulse. In the weak field limit, we find that the excited state probability amplitude arises due to interference of multiple quantum paths which are…

Topologically ordered systems in the presence of symmetries can exhibit new structures which are referred to as symmetry enriched topological (SET) phases. We introduce simple methods to detect the SET order directly from a complete set of…

We use transient absorption spectroscopy with circularly polarized x-rays to detect laser-excited hole states below the Fermi level and compare their dynamics with that of unoccupied states above the Fermi level in ferromagnetic [Co/Pd]…

We study the spectrum of scalar charged operators in Conformal Field Theories (CFTs) with a $U(1)$ global symmetry. The charged operators are dual, by the state-operator correspondence, to homogenous charged states on the sphere. Such…

We introduce novel higher-order topological phases of matter in chiral-symmetric systems (class AIII of the tenfold classification), most of which would be misidentified as trivial by current theories. These phases are protected by…

Bare-state population inversion is demonstrated in a two-level system with all dipole matrix elements nonzero. A laser field is resonantly driving the sample whereas a second weaker and lower frequency coherent field additionally pumps it…

We call `bits' a sequence of devices indexed by positive integers, where every device can be in two states: $0$ (idle) and $1$ (active). Start from the `ground state' of the system when all bits are in $0$-state. In our first Binary…

In this brief review, we introduce a new spin ladder system called skewed spin ladders and discuss the exotic quantum phases of this system. The spin ladders studied are the 5/7, 3/4 and 3/5 systems corresponding to alternately fused 5 and…

This dissertation discusses some properties of topologically ordered states as they appear in the setting of infinite quantum spin systems. We begin by studying the set of infinite volume ground states for Kitaev's abelian quantum double…

Incompressible (magic) states of vertically coupled quantum dots submitted to strong magnetic fields such that only the lowest Landau level is relevant are studied within an exact diagonalization calculation for N=3, 5 and 6, electrons. We…

We study invertible states of 1d bosonic quantum lattice systems. We show that every invertible 1d state is in a trivial phase: after tensoring with some unentangled ancillas it can be disentangled by a fuzzy analog of a finite-depth…

We use some general results regarding positive maps to exhibit examples of non-decomposable maps and 2^N x 2^N, N >= 2, bound entangled states, e.g. non distillable bipartite states of N + N qubits.

A recently conjectured microscopic realization of the dS$_4$/CFT$_3$ correspondence relating Vasiliev's higher-spin gravity on dS$_4$ to a Euclidean $Sp(N)$ CFT$_3$ is used to illuminate some previously inaccessible aspects of the dS/CFT…

We outline a program for interpreting the higher-spin dS/CFT model in terms of physics in the causal patch of a dS observer. The proposal is formulated in "elliptic" de Sitter space dS_4/Z_2, obtained by identifying antipodal points in…

We discuss physical constructions, and the boundary properties of various symmetry protected topological phases that involve 1-form symmetries, from one spatial dimension (1d) to four spatial dimensions (4d). For example, the prototype 3d…

We discuss a phenomenon in supersymmetric field theory and string theory whereby compactifying one of the dimensions of spacetime on an arbitrarily large circle can cause BPS states to become unstable. We exemplify this by considering 5d…

We propose Swampland constraints on consistent 5-dimensional ${\cal N}=1$ supergravity theories. We focus on a special class of BPS magnetic monopole strings which arise in gravitational theories. The central charges and the levels of…

The search for one-dimensional (1D) topologically-protected electronic states has become an important research goal for condensed matter physics owing to their potential use in spintronic devices or as a building block for topologically…

Symmetry topological field theory (SymTFT), or topological holography, offers a unifying framework for describing quantum phases of matter and phase transitions between them. While this approach has seen remarkable success in describing…

We present a characterization of the many-body lattice wave functions obtained from the conformal blocks (CBs) of the Ising conformal field theory (CFT). The formalism is interpreted as a matrix product state using continuous ancillary…
