We develop a theory of the nonlinear optical responses in superconducting systems in the presence of a dc supercurrent. The optical transitions between particle-hole pair bands across the superconducting gap are allowed in clean…
In the last few years charge density waves (CDWs) have been ubiquitously observed in high-temperature superconducting cuprates and are now the most investigated among the competing orders in the still hot debate on these systems. A wealth…
Charge order is commonly believed to compete with superconducting order. An intertwined form of superconducting wave function, known as pair-density-wave (PDW) order, has been proposed; however, there has been no direct evidence,…
We explore the interplay of a charge density wave (CDW) order and s-wave superconductivity (sSC) in a disordered system. Recent experiments on 1T-TiSe_2, where the pristine sample has a commensurate CDW order and the superconductivity…
A major obstacle in understanding the mechanism of Cooper pairing in the cuprates is the existence of various intertwined orders associated with spin, charge, and Cooper pairs. Of particular importance is the ubiquitous charge order…
We apply the density-matrix renormalization group (DMRG) method to a one-dimensional Hubbard model that lacks Umklapp scattering and thus provides an ideal case to study the Mott-Hubbard transition analytically and numerically. The model…
The tunability of materials properties by light promises a wealth of future applications in energy conversion and information technology. Strongly correlated materials such as transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) offer optical control…
Quantum ratchets exhibit asymptotic currents when driven by a time-periodic potential of zero mean if the proper spatio-temporal symmetries are broken. There has been recent debate on whether directed currents may arise for potentials which…
The control of transport properties is a key tool at the basis of many technologically relevant effects in condensed matter. The clean and precisely controlled environment of ultracold atoms in optical lattices allows one to prepare…
We investigate the charge-density wave (CDW) transition for one-dimensional spinless fermions at half band-filling with nearest-neighbor electron transfer amplitude $t$ and interaction $V$. The model is equivalent to the anisotropic XXZ…
We study the dynamical spin susceptibility of a correlated d-wave superconductor (dSC) in the presence of disorder, using an unrestricted Hartree-Fock approach. This model provides a concrete realization of the notion that disorder slows…
The frustrated triangular Ising magnet Ca$_3$Co$_2$O$_6$ has long been known for an intriguing combination of extremely slow spin dynamics and peculiar magnetic orders, such as the evenly-spaced non-equilibrium metamagnetic magnetization…
It is demonstrated that the non-instantaneous response of the optically induced coherent polarization tremendously influences the real-space shift of electronic charges in semiconductors. The possibility to coherently control this…
LaAgSb$_{2}$ is a rare material, which offers the opportunity to investigate the complex interplay between charge density wave (CDW) ordering and topology protected electronic band structure. As both of these phenomena are governed by the…
Spontaneous symmetry breaking constitutes a paradigmatic classification scheme of matter. However, broken symmetry also entails domain degeneracy that often impedes identification of novel low symmetry states. In quantum matter, this is…
The high-temperature normal state of the unconventional cuprate superconductors has resistivity linear in temperature $T$, which persists to values well beyond the Mott-Ioffe-Regel upper bound. At low-temperature, within the pseudogap…
We study the pairing potential induced by fluctuations around a charge-density wave (CDW) with scattering vector Q by means of the Froehlich transformation. For general commensurability M, defined as |k+M*Q>=|k>, we find that the intraband…
A theoretical study of the coherent light scattering from disordered photonic crystal is presented. In addition to the conventional enhancement of the reflected light intensity into the backscattering direction, the so called coherent…
A charge-density-wave (CDW) is characterized by a dynamical order parameter consisting of a time-dependent amplitude and phase, which manifest as optically-active collective modes of the CDW phase. Studying the behaviour of such collective…
The effects of Umklapp scattering on electronic states are studied in one spatial dimension at absolute zero. The model is basically the Hubbard model, where parameters characterizing the normal ($U$) and Umklapp ($V$) scattering are…
