Topological metamaterials exhibit unusual behaviors at their boundaries, such as unidirectional chiral waves, that are protected by a topological feature of their band structure. The ability to tune such a material through a topological…
Atoms deeply trapped in magic wavelength optical lattices provide a Doppler- and collision-free dense ensemble of quantum emitters ideal for high precision spectroscopy. Thus, they are the basis of some of the best optical clock setups to…
We investigate topological features in the synthetic Fock-state lattice (FSL) of a single-atom system described by the quantum Rabi model. By diagonalizing the Hamiltonian, we identify a zero-energy defect state localized at a domain wall…

We propose an experimental scheme to simulate and detect the properties of time-reversal invariant topological insulators, using cold atoms trapped in one-dimensional bichromatic optical lattices. This system is described by a…
Symmetry Protected Topological (SPT) phases describe trivially-acting symmetries. We argue that a symmetry-based description of SPT phases ought to include the topological twist fields associated to the symmetry. Doing so allows us to…
We propose a novel scheme for asymmetric light diffraction of a weak probe field into a one-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) lattice occupied with cold atoms. The atoms are driven into the double lambda-type configuration by a…
Synthetic fields applied to ultracold quantum gases can realize topological phases that transcend conventional Bose and Fermi-liquid paradigms. Raman laser beams in particular are under scrutiny as a route to create synthetic fields in…
Symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phases are short-range entangled phases of matter with a non-local order parameter which are preserved under a local symmetry group. Here, by using unsupervised learning algorithm, namely the diffusion…
Optical lattice clocks are the prospective devices that can probe many subtle physics including temporal variation of the fine structure constant ($\alpha_e$). These studies necessitate high-precision measurements of atomic clock frequency…
The stability of an optical atomic clock is a critical figure of merit for almost all clock applications. To this end, much optical atomic clock research has focused on reducing clock instability by increasing the atom number, lengthening…
We present an exactly solvable model for one-dimensional symmetry-protected topological phases with $\mathbb{Z}_N\times\mathbb{Z}_N$ symmetry. The model works by binding point topological defects (domain walls) of one symmetry to charges of…
In this work, we introduce a new type of topological order which is protected by subsystem symmetries which act on lower dimensional subsets of lattice many-body system, e.g. along lines or planes in a three dimensional system. The symmetry…
Optical lattices formed by interfering laser beams are widely used to trap and manipulate atoms for quantum simulation, metrology, and computation. To stabilize optical lattices in experiments, it is usually challenging to implement…
Attractive interaction between spinless fermions in a two-dimensional lattice drives the formation of a topological superfluid. But the topological phase is dynamically unstable towards phase separation when the system has a high density of…
We investigate the influence of atomic motion on precision Rabi spectroscopy of ultracold fermionic atoms confined in a deep, one dimensional (1D) optical lattice. We analyze the spectral components of longitudinal sideband spectra and…
