In the quest for superconductors with high transition temperatures (T$_\mathrm{c}$s), one emerging motif is that unconventional superconductivity is enhanced by fluctuations of a broken-symmetry phase near a quantum-critical point. While…
Fluids cooled to the liquid-vapor critical point develop system-spanning fluctuations in density that transform their visual appearance. Despite the rich phenomenology of this critical point, there is not currently an explanation of the…
Exceptional points (EPs) are spectral defects displayed by non-Hermitian systems in which multiple degenerate eigenvalues share a single eigenvector. This distinctive feature makes systems exhibiting EPs more sensitive to external…
Long-range spin-spin interactions are known to generate non-equilibrium dynamics which can squeeze the collective spin of a quantum spin ensemble in a scalable manner, leading to states whose metrologically useful entanglement grows with…
The nontrivial degeneracies in non-Hermitian systems, exceptional points (EPs), have attracted extensive attention due to intriguing phenomena. Compared with commonly observed second-order EPs, high-order EPs show rich physics due to their…
Exceptional points (EPs) are singular points on a parameter space at which some eigenvalues (scattering poles) and their corresponding eigenmodes coalesce. This study shows the existence of second- and third-order EPs in cylindrical elastic…
In multi-band metals quasi-particles arising from different atomic orbitals coexist at a common Fermi surface. Superconductivity in these materials may appear due to interactions within a band (intra-band) or among the distinct metallic…
Recent years have seen a growing appreciation for the effects of quantum critical fluctuations on gapless boundary degrees of freedom. Here we consider the boundary dynamics of the non-compact $\mathbb{CP}^{N-1}$ (NCCP$^{N-1}$) model in two…
GKP codes encode a qubit in displaced phase space combs of a continuous-variable (CV) quantum system and are useful for correcting a variety of high-weight photonic errors. Here we propose atomic ensemble analogues of the single-mode CV GKP…
Facilitated spin models on random graphs provide an ideal microscopic realization of the mode-coupling theory of supercooled liquids: they undergo a purely dynamic glass transition with no thermodynamic singularity. In this paper we study…
The origin of the strange metallic behavior observed in a wide range of quantum materials is an open challenge to condensed matter physics. Historically, strange metals were uniquely associated with antiferromagnetic quantum critical points…
As a most important feature of non-Hermitian systems, exceptional points (EPs) lead to a variety of unconventional phenomena and applications. Here, we study a generic model composed of two coupled non-Hermitian qubits, the EPs can be…
Quantum entanglement, in the form of spin squeezing, is known to improve the sensitivity of atomic instruments to static or slowly-varying quantities. Sensing transient events presents a distinct challenge, requires different analysis…
Exceptional points (EPs) are singularities in the spectra of non-Hermitian operators, where eigenvalues and eigenvectors coalesce. Recently, open quantum systems have been increasingly explored as EP testbeds due to their natural…
We show that in the presence of spinodal instabilities which develop at a first order phase transition, the fluctuations of conserved charges can be as strong as those at the critical end point (CEP). In particular, the net baryon number…
Motivated by the experimental observation that superconductivity in bulk doped SrTiO$_{3}$ is enhanced as a putative ferroelectric quantum critical point (FE-QCP) is approached, we study the pairing instability of a cubic system in which…
We show that the concept of bipartite fluctuations F provides a very efficient tool to detect quantum phase transitions in strongly correlated systems. Using state of the art numerical techniques complemented with analytical arguments, we…
We study the single-particle spectral properties of a model for coexisting AFM and ICDW critical fluctuations coupled to electrons, which naturally arises in the context of the stripe-quantum-critical-point scenario for high-Tc…
Exceptional points (EPs) are distinct characteristics of non-Hermitian Hamiltonians that have no counterparts in Hermitian systems. In this study, we focus on EPs in continuous systems rather than discrete non-Hermitian systems, which are…
Establishing the presence and the nature of a quantum critical point in their phase diagram is a central enigma of the high-temperature superconducting cuprates. It could explain their pseudogap and strange metal phases, and ultimately…
