Recently, a quantum anomalous Hall state at odd integer filling in moir\'e stacked MoTe$_2$/WSe$_2$ was convincingly interpreted as a topological Mott insulator state appearing due to strong interactions in {\it band} basis [P. Mai, J.…

We investigate the importance of quantum orbital fluctuations in the orthorhombic and monoclinic phases of the Mott insulators LaVO3 and YVO3. First, we construct ab-initio material-specific t2g Hubbard models. Then, by using dynamical…

We study itinerant ferromagnetism in a $t_{2g}$ multi-orbital Hubbard system in the cubic lattice, which consists of three planar oriented orbital bands of $d_{xy}$, $d_{yz}$, and $d_{zx}$. Electrons in each orbital band can only move…

The Mott insulator and superfluid phase transition is one of the most prominent phenomena in ultracold atoms. In this work, we report the observation of a novel 2D quantum phase transition between Mott insulator and $\pi$ superfluid in a…

To clarify a crucial role of a spin-orbit coupling in the emergence of novel spin-orbital states in $5d$-electron compounds such as Sr$_{2}$IrO$_{4}$, we investigate ground state properties of a $t_{\rm 2g}$-orbital Hubbard model on a…

We examine the effects of quantum fluctuations on a classical spin liquid state in the fully-frustrated honeycomb lattice Bose Hubbard model using quantum Monte Carlo simulations. Frustration is induced explicitly in the model by modulating…

Recently, a number of experiments indicate the possible presence of spin liquid phases in quantum magnets with spin-1/2 and spin-1 moments sitting on triangular-lattice-based structures in Ba3CuSb2O9 and Ba3NiSb2O9 respectively. In relation…

Quantum spin liquid states, in which spins are quantum-mechanically delocalized in direction, have been so far studied for charge-localized Mott insulators arising from strong repulsive interaction. Recently, however, it was found that the…

The classical Ising model on the frustrated 3d swedenborgite lattice has disordered spin liquid ground states for all ratios of inter- and intra-planar couplings. Quantum fluctuations due to a transverse field give rise to several exotic…

The quest for entangled spin excitations has stimulated intense research on frustrated magnetic systems. For almost two decades, the triangular-lattice Mott insulator $\kappa$-(BEDT-TTF)$_2$Cu$_2$(CN)$_3$ has been the hottest candidate for…

The quantum spin liquid (QSL) is an exotic phase of magnetic materials where the spins continue to fluctuate without any symmetry breaking down to zero temperature. Among the handful reports of QSL with spin $S\ge$1, examples with magnetic…

We study the effective spin-orbital model for honeycomb-layered transition metal compounds, applying the second-order perturbation theory to the three-orbital Hubbard model with the anisotropic hoppings. This model is reduced to the Kitaev…

We perform large scale finite-temperature Monte Carlo simulations of the classical $e_g$ and $t_{2g}$ orbital models on the simple cubic lattice in three dimensions. The $e_g$ model displays a continuous phase transition to an orbitally…

We study the $3d$ substitution in $4d$ transition metal oxides in the cases of $3d^3$ doping at either $3d^2$ or $4d^4$ sites which realize orbital dilution. We derive the effective $3d-4d$ (or $3d-3d$) superexchange in a Mott insulator…

We consider bosonic dipolar molecules in an optical lattice prepared in a mixture of different rotational states. The 1/r^3 interaction between molecules for this system is produced by exchanging a quantum of angular momentum between two…

The mechanisms of magnetic and orbital interactions due to double exchange (DE) and superexchange (SE) in transition metal oxides with degenerate e_g orbitals are presented. Specifically, we study the effective spin-orbital models derived…

Resonant x-ray diffraction experiments were performed for the metallic iridium oxide IrO$_{2}$. We observed anisotropic tensor of susceptibility (ATS) scattering, the spectrum of which shows a sharp contrast between the $L_{3}$ and $L_{2}$…

Hyperhoneycomb iridate $\beta$-Li$_2$IrO$_3$ is a three-dimensional analogue of two-dimensional honeycomb iridates, such as $\alpha$-Li$_2$IrO$_3$, which recently appeared as another playground for the physics of Kitaev-type spin liquid.…

We carried out temperature-dependent (20 - 550 K) measurements of resonant inelastic X-ray scattering on LaCoO$_3$ to investigate the evolution of its electronic structure across the spin-state crossover. In combination with charge-transfer…

Using ab initio calculations, we have investigated an insulating tetragonally distorted perovskite BaCrO$_3$ with a formal $3d^2$ configuration, the volume of which is apparently substantially enhanced by a strain due to SrTiO$_3$…
