We review some recent results on discrete symmetries and topological order in spinor Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) of $^{23}Na$. For spin one bosons with two-body scatterings dominated by a total spin equal to two channel, the BECs are…
Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) of triplet excitations triggered by a magnetic field, sometimes called magnon BEC, in dimerized antiferromagnets gives rise to a long-range antiferromagnetic order in the plane perpendicular to the applied…
Spin-orbit coupling related new physics and quantum magnetism are two branches of great interest both in condensed matter physics and in cold atomic physics. With the introduction of a Rashba-like SOC into a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC)…
Topological inhomogeneity gives rise to spectral anomalies that can induce Bose-Einstein Condensation (BEC) in low dimensional systems. These anomalies consist in energy regions composed of an infinite number of states with vanishing weight…
We study the three-dimensional U(1) lattice gauge theory of a CP$^1$ spinon (Schwinger boson) field and a Higgs field. It is a bosonic $t$-$J$ model in slave-particle representation, describing the antiferromagnetic (AF) Heisenberg spin…
Large spin systems can exhibit unconventional types of magnetic ordering different from the ferromagnetic or N\'eel-like antiferromagnetic order commonly found in spin 1/2 systems. Spin-nematic phases, for instance, do not break…
We consider the Josephson Effect between two spatially separated Bose-Einstein condensates of atoms each of which can be in two hyperfine states. We derive simple equations of motion for this system closely analogous to the Bloch equations.…
We investigate the presence of off-diagonal long-range order in a harmonically confined two-dimensional Bose gas. In the noninteracting case, an analytical calculation of the the finite-temperature one-particle density martix provides an…
We have studied theoretically the Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) of two-dimensional excitons in a ring with small random width variation. We derive a nonlinear Gross-Pitaevkii equation (GPE) for such a condensate. Our numerical solution…
I present an overview of the physics of the Josephson effect between Bose condensed systems, with emphasis on the recently achieved BEC's in trapped alkali gases. I focus mostly on those physical phenomena that are likely to be observed…
We consider the topological defects and spin structures of spin-1 Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) with spin-orbit coupling (SOC) and dipole-dipole interaction (DDI) in a rotating harmonic plus quartic trap. The combined effects of SOC, DDI…
We have experimentally investigated the formation of off-diagonal long-range order in a gas of ultracold atoms. A magnetically trapped atomic cloud prepared in a highly nonequilibrium state thermalizes and thereby crosses the Bose-Einstein…
We investigate the structure of trapped Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) with long-range anisotropic dipolar interactions. We find that a small perturbation in the trapping potential can lead to dramatic changes in the condensate's density…
We report on the creation of dual-species Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) of $^{23}$Na atoms and $^{133}$Cs atoms. We demonstrate sympathetic cooling of Cs with Na in a magnetic quadrupole trap and a crossed optical dipole trap, leading to…
Spin-orbit (SO) coupling can be introduced in a Bose--Einstein condensate (BEC) as a gauge potential acting only in a localized spatial domain. Effect of such a SO "defect" can be understood by transforming the system to the integrable…
We present an algebraic framework for identifying the order parameter and the possible phases of quantum systems that is based on identifying the local dimension $N$ of the quantum operators and using the SU(N) group representing the…
The collapsing dynamics of a trapped Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) with attractive interaction are revealed to exhibit two previously unknown phenomena. During the collapse, BEC undergoes a series of rapid implosions that occur {\it…
We consider the stability of an ultracold trapped Bose-Einstein condensate near a Feshbach resonance. Using a modified Gross-Pitaevskii equation that includes higher-order terms and a multi-channel model of Feshbach resonances, we find…
We show that spatial Bose-Einstein condensation of non-interacting bosons occurs in dimension d < 2 over discrete structures with inhomogeneous topology and with no need of external confining potentials. Josephson junction arrays provide a…
In this paper, we investigate the impact of higher-order interactions on the modulational instability (MI) of Bose-Einstein Condensates (BECs) immersed in an optical lattice potential. We derive the new variational equations for the time…
