Many-body physics of ultracold alkaline-earth atoms with SU (N)-symmetric interactions

E Ibarra-García-Padilla… - Journal of Physics …, 2024 - iopscience.iop.org
Symmetries play a crucial role in understanding phases of matter and the transitions
between them. Theoretical investigations of quantum models with SU (N) symmetry have …

Counterflow superfluidity in a two-component Mott insulator

YG Zheng, A Luo, YC Shen, MG He, ZH Zhu, Y Liu… - Nature Physics, 2025 - nature.com
Counterflow superfluidity is an anomalous quantum phase that was predicted two decades
ago in the context of a two-component Bose–Hubbard model. In this phase, although both …

First-order photon condensation in magnetic cavities: A two-leg ladder model

Z Bacciconi, GM Andolina, T Chanda, G Chiriacò… - SciPost Physics, 2023 - scipost.org
We consider a model of free fermions in a ladder geometry coupled to a non-uniform cavity
mode via Peierls substitution. Since the cavity mode generates a magnetic field, no-go …

Persistent currents in ultracold gases

J Polo, WJ Chetcuti, T Haug, A Minguzzi… - arxiv preprint arxiv …, 2024 - arxiv.org
Persistent currents flowing in spatially closed tracks define one of the most iconic concepts
in mesoscopic physics. They have been studied in solid-state platforms such as superfluids …

The spontaneous disorder according to flat bands

DC Zhang - Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
A bosonic Creutz–Hubbard ladder is studied by solving the interacting Bose–Hubbard
model, with the help of exact diagonalization method. Under certain parameters, a single …

Dirac points and topological phases in correlated altermagnets

L Del Re - arxiv preprint arxiv:2408.14288, 2024 - arxiv.org
We explore a two-dimensional Hubbard model adapted to host altermagnetic states.
Utilizing Hartree-Fock (HF) and dynamical mean field theory (DMFT), we uncover that the …

Field control of symmetry-broken and quantum disordered phases in frustrated moiré bilayers with population imbalance

L Del Re, L Classen - Physical Review Research, 2024 - APS
We determine the ground states and excitation spectra of the paradigmatic four-flavor
Heisenberg model with nearest-and next-nearest-neighbor exchange couplings on the …

Vortex supersolid in the XY model with tunable vortex fugacity

I Maccari, N Defenu, C Castellani… - Journal of Physics …, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
In this paper, we investigate the XY model in the presence of an additional potential term
that independently tunes the vortex fugacity favouring their nucleation. By increasing the …

[PDF][PDF] scipost 202407 00001v2: Two-particle self-consistent approach for broken symmetry phases

L Del Re - 2024 - scipost.org
The characterisation of broken symmetry phases (BSP) in correlated quantum systems
remains a formidable challenge for many-body theory. In fact, determining the precise …

[PDF][PDF] Novel quantum states in multicomponent fermionic systems

M Ferraretto - 2024 - iris.sissa.it
The general framework of this thesis is the study of multicomponent strongly interacting
fermions moving on a lattice. These are defined as systems of many particles obeying the …
