Carbon nanotubes are a versatile material in which many aspects of condensed matter
physics come together. Recent discoveries have uncovered new phenomena that …

A review of Boundary and defect conformal field theory: open problems and applications,
following a workshop held at Chicheley Hall, Buckinghamshire, UK, 7–8 Sept. 2017. We …

Quantum phase transitions (QPTs) are ubiquitous in strongly correlated materials. However,
the microscopic complexity of these systems impedes the quantitative understanding of …

Quantum critical systems derive their finite-temperature properties from the influence of a
zero-temperature quantum phase transition. The paradigm is essential for understanding …

We review recent developments regarding the quantum dynamics and many-body physics
with light, in superconducting circuits and Josephson analogues, by analogy with atomic …

Hybrid semiconductor-superconductor nanowires are predicted to host Majorana zero
modes that induce zero-bias peaks (ZBPs) in tunneling conductance. ZBPs alone, however …

Quantum impurity models (QIMs) are ubiquitous throughout physics. As simplified toy
models they provide crucial insights for understanding more complicated strongly correlated …

The Majorana search is caught up in an extensive debate about the false-positive signals
from nontopological Andreev bound states. We introduce a remedy using the dissipative …

We investigate the nonreciprocal quantum phase transition in a cavity magnonic system
driven by a parametric field, where an yttrium iron garnet (YIG) sphere is placed in a …

We introduce and apply a numerically exact method for investigating the real-time
dissipative dynamics of quantum impurities embedded in a macroscopic environment …
