Flat band fine-tuning and its photonic applications

C Danieli, A Andreanov, D Leykam, S Flach - Nanophotonics, 2024 - degruyter.com
Flat bands–single-particle energy bands–in tight-binding lattices, aka networks, have
attracted attention due to the presence of macroscopic degeneracies and their sensitivity to …

Many-body flatband localization

C Danieli, A Andreanov, S Flach - Physical Review B, 2020 - APS
We generate translationally invariant systems exhibiting many-body localization from all-
bands-flat single-particle lattice Hamiltonians dressed with suitable short-range many-body …

Flat-band generator in two dimensions

W Maimaiti, A Andreanov, S Flach - Physical Review B, 2021 - APS
Dispersionless bands, flat bands, provide an excellent test bed for novel physical phases
due to the fine-tuned character of flat band tight-binding Hamiltonians. The accompanying …

Universal flat band generator from compact localized states

W Maimaiti, S Flach, A Andreanov - Physical Review B, 2019 - APS
The band structure of some translationally invariant lattice Hamiltonians contains strictly
dispersionless flat bands (FB). These are induced by destructive interference and typically …

Nonlinear dynamics of Aharonov-Bohm cages

M Di Liberto, S Mukherjee, N Goldman - Physical Review A, 2019 - APS
The interplay of π-flux and lattice geometry can yield full localization of quantum dynamics in
lattice systems, a striking interference phenomenon known as Aharonov-Bohm caging. At …
