Transport and entanglement across integrable impurities from generalized hydrodynamics

C Rylands, P Calabrese - Physical Review Letters, 2023 - APS
Quantum impurity models (QIMs) are ubiquitous throughout physics. As simplified toy
models they provide crucial insights for understanding more complicated strongly correlated …

Kondo effect in the isotropic Heisenberg spin chain

P Kattel, PR Pasnoori, JH Pixley, P Azaria, N Andrei - Physical Review B, 2024 - APS
We investigate the boundary effects that arise when spin-1 2 impurities interact with the
edges of the antiferromagnetic spin-1 2 Heisenberg chain through spin exchange …

The Kondo effect in the quantum XX spin chain

P Kattel, Y Tang, JH Pixley… - Journal of Physics A …, 2024 - iopscience.iop.org
We investigate the boundary phenomena that arise in a finite-size XX spin chain interacting
through an XX interaction with a spin -12 impurity located at its edge. Upon Jordan-Wigner …

Spectral properties of fractionalized Shiba states

CP Moca, C Hajdú, B Dóra, G Zaránd - arxiv preprint arxiv:2412.14627, 2024 - arxiv.org
A magnetic impurity in a BCS superconductor induces the formation of a Shiba state and
drives a local quantum phase transition. We generalize this concept to a one-dimensional …

A spin chain with non-Hermitian symmetric boundary couplings: exact solution, dissipative Kondo effect, and phase transitions on the edge

P Kattel, PR Pasnoori, JH Pixley, N Andrei - arxiv preprint arxiv …, 2024 - arxiv.org
We construct an exactly solvable $\mathscr {PT}-$ symmetric non-Hermitian model where a
spin $-\frac {1}{2} $ isotropic quantum Heisenberg spin chain is coupled to two spin $-\frac …

Edge modes and boundary impurities in the anisotropic Heisenberg spin chain

P Kattel, PR Pasnoori, JH Pixley, N Andrei - arxiv preprint arxiv …, 2024 - arxiv.org
We present a comprehensive analysis of boundary phenomena in a spin-$\frac {1}{2} $
anisotropic Heisenberg chain (XXZ-$\frac {1}{2} $) in the gapped antiferromagnetic phase …

Overscreened spin- Kondo impurity and Shiba state at the edge of a one-dimensional spin-1 superconducting wire

P Kattel, A Zhakenov, N Andrei - arxiv preprint arxiv:2412.01924, 2024 - arxiv.org
We consider a model describing a system where the superconductivity competes with the
overscreened Kondo effect. The model consists of a single spin $-\frac {1}{2} $ quantum …

Boundary phenomena and phase transitions in strongly correlated one dimensional systems

PR Pasnoori - 2022 - search.proquest.com
One dimensional quantum systems exhibit many interesting physical phenomena as a result
of strong correlations. The gapped systems with symmetries exhibit exotic phases and are …
