Feshbach modulation spectroscopy

A. Dirks, K. Mikelsons, H. R. Krishnamurthy +1

In the vicinity of a Feshbach resonance, a system of ultracold atoms on an optical lattice undergoes rich physical transformations which involve molecule formation and hopping of m…

Role of the van Hove Singularity in the Quantum Criticality of the Hubbard Model

K. -S. Chen, S. Pathak, S. -X. Yang +5

A quantum critical point (QCP), separating the non-Fermi liquid region from the Fermi liquid, exists in the phase diagram of the 2D Hubbard model [Vidhyadhiraja et. al, Phys. Rev.…

Thermalization of field driven quantum systems

H. Fotso, K. Mikelsons, J. K. freericks

There is much interest in how quantum systems thermalize after a sudden change, because unitary evolution should preclude thermalization. The eigenstate thermalization hypothesis r…

Thermodynamics of the Quantum Critical Point at Finite Doping in the 2D Hubbard Model: A Dynamical Cluster Approximation Study

K. Mikelsons, E. Khatami, D. Galanakis +3

We study the thermodynamics of the two-dimensional Hubbard model within the dynamical cluster approximation. We use continuous time quantum Monte Carlo as a cluster solver to avoid…

Simulation of inhomogeneous distributions of ultracold atoms in an optical lattice via a massively parallel implementation of nonequilibrium strong-coupling perturbation theory

A. Dirks, K. Mikelsons, H. R. Krishnamurthy +1

We present a nonequilibrium strong-coupling approach to inhomogeneous systems of ultracold atoms in optical lattices. We demonstrate its application to the Mott-insulating phase of…

Theoretical Description of Coherent Doublon Creation via Lattice Modulation Spectroscopy

A. Dirks, K. Mikelsons, H. R. Krishnamurthy +1

Using a recently developed strong-coupling method, we present a comprehensive theory for doublon production processes in modulation spectroscopy of a three-dimensional system of ul…
