Bosons on a rotating ring with free boundary conditions
arXiv:2106.03289 · doi:10.1088/1751-8121/ac1ee7
Abstract
We consider a system of interacting non-relativistic bosons confined to a one-dimensional ring in the presence of a synthetic gauge field induced by a rotating barrier. Interactions are introduced as a constraint in field space, and the barrier is modeled by general boundary conditions. Within this setup, we compute the effective action and investigate the profile of the ground state and its sensitivity from rotational velocity and the properties of the barrier.
