Frustrated Rydberg Atom Arrays Meet Cavity-QED: Emergence of the Superradiant Clock Phase

Ying Liang, Bao-Yun Dong, Zi-Jian Xiong +1

Rydberg atom triangular arrays in an optical cavity serve as an ideal platform for understanding the interplay between geometric frustration and quantized photons. Using a large-sc…

Universal critical dynamics of quantum geometry

Shuohang Wu, Zhengxin Guo, Zijian Xiong +2

In this study, we prove that the quantum critical point in the ground state of quantum many-body systems, can also govern the universal dynamical behavior when the systems are driv…

Level spacing statistics of two unitary equivalent models with distinct local symmetries

Biquan Yang, Zijian Xiong

The full spectrum and integrability of unitary equivalent models are the same. A standard diagnostic tool of integrability is level spacing statistics which requires separating the…

1-form symmetry and the selection rule of the plaquette valence bond solid phase on kagome lattice

Zijian Xiong

We study the plaquette valence bond solid phase in a XXZ type spin-1/2 model in the kagome lattice. The low energy theory for this phase is a U(1) lattice gauge theory on the honey…

Constraints from global symmetries of quantum ice on the planar pyrochlore lattice

Zijian Xiong

We study the low energy effective theory of spin-1/2 quantum ice on the planar pyrochlore lattice from the perspective of its global symmetries. We show that the Fourier transform…

Deconfined quantum phase transition on the kagome lattice: Distinct velocities of spinon and string excitations

Dong-Xu Liu, Zijian Xiong, Yining Xu +1

Deconfined quantum phase transition (DQPT) provides an extraordinary possibility of the quantum phase transition beyond the Ginzburg-Landau paradigm, which is interwoven with numer…

Evidence for distortion-induced local electric polarization in -RuCl

Xinrun Mi, De Hou, Xiao Wang +14

The spin-orbit assisted Mott insulator -RuCl is a prime candidate for material realization of the Kitaev quantum spin liquid. While little attention has been paid to charge…
