Unraveling PXP Many-Body Scars through Floquet Dynamics
Giuliano Giudici, Federica Maria Surace, Hannes Pichler
Quantum scars are special eigenstates of many-body systems that evade thermalization. They were first discovered in the PXP model, a well-known effective description of Rydberg ato…
Scalable, ab initio protocol for quantum simulating SU()U(1) Lattice Gauge Theories
Federica Maria Surace, Pierre Fromholz, Francesco Scazza +1
We propose a protocol for the scalable quantum simulation of SU()U(1) lattice gauge theories with alkaline-earth like atoms in optical lattices in both one- and two-dime…
Detecting a long lived false vacuum with quantum quenches
Gianluca Lagnese, Federica Maria Surace, Sid Morampudi +1
Distinguishing whether a system supports alternate low-energy (locally stable) states -- stable (true vacuum) versus metastable (false vacuum) -- by direct observation can be diffi…
Robustness and eventual slow decay of bound states of interacting microwave photons in the Google Quantum AI experiment
Federica Maria Surace, Olexei Motrunich
Integrable models are characterized by the existence of stable excitations that can propagate indefinitely without decaying. This includes multi-magnon bound states in the celebrat…
Weak integrability breaking perturbations of integrable models
Federica Maria Surace, Olexei Motrunich
A quantum integrable system slightly perturbed away from integrability is typically expected to thermalize on timescales of order , where is the perturbation stre…
derivation of lattice gauge theory dynamics for cold gases in optical lattices
Federica Maria Surace, Pierre Fromholz, Nelson Darkwah Oppong +2
We introduce a method for quantum simulation of U lattice gauge theories coupled to matter, utilizing alkaline-earth(-like) atoms in state-dependent optical lattices. The prop…
