Photon-mediated Peierls Transition of a 1D Gas in a Multimode Optical Cavity
Colin Rylands, Yudan Guo, Benjamin L. Lev +2
The Peierls instability toward a charge density wave is a canonical example of phonon-driven strongly correlated physics and is intimately related to topological quantum matter and…

Dynamical Quantum Phase transitions and Recurrences in the Non-Equilibrium BCS model
Colin Rylands, Victor Galitski
Non-equilibrium aspects of the BCS model have fascinated physicists for decades, from the seminal works of Eliashberg to modern realizations in cold atom experiments. The latter sc…
