Fractal ground state of ion chains in periodic potentials
Raphaël Menu, Jorge Yago Malo, Vladan Vuletić +2
Trapped ions in a periodic potential are a paradigm of a frustrated Wigner crystal. The dynamics is captured by a long-range Frenkel-Kontorova model. The classical ground state can…
Quantum frustrated Wigner chains
Raphaël Menu, Jorge Yago Malo, Vladan Vuletić +2
A Wigner chain in a periodic potential is a paradigmatic example of geometric frustration with long-range interactions. The dynamics emulates the Frenkel-Kontorova model with Coulo…
Gaussian-state Ansatz for the non-equilibrium dynamics of quantum spin lattices
Raphaël Menu, Tommaso Roscilde
The study of non-equilibrium dynamics is one of the most important challenges of modern quantum many-body physics, in relationship with fundamental questions in quantum statistical…
