Perfect elliptic dichroism: Probing the metric of anisotropic quantum Hall droplets
Bruno Mera, Alberto Nardin, Anaïs Defossez +3
Understanding the geometry of quantum Hall systems is a central challenge in modern condensed matter physics. We introduce a framework for probing the geometric structure of quantu…
Hall viscosity from metric-sensitive dichroic probes
Alberto Nardin, Bruno Mera, Anaïs Defossez +3
Hall viscosity characterizes the geometric response of a quantum Hall droplet to deformations of the underlying metric, yet it has remained difficult to measure directly. We propos…
Energy-Resolved Quantum Geometry from StÅeda Response: Driven-Dissipative Bosonic Lattices and Disordered Systems
Anaïs Defossez, Baptiste Bermond, Lucila Peralta Gavensky +1
The StÅeda formula links the Hall conductivity of an insulator to the magnetic-field response of its particle density, providing a local and universal probe of the topological Che…
Dichroism from Chiral Thermoelectric Probes: Generalized Sum Rules for Orbital and Heat Magnetizations
Baptiste Bermond, Lucila Peralta Gavensky, Anaïs Defossez +1
We introduce a unified framework that relates orbital and heat magnetizations to experimentally accessible excitation spectra, through thermoelectric probes and generalized sum rul…
A local quantized marker for topological magnons from circular dichroism
Baptiste Bermond, Anaïs Defossez, Nathan Goldman +1
The low-energy excitations of a spin system can display Bloch bands with non-trivial topological properties. While topological magnons can be identified through the detection of ch…
Dynamic Realization of Majorana Zero Modes in a Particle-Conserving Ladder
Anais Defossez, Laurens Vanderstraeten, Lucila Peralta Gavensky +1
We present a scheme to realize a topological superconducting system supporting Majorana zero modes, within a number-conserving framework suitable for optical-lattice experiments. O…
