Weak ergodicity breaking without nonthermal eigenstates
Boning Huang, Yongguan Ke, Li Zhang +2
The typical mechanisms of ergodicity breaking in isolated interacting quantum systems, such as many-body localization and quantum many-body scars, originate from the nonthermal nat…
Localization and scattering of a photon in quasiperiodic qubit arrays
Xinyin Zhang, Yongguan Ke, Zhengzhi Peng +4
We study the localization and scattering of a single photon in a waveguide coupled to qubit arrays with quasiperiodic spacings. As the quasiperiodic strength increases, localized s…
Extending Qubit Coherence Time via Hybrid Dynamical Decoupling
Qi Yao, Jun Zhang, Wenxian Zhang +1
Dynamical decoupling (DD) and bath engineering are two parallel techniques employed to mitigate qubit decoherence resulting from their unavoidable coupling to the environment. Here…
Photonic scattering in 2D waveguide QED: Quantum Goos-Hänchen shift
Yongguan Ke, Zhenzhi Peng, Muhib Ullah +1
Quantum emitters coupled to traveling photons in waveguides, known as waveguide quantum electrodynamics (WQED), offer a powerful platform for understanding light-matter interaction…
Zero-energy Quantum Many-Body Scar under Emergent Chiral Symmetry and Pseudo Hilbert Space Fragmentation
Li Zhang, Yongguan Ke, Chaohong Lee
Hilbert space fragmentation (HSF) is a mechanism for generating quantum many-body scar (QMBS), which provides a route to weakly break ergodicity. The zero-energy QMBSs widely exist…
Calculations of Chern number: equivalence of real-space and twisted-boundary-condition formulae
Ling Lin, Yongguan Ke, Li Zhang +1
Chern number is a crucial invariant for characterizing topological feature of two-dimensional quantum systems. Real-space Chern number allows us to extract topological properties o…
