Anisotropic optics and gravitational lensing of tilted Weyl fermions
Viktor Könye, Lotte Mertens, Corentin Morice +4
We show that tilted Weyl semimetals with a spatially varying tilt of the Weyl cones provide a platform for studying analogues to problems in anisotropic optics as well as curved sp…
Horizon physics of quasi-one-dimensional tilted Weyl cones on a lattice
Viktor Könye, Corentin Morice, Dmitry Chernyavsky +3
To simulate the dynamics of massless Dirac fermions in curved spacetimes with one, two, and three spatial dimensions we construct tight-binding Hamiltonians with spatially varying…
Thermalization by a synthetic horizon
Lotte Mertens, Ali G. Moghaddam, Dmitry Chernyavsky +3
Synthetic horizons in models for quantum matter provide an alternative route to explore fundamental questions of modern gravitational theory. Here, we apply these concepts to the p…
Quantum dynamics in 1D lattice models with synthetic horizons
Corentin Morice, Dmitry Chernyavsky, Jasper van Wezel +2
We investigate the wave packet dynamics and eigenstate localization in recently proposed generalized lattice models whose low-energy dynamics mimics a quantum field theory in (1+1)…
Engineering spectral properties of non-interacting lattice Hamiltonians
Ali G. Moghaddam, Dmitry Chernyavsky, Corentin Morice +2
We investigate the spectral properties of one-dimensional lattices with position-dependent hopping amplitudes and on-site potentials that are smooth bounded functions of position.…
Synthetic gravitational horizons in low-dimensional quantum matter
Corentin Morice, Ali G. Moghaddam, Dmitry Chernyavsky +2
We propose a class of lattice models realizable in a wide range of setups whose low-energy dynamics exactly reduces to Dirac fields subjected to (1+1)-dimensional gravitational bac…
Cosmological constant is a conserved charge
Dmitry Chernyavsky, Kamal Hajian
Cosmological constant can always be considered as the on-shell value of a top form in gravitational theories. The top form is field strength of a gauge field, and the theory enjoys…
