Localization of matter waves in lattice systems with moving disorder
Chenyue Guo, Zi Cai
We study the localization phenomena in a one-dimensional lattice system with a uniformly moving disordered potential. At a low moving velocity, we find a sliding localized phase in…
An instanton-like excitation of a discrete time crystal
Xiaoqin Yang, Zi Cai
Spontaneous symmetry breaking and elementary excitation are two of the pillars of condensed matter physics that are closely related to each other. The symmetry and its spontaneous…
Symplectic ferromagnetism and phase transitions in multi-component fermionic systems
Zi Cai, Congjun Wu
In this paper, we study the itinerant ferromagnetic phase in multi-component fermionic systems with symplectic (Sp(4), or isomorphically SO(5)) symmetry. Two different microscopic…
Pattern formation and exotic order in driven-dissipative Bose-Hubbard systems
Zijian Wang, Carlos Navarrete-Benlloch, Zi Cai
Modern experimental platforms such as supercoducting-circuit arrays call for the exploration of bosonic tight-binding models in unconventional situations with no counterpart in rea…
Persistent oscillations versus thermalization in the quench dynamics of quantum gases with long-range interactions
Yikai Chen, Zi Cai
Searching for nonthermalized dynamics in interacting quantum systems is not only of fundamental theoretical interest in nonequilibrium quantum physics, but also of immense practica…
Dynamical universality classes towards an infinite temperature state
Jie Ren, Qiaoyi Li, Wei Li +2
Dynamical universality is the observation that the dynamical properties of different systems might exhibit universal behavior that are independent of the system details. In this pa…
