Emergence of Resonating Valence-Bond Correlations in Stretched Graphene

Sam Azadi, A. Principi, T. D. Kühne +1

Electronic correlations in graphene are generally considered weak due to the large bandwidth of its electrons. Here we show that tensile expansion of the honeycomb lattice prov…

Valley-Controlled Viscosity of Two-Dimensional Dirac Fluids

Alexey Ermakov, Alessandro Principi

Motivated by recent experiments in weakly hybridized small-angle twisted bilayer graphene, we investigate how valley imbalance affects the viscosity of two-dimensional Dirac fluids…

Operator Space Transport and the Emergence of Boundary Time Crystals

Dominik Nemeth, Ahsan Nazir, Robert-Jan Slager +1

Boundary time crystals (BTCs) are prominent examples of continuous time crystals in collective spin systems governed by Lindbladian evolution. To date, their analysis has mostly re…

Anomalous thermoelectric Hall response of interacting 2D Dirac fermions

A. Daria Dumitriu-I., Feng Liu, Alexander E. Kazantsev +1

We study the anomalous thermoelectric Hall response of two-dimensional massive Dirac fermions to first order in the electron-electron interaction. We compute both the Nernst respon…

The role of polarization field terms in a model for a cavity quantum material

Arwen Lloyd, Adam Stokes, Alessandro Principi +1

Constructing models for cavity quantum materials requires a careful treatment of the light-matter coupling. In general, one must specify matrix elements constructed from the materi…

Topological Boundary Time Crystal Oscillations

Dominik Nemeth, Ahsan Nazir, Alessandro Principi +1

Boundary time crystals (BTCs) break time-translation symmetry and exhibit long-lived, robust oscillations insensitive to initial conditions. We show that collective spin BTCs can a…

Electronic-Entropy-Driven Solid-Solid Phase Transitions in Elemental Metals

S. Azadi, S. M. Vinko, A. Principi +2

We compute the thermodynamic phase diagram of seventeen elemental metals with hexagonal close-packed (hcp), face-centered cubic (fcc), and body-centered cubic (bcc) crystal structu…

Resonating valence bond pairing energy in graphene by quantum Monte Carlo

S. Azadi, A. Principi, T. D. Kühne +1

We determine the resonating-valence-bond (RVB) state in graphene using real-space quantum Monte Carlo with correlated variational wave functions. Variational and diffusion quantum…

A new scale anomaly in Dirac matter

Matteo Baggioli, Maxim N. Chernodub, Karl Landsteiner +2

The dynamics of Dirac semimetals is modeled at low energies by the massless Dirac Hamiltonian with the Fermi velocity replacing the velocity of light. The classical action is scale…

Quantum Monte Carlo study of the quasiparticle effective mass of the two-dimensional uniform electron liquid

S. Azadi, N. D. Drummond, A. Principi +2

The real-space variation quantum Monte Carlo (VMC) and diffusion quantum Monte Carlo (DMC) are used to calculate the quasiparticle energy bands and the quasiparticle effective mass…

Quantum Monte Carlo description of correlated electrons in two-dimensional FeSe

S. Azadi, A. Principi, R. V. Belosludov +2

An interesting question in physics is how the correlation energy of atoms evolves upon forming a solid. Here, we address this problem for a specific case of double-layer FeSe. We u…

Spin and Charge Transport Mediated by Fractionalized Excitations

Alexey Ermakov, Alessandro Principi

We study charge and spin transport in systems composed of itinerant electrons and localized magnetic moments of a Kitaev quantum spin liquid (QSL) phase. For example, $α-{\rm RuCl}…

Multiphase superconductivity in PdBi2

Lewis Powell, Wenjun Kuang, Gabriel Hawkins-Pottier +13

Unconventional superconductivity, where electron pairing does not involve electron-phonon interactions, is often attributed to magnetic correlations in a material. Well known examp…

Hot Electron-Driven Structural Expansion and Magnetic Collapse in Bilayer FeSe

Sam Azadi, A. Principi, M. S. Bahramy

Quantum phenomena emerging from the interaction of light and matter in low-dimensional systems hold great potential for future quantum technologies. Here, using first-principles ca…

Broken Lorentz symmetry and violation of the Wiedemann-Franz law in topological insulators

Feng Liu, A. Daria Dumitriu-I., Alessandro Principi

We study a two-dimensional topological insulator in the presence of a static non-uniform gravitational field, which mimics the variations in the temperature distribution. We derive…
