Characterizing entanglement at finite temperature: how does a "classical" paramagnet become a quantum spin liquid?
Snigdh Sabharwal, Matthias Gohlke, Paul Skrzypczyk +1
Quantum spin liquids (QSL) are phases of matter which are distinguished not by the symmetries they break, but rather by the patterns of entanglement within them. Although these ent…

Can experimentally-accessible measures of entanglement distinguish quantum spin liquids from disorder-driven "random singlet" phases ?
Tokuro Shimokawa, Snigdh Sabharwal, Nic Shannon
At the theoretical level, quantum spin liquids are distinguished from other phases of matter by their entanglement properties. However, since the usual measure of entanglement, ent…

Tuning the Delicate Topology of Topological Phases
Snigdh Sabharwal
We present a unified framework to systematically embed complex knotted and linked structures, beyond the torus family, into diverse topological phases, including Hopf insulators, c…
