A quantum monomer-dimer model on Penrose tilings

Jeet Shah, Gautam Nambiar, Alexey V. Gorshkov +1

We define a quantum monomer-dimer model in the space of maximal dimer coverings of quasicrystalline Penrose tilings. Since Penrose tilings do not admit perfect dimer coverings, as…

Quantum spin ice in three-dimensional Rydberg atom arrays

Jeet Shah, Gautam Nambiar, Alexey V. Gorshkov +1

Quantum spin liquids are exotic phases of matter whose low-energy physics is described as the deconfined phase of an emergent gauge theory. With recent theory proposals and an expe…

Quantized charge polarization as a many-body invariant in (2+1)D crystalline topological states and Hofstadter butterflies

Yuxuan Zhang, Naren Manjunath, Gautam Nambiar +1

We show how to define a quantized many-body charge polarization for (2+1)D topological phases of matter, even in the presence of non-zero Chern number and magne…

Monopole Josephson Effects in a Dirac Spin Liquid

Gautam Nambiar, Daniel Bulmash, Victor Galitski

Dirac Spin liquids (DSLs) are gapless featureless states, yet interesting by virtue of the effective field theory describing them -- (2+1)-dimensional quantum electrodynamics (QED$…

Fractional disclination charge and discrete shift in the Hofstadter butterfly

Yuxuan Zhang, Naren Manjunath, Gautam Nambiar +1

In the presence of crystalline symmetries, topological phases of matter acquire a host of invariants leading to non-trivial quantized responses. Here we study a particular invarian…
