A theory of Stimulated and Spontaneous Axion Scattering
M. Smith, Kartiek Agarwal, Ivar Martin
We present a theory for nonlinear, resonant excitation of dynamical axions by counter-propagating electromagnetic waves in materials that break both and …
Majorana braiding in superconductors with fixed total number of particles
Ivar Martin, Kartiek Agarwal
One-dimensional topological superconductors treated at the mean-field level host zero-energy edge Majorana modes, which encode topological degeneracy of their ground states. Geomet…
Role of Bath-Induced Many-Body Interactions in the Dissipative Phases of the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger Model
Brett Min, Kartiek Agarwal, Dvira Segal
The Su-Schrieffer-Heeger chain is a prototype example of a symmetry-protected topological insulator. Coupling it non-perturbatively to local thermal environments, either through th…
Nanoscale defects as probes of time reversal symmetry breaking
Suman Jyoti De, Tami Pereg-Barnea, Kartiek Agarwal
Nanoscale defects such as Nitrogen Vacancy (NV) centers can serve as sensitive and non-invasive probes of electromagnetic fields and fluctuations from materials, which in turn can…
Spatiotemporal Quenches for Efficient Critical Ground State Preparation in Two-Dimensional Quantum Systems
Simon Bernier, Kartiek Agarwal
Quantum simulators have the potential to shed light on the study of quantum many-body systems and materials, offering unique insights into various quantum phenomena. While adiabati…
