PT-symmetry breaking phase transitions in an LMG dimer

Simon Kothe, Christopher Oliver, Peter Kirton

The open Lipkin-Meshkov-Glick (LMG) model provides a prototype of a dissipative phase transition which can be analyzed using mean-field theory. By combining the physics of this mod…

Topological Chiral Edge States in a Synthetic Dimension of Atomic Trap States

David G. Reid, Christopher Oliver, Patrick Regan +6

A key hallmark of quantum Hall physics is the existence of topological chiral states at the system boundary. Signatures of these edge states have been experimentally observed in co…

Photonic lattices of coaxial cables: flat bands and artificial magnetic fields

Christopher Oliver, Denis Nabari, Hannah M. Price +2

We propose the use of networks of standard, commercially-available coaxial cables as a platform to realize photonic lattice models. As a specific example, we consider a brick wall…

Artificial gauge fields in the t-z mapping for optical pulses: spatio-temporal wavepacket control and quantum Hall physics

Christopher Oliver, Sebabrata Mukherjee, Mikael C. Rechtsman +2

We extend the mapping formalism of time-dependent paraxial optics by identifying configurations displaying a synthetic magnetic vector potential, leading to a non-trivial ban…

Bloch Oscillations Along a Synthetic Dimension of Atomic Trap States

Christopher Oliver, Aaron Smith, Thomas Easton +5

Synthetic dimensions provide a powerful approach for simulating condensed matter physics in cold atoms and photonics, whereby a set of discrete degrees of freedom are coupled toget…
