Floquet dynamical quantum phase transitions under synchronized periodic driving

R. Jafari, Alireza Akbari, Utkarsh Mishra +1

We study a generic class of fermionic two-band models under synchronized periodic driving, i.e., with the different terms in a Hamiltonian subject to periodic drives with the same…

Achieving spin-squeezed states by quench dynamics in a quantum chain

Hadi Cheraghi, Saeed Mahdavifar, Henrik Johannesson

We study the time evolution of spin squeezing in the one-dimensional spin-1/2 XY model subject to a sudden quantum quench of a transverse magnetic field. The initial state is selec…

Topology of critical chiral phases: multiband insulators and superconductors

Oleksandr Balabanov, Daniel Erkensten, Henrik Johannesson

Recent works have proved the existence of symmetry-protected edge states in certain one-dimensional topological band insulators and superconductors at the gap-closing points which…

Multicriticality in a one-dimensional topological band insulator

Mariana Malard, David Brandao, Paulo Eduardo de Brito +1

A central tenet in the theory of quantum phase transitions (QPTs) is that a nonanalyticity in the ground-state energy in the thermodynamic limit implies a QPT. Here we report on a…

Transport signatures of symmetry protection in 1D Floquet topological insulators

Oleksandr Balabanov, Henrik Johannesson

Time-periodic external drives have emerged as a powerful tool to artificially create topological phases of matter. Prime examples are Floquet topological insulators (FTIs), where a…

Quench dynamics and zero-energy modes: the case of the Creutz model

R. Jafari, Henrik Johannesson, A. Langari +1

In most lattice models, the closing of a band gap typically occurs at high-symmetry points in the Brillouin zone. Differently, in the Creutz model describing a system of spinle…
