Probing Defects with Quantum Simulator Snapshots
Abhijat Sarma, Nayan Myerson-Jain, Yue Liu +4
Snapshots, i.e. projective measurements of local degrees of freedom, are the most standard data taken in experiments on quantum simulators. Snapshots are usually used to probe loca…
Effective Conformal Field Theory generated from Pure and Dephased Chern insulator
Abhijat Sarma, Yimu Bao, Nayan Myerson-Jain +2
We demonstrate that the fidelity between two states with different Chern numbers serves as a generating theory for an effective conformal fi…
Superconductor-Insulator Transition in the TMD moiré systems and the Deconfined Quantum Critical Point
Nayan Myerson-Jain, Cenke Xu
We propose that the recently observed superconductor-insulator transition (SIT) in the twisted bilayer transition metal dichalcogenides moiré system at hole filling may be…
Pristine and Pseudo-gapped Boundaries of the Deconfined Quantum Critical Points
Nayan Myerson-Jain, Xiao-Chuan Wu, Cenke Xu
Bulk topology and criticality can both lead to nontrivial boundary effects. Topological orders are often characterized by their robust edge states, while bulk critical points can h…
Higher-form Symmetries under Weak Measurement
Kaixiang Su, Nayan Myerson-Jain, Chong Wang +2
We aim to address the following question: if we start with a quantum state with a spontaneously broken higher-form symmetry, what is the fate of the system under weak local quantum…
