Driven-Dissipative Ground State Preparation: Mixing Time and Randomness

Paul Cazeaux, Marius Junge, Diyi Liu

Dissipative protocols offer a route to ground state preparation that does not require a large initial overlap with the ground state. To move beyond time independent Lindbladians an…

Linear-Scaling Tensor Train Sketching

Paul Cazeaux, Mi-Song Dupuy, Rodrigo Figueroa Justiniano

We introduce the TTStack sketch, a structured random projection tailored to the tensor train (TT) format that unifies existing TT-adapted sketching operators. By varying two intege…

Macroscopic approximation of tight-binding models near spectral degeneracies and validity for wave packet propagation

Guillaume Bal, Paul Cazeaux, Daniel Massatt +1

This paper concerns the derivation and validity of macroscopic descriptions of wave packets supported in the vicinity of degenerate points in the dispersion relation of tig…

Relaxation and domain wall structure of bilayer moire systems

Paul Cazeaux, Drake Clark, Rebecca Engelke +2

Moire patterns result from setting a 2D material such as graphene on another 2D material with a small twist angle or from the lattice mismatch of 2D heterostructures. We present a…

Mathematical models of topologically protected transport in twisted bilayer graphene

Guillaume Bal, Paul Cazeaux, Daniel Massatt +1

Twisted bilayer graphene gives rise to large moiré patterns that form a triangular network upon mechanical relaxation. If gating is included, each triangular region has gapped elec…

Randomized algorithms for rounding in the Tensor-Train format

Hussam Al Daas, Grey Ballard, Paul Cazeaux +5

The Tensor-Train (TT) format is a highly compact low-rank representation for high-dimensional tensors. TT is particularly useful when representing approximations to the solutions o…

Compression of Wannier functions into Gaussian-type orbitals

Bakhta Athmane, Cancès Eric, Cazeaux Paul +2

We propose a greedy algorithm for the compression of Wannier functions into Gaussian-polynomials orbitals. The so-obtained compressed Wannier functions can be stored in a very comp…

Quantum plasmons with optical-range frequencies in doped few-layer graphene

Sharmila N. Shirodkar, Marios Mattheakis, Paul Cazeaux +3

Although plasmon modes exist in doped graphene, the limited range of doping achieved by gating restricts the plasmon frequencies to a range that does not include visible and infrar…
