Barren plateaus in quantum tensor network optimization

Enrique Cervero Martín, Kirill Plekhanov, Michael Lubasch

We analyze the barren plateau phenomenon in the variational optimization of quantum circuits inspired by matrix product states (qMPS), tree tensor networks (qTTN), and the multisca…

Variational quantum amplitude estimation

Kirill Plekhanov, Matthias Rosenkranz, Mattia Fiorentini +1

We propose to perform amplitude estimation with the help of constant-depth quantum circuits that variationally approximate states during amplitude amplification. In the context of…

Interaction-stabilized topological magnon insulator in ferromagnets

Alexander Mook, Kirill Plekhanov, Jelena Klinovaja +1

Condensed matter systems admit topological collective excitations above a trivial ground state, an example being Chern insulators formed by Dirac bosons with a gap at finite energi…

Quadrupole spin polarization as signature of second-order topological superconductors

Kirill Plekhanov, Niclas Müller, Yanick Volpez +4

We study theoretically second-order topological superconductors characterized by the presence of pairs of zero-energy Majorana corner states. We uncover a quadrupole spin polarizat…

Magnetically-Confined Bound States in Rashba Systems

Flavio Ronetti, Kirill Plekhanov, Daniel Loss +1

A Rashba nanowire is subjected to a magnetic field that assumes opposite signs in two sections of the nanowire, and, thus, creates a magnetic domain wall. The direction of magnetic…

Hinge states in a system of coupled Rashba layers

Kirill Plekhanov, Flavio Ronetti, Daniel Loss +1

We consider a system of stacked tunnel-coupled two-dimensional electron- and hole-gas layers with Rashba spin-orbit interactions subjected to a staggered Zeeman field. The interpla…

Floquet Second-Order Topological Superconductor Driven via Ferromagnetic Resonance

Kirill Plekhanov, Manisha Thakurathi, Daniel Loss +1

We consider a Floquet triple-layer setup composed of a two-dimensional electron gas with spin-orbit interactions, proximity coupled to an s-wave superconductor and to a ferromagnet…

Topological proximity effects in a Haldane-graphene bilayer system

Peng Cheng, Philipp W. Klein, Kirill Plekhanov +4

We reveal a proximity effect between a topological band (Chern) insulator described by a Haldane model and spin-polarized Dirac particles of a graphene layer. Coupling weakly the t…
