We use compressed sensing to demonstrate theoretically the reconstruction of sub-wavelength features from measured far-field, and provide experimental proof-of-concept. The methods can be applied non-optical microscopes, provided information is sparse.
We study a model of fermions on the square lattice at half-filling coupled to an Ising gauge theory, that was recently shown in Monte Carlo simulations exhibit $\mathbb{Z}_2$ topological order and massless Dirac fermion excitations. On tuning parameters, confining phase with broken symmetry (an antiferromagnet one choice Hamiltonian) also established, transition between these phases found be continuous, co-incident onset breaking confinement. While confinement pure theories is well...

We explore adiabatic pumping in the presence of a periodic drive, finding new phase which topologically quantized pumped quantity is energy rather than charge. The topological invariant given by winding number micromotion with respect to time within each cycle, momentum, and tuning parameter. show numerically that this pump highly robust against both disorder interactions, breaking down at large values either manner identical Thouless charge pump. Finally, we suggest experimental protocols...
Tensor network states, and in particular Projected Entangled Pair States (PEPS) have been a strong ansatz for the variational study of complicated quantum many-body systems, thanks to their built-in entanglement entropy area law. In this work, we use special kind PEPS - Gauged Gaussian Fermionic (GGFPEPS) find ground state $2+1d$ dimensional pure $\mathbb{Z}_2$ lattice gauge theories wide range coupling constants. We do so by combining methods with Monte-Carlo computations, allowing...
Conductivities and Hall coefficients of two-dimensional hard-core bosons (HCB) are calculated using the thermodynamic expansions Kubo formulas. At temperatures above superfluid transition, resistivity rises linearly is weakly dependent on boson filling. The zeroth-order coefficient diverges toward zero unit fillings, reverses its sign at half correction terms, which up to fourth (Krylov) orders, do not alter this behavior. high temperature thermal reversed relative electric coefficient. We...
We demonstrate theoretically and experimentally the reconstruction of images borne on incoherent light at a resolution greatly exceeding finest defined by NA system. Our method relies compressed sensing techniques, which assume that object is sparse in known basis, only that. The approach robust against noise can be used for reconstructing subwavelength through measurements taken optical far field.

We predict the existence of a novel Floquet topological insulator in three-dimensional two-band systems, Hopf insulator, which possesses two distinct invariants. One is $\mathbb{Z}$ invariant, linking number characterizing (non-driven) insulator. The second invariant an intrinsically $\mathbb{Z}_2$ and represents condensed matter realization topology underlying Witten anomaly particle physics. Both invariants arise from defects system's time-evolution, subject to process at different...
We determine the zero temeperature phase diagram of excitons in symmetric transition-metal dichalcogenide tri-layer heterosctructure WSe2/MoSe2/WSe2. First principle calculations reveal two distinct types interlayer excitonic states, a lower energy quadrupole and higher asymmetric dipole. While interaction between quadrupolar is always repulsive, anti-parallel dipolar attract at large distances. find quantum transitions repulsive lattice staggered (anti-parallel) phase, driven by competition...
Building on quantum Monte Carlo simulations, we study the phase diagram of a one-parameter Hamiltonian interpolating between trivial and topological Ising paramagnets in two dimensions, which are dual to toric code double semion. We discover an intermediate with stripe order spontaneously breaks protecting symmetry. Remarkably, find evidence that this intervening is gapless due incommensurability pattern it $U(1)$ gauge theory exhibiting Cantor deconfinement.
Using quantum Monte Carlo simulations, we map out the phase diagram of Hamiltonians interpolating between trivial and nontrivial bosonic symmetry-protected topological phases, protected by ${\mathbb{Z}}_{2}$ ${\mathbb{Z}}_{2}^{3}$ symmetries, in two dimensions. In all cases, find that phases are separated an intermediate which protecting symmetry is spontaneously broken. Depending on model, identify a variety magnetic orders triangular lattice, including ferromagnetism,...

Remarkably, our...
The synthesis of two-dimensional van der Waals magnets has paved the way for both technological applications and fundamental research on magnetism confined to ultra-small length scales. Edge magnetic moments in ferromagnets are expected be less magnetized than sample interior because reduced amount neighboring ferromagnetic spins at edge. We recently demonstrated that CrGeTe3 (CGT) flakes thinner 10 nm hard ferromagnets; i.e., they exhibit an open hysteresis loop. In contrast, thicker zero...
