Tunable transport with broken space–time symmetries

S Denisov, S Flach, P Hänggi - Physics Reports, 2014 - Elsevier
Transport properties of particles and waves in spatially periodic structures that are driven by
external time-dependent forces manifestly depend on the space–time symmetries of the …

Realistic Floquet semimetal with exotic topological linkages between arbitrarily many nodal loops

L Li, CH Lee, J Gong - Physical review letters, 2018 - APS
Valence and conduction bands in nodal loop semimetals (NLSMs) touch along closed loops
in momentum space. If such loops can proliferate and link intricately, NLSMs become exotic …

Quantum computation via Floquet topological edge modes

RW Bomantara, J Gong - Physical Review B, 2018 - APS
Floquet topological matter has emerged as one exciting platform to explore rich physics and
game-changing applications of topological phases. As one remarkable and recently …

Spectral and transport properties of time-periodic -symmetric tight-binding lattices

G Della Valle, S Longhi - Physical Review A—Atomic, Molecular, and Optical …, 2013 - APS
We investigate the spectral properties and dynamical features of a time-periodic PT-
symmetric Hamiltonian on a one-dimensional tight-binding lattice. It is shown that a high …

Effective three-body interactions via photon-assisted tunneling in an optical lattice

AJ Daley, J Simon - Physical Review A, 2014 - APS
We present a simple, experimentally realizable method to make coherent three-body
interactions dominate the physics of an ultracold lattice gas. Our scheme employs either …

Theoretical analysis of super–Bloch oscillations

K Kudo, TS Monteiro - Physical Review A—Atomic, Molecular, and Optical …, 2011 - APS
Several recent studies have investigated the dynamics of cold atoms in optical lattices
subject to ac forcing; the theoretically predicted renormalization of the tunneling amplitudes …

Artificial staggered magnetic field for ultracold atoms in optical lattices

LK Lim, A Hemmerich, CM Smith - Physical Review A—Atomic, Molecular, and …, 2010 - APS
A time-dependent optical lattice with staggered particle current in the tight-binding regime
was considered that can be described by a time-independent effective lattice model with an …

Generating soliton trains through Floquet engineering

P Blanco-Mas, CE Creffield - Physical Review A, 2023 - APS
We study a gas of interacting ultracold bosons held in a parabolic trap in the presence of an
optical lattice potential. Treating the system as a discretized Gross-Pitaevskii model, we …

Directed transport in driven optical lattices by gauge generation

CE Creffield, F Sols - Physical Review A—Atomic, Molecular, and Optical …, 2011 - APS
We examine the dynamics of ultracold atoms held in optical-lattice potentials. By controlling
the switching of a periodic driving potential we show how a phase-induced renormalization …

Expansion of matter waves in static and driven periodic potentials

CE Creffield, F Sols, D Ciampini, O Morsch… - Physical Review A …, 2010 - APS
We study the nonequilibrium dynamics of cold atoms held in an optical lattice subjected to a
periodic driving potential. The expansion of an initially confined atom cloud occurs in two …
