We predict the existence of interaction-driven edge states of bound two-photon
quasiparticles in a dimer periodic array of nonlinear optical cavities. The energy spectrum of …

Interaction-induced topological properties of two bosons in flat-band systems

G Pelegrí, AM Marques, V Ahufinger, J Mompart… - Physical Review …, 2020 - APS
In flat-band systems, destructive interference leads to the localization of noninteracting
particles and forbids their motion through the lattice. However, in the presence of …

Fast quantum transfer mediated by topological domain walls

J Zurita, CE Creffield, G Platero - Quantum, 2023 - quantum-journal.org
The duration of bidirectional transfer protocols in 1D topological models usually scales
exponentially with distance. In this work, we propose transfer protocols in multidomain SSH …

Two-doublon Bloch oscillations in the mass-imbalanced extended Fermi-Hubbard model

KL Zhang, XD Jiang, YY Li - Physical Review B, 2024 - APS
Interactions between particles normally induce the decay of the particles Bloch oscillations
