Abstract

Coupled-cluster theory is the method of choice for weakly correlated systems, but in strongly correlated systems where the mean-field reference is qualitatively poor, it can break down badly. These failures can be ameliorated by using symmetry-broken mean-field references. For systems that spontaneously break spin symmetry, we might favor an unrestricted reference. In systems that instead break number symmetry, we turn to Bogoliubov coupled cluster theory. In this work, we apply Bogoliubov coupled-cluster to Hamiltonians with an underlying su(2) algebra to study the pairing Hamiltonian and the spin XXZ and J1-J2 models by exploiting the correspondence between fermionic-pair operators and spin-1/2 operators. For the pairing problem, the reference is the usual Bardeen--Cooper--Schrieffer (BCS) quasiparticle vacuum, while for spin systems we use the analogous spin-BCS reference, which breaks Sz symmetry and provides a flexible starting point for strongly correlated regimes. Correlation is incorporated through a hierarchy of coupled-cluster approximations. Beyond energies, we compute the response density matrices for the evaluation of spin--spin correlation functions for the XXZ and J1-J2 Heisenberg models, and the pairing parameter and particle-number variance for the pairing Hamiltonian. We also derive the corresponding relaxed density matrices, including the effects of orbital relaxation. Benchmark calculations for the half-filled pairing Hamiltonian and spin models demonstrate that Bogoliubov coupled cluster provides a systematically improvable wave-function-based approach for su(2) Hamiltonians, including geometrically frustrated spin systems requiring complex and noncollinear BCS references.

Transport in the emergent Bose liquid: Bad metal, strange metal, and weak insulator, all in one system

Non-saturating high-temperature resistivity ("bad metal"), T-linear low-temperature resistivity ("strange metal"), and a crossover to activation-free growth of the resistivity in the low-temperature limit ("weak insulator") are among the most exotic behaviors widely observed in many strongly correlated materials for decades that defy the standard Fermi liquid description of solids. Here we investigate these puzzling behaviors by computing temperature-dependent optical conductivity of an emergent Bose liquid and find that it reproduces all the unexplained features of the experiments, including a featureless continuum and a well-known mid-infrared peak. Amazingly and with physically intuitive mechanisms, the corresponding doping- and temperature-dependent resistivity displays the bad metal and strange metal simultaneously and sometimes weak insulating behaviors as well. The unification of all these non-Fermi liquid behaviors in a single model suggests that a new quantum state of matter, namely the emergent Bose liquid, will guide the development of the next generation of solid state physics.

Correlation-driven quantum geometry effects in a Kondo system

Quantum geometry, including quantum metric and Berry curvature, which describes the topology of electronic states, can induce fascinating physical properties. Symmetry-dependent nonlinear transport has emerged as a sensitive probe of these quantum geometric properties. However, its interplay with strong electronic correlations has rarely been explored in bulk materials, particularly in a Kondo lattice system. Here, we uncover correlation-driven quantum geometry in centrosymmetric antiferromagnetic iron telluride (FeTe). We experimentally observe the quantum metric quadrupole-induced third-order nonlinear transport, whose angular dependence reflects magnetic structure in FeTe. The nonlinear transport signals follow Kondo lattice crossover and vanish at high temperatures. Our theory suggests that a Kondo lattice formed at low temperatures explains the emergence of quantum geometry, which is induced by the opening of a hybridization gap near the Fermi energy. This discovery establishes a paradigm where quantum geometry arises not from static symmetry breaking but from dynamic many-body effects and provides a zero-field probe for sensing antiferromagnetic order.

Anyon Quasilocalization in a Quasicrystalline Toric Code

An exactly solvable model of a quantum spin liquid on a quasicrystal, akin to Kitaev's honeycomb model, was introduced in Kim \textit{et al.}, \href{https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevB.110.214438}{\text{Phys. Rev. B} \textbf{110}, 214438 (2024)}. It was shown that in contrast to the translationally invariant models, such a spin liquid stabilizes a gapped ground state with a finite irrational flux density. In this work, we analyze the strong bond-anisotropic limit of the model and demonstrate that the aperiodic lattice geometry naturally generates a hierarchy of exponentially separated coupling constants in the resulting toric code Hamiltonian. Furthermore, a perturbative magnetic field leads to anomalous localization properties where an anyonic excitation sequentially delocalizes over subsets of sites forming equipotential contours in the quasicrystal. In addition, certain background flux configurations, together with the underlying geometry, give rise to strictly localized eigenstates that remain decoupled from the rest of the spectrum. Using numerical studies, we uncover the key mechanisms responsible for this unconventional localization behavior. Our study highlights that topologically ordered phases, in the presence of geometrical constraints can lead to highly anomalous localization properties of fractionalized charges.
