Stability of a Bose condensed mixture on a bubble trap

Stability and dynamical behavior of binary Bose-Einstein condensed mixtures trapped on the surface of a rigid spherical shell are investigated in the mean-field level, exploring the miscibility with and without vortex charges, considering repulsive and attractive interactions. In order to compute the critical points for the stability, we follow the Bogoliubov-de Gennes method for the analysis of perturbed solutions, with the constraint that initially the stationary states are in a complete miscible configuration. For the perturbed equal density mixture, of a homogeneous uniform gas and when hidden vorticity is verified, with the species having opposite azimuthal circulation, we consider small perturbation analysis for each unstable mode, providing a complete diagram with the intra- and inter-species interaction role on the stability of the miscible system. Finally, beyond small perturbation analysis, we explore the dynamics of some repulsive and attractive inter-species states by full numerical solutions of the time-dependent Gross-Pitaevskii equation.

Breakup of rotating asymmetric quartic-quadratic trapped condensates

The threshold conditions for a rotating pancake-like asymmetric quartic-quadratic confined condensate to break in two localized fragments, as well as to produce giant vortex at the center within the vortex-pattern distributions, are investigated within the Thomas-Fermi (TF) approximation and exact numerical solution of the corresponding Gross-Pitaevskii (GP) formalism. By comparing the TF predictions with exact GP solutions, in our investigation with two different quartic-quadratic trap geometries, of particular relevance is to observe that the TF approach is not only very useful to display the averaged density distribution, but also quite realistic in establishing the critical rotational conditions for the breakup occurrence and possible giant-vortex formation. It provides almost exact results to define the contour of the condensate distribution, even for high rotating system, after the system split in two (still confined) clouds. The applicability of the Feynman rule to the vortex distribution (full-numerical GP solutions) is also being confirmed for these non-homogeneous asymmetric trap configurations. This study is expected to be relevant for manipulating the rotation and trap parameters in addition to Feshbach resonance techniques. It can also be helpful to define initial conditions for any further studies on dynamical evolution of vortex pattern distributions.

Hashing algorithms, optimized mappings and massive parallelization of multiconfigurational methods for bosons

Numerical routines for Fock states indexing and to handle creation and annihilation operators in the spanned multiconfigurational space are developed. From the combinatorial problem of fitting particles in a truncated basis of individual particle states, which defines the spanned multiconfigurational space, a hashing function is provided based on a metric to sort all possible configurations, which refers to sets of occupation numbers required in the definition of Fock states. Despite the hashing function unambiguously relates the configuration to the coefficient index of the many-particle state expansion in the Fock basis, averages of creation and annihilation operators can be a highly demanding computation, especially when they are embedded in a time-dependent problem. Therefore, improvements in the conversion between configurations after the action of creation and annihilation operators are thoroughly inspected, highlighting the advantages and additional memory consumption. We also exploit massive parallel processors from graphics processor units with CUDA to improve a routine to act with the many-body Hamiltonian matrix on the spanned multiconfigurational space, which demonstrated quantitatively the scalability of the problem. The improvements shown here seem promising especially for calculations involving a large number of particles, in which case, the optimized CUDA code provided a drastic performance gain of roughly fifty times faster than a single core processor. The codes were consistently tested with an application to the Lieb-Liniger gas, evaluating the ground state and comparing with the analytical solution.
