Disordered solid to Bose-glass transition in Bose-Hubbard model with disorder and long-range interactions

The introduction of disorder in Bose-Hubbard model gives rise to new glassy quantum phases, namely the Bose-glass (BG) and disordered solid (DS) phases. In this work, we present the rich phase diagram of interacting bosons in disordered two-dimensional optical lattice, modelled by the disordered Bose-Hubbard model. We systematically probe the effect of long-range interaction truncated to the nearest neighbors and next-nearest neighbors on the phase diagram. We investigate the zero-temperature ground-state quantum phases using the single-site Gutzwiller mean field (SGMF) theory. We also employ strong-coupling perturbative expansion to identify the nature of ground-state solid phases analytically. At sufficiently high disorder strength, we observe a quantum phase transition between the DS and BG phases. We have investigated this transition in greater detail using cluster Gutzwiller mean field theory to study the effect of inter-site correlations which is absent in the SGMF method. We have also studied this phase transition from the perspective of percolation theory.

Out-of-equilibrium dynamics of Bose-Bose mixtures in optical lattices

We examine the quench dynamics across quantum phase transitions from a Mott insulator (MI) to a superfluid (SF) phase in a two-component bosonic mixture in an optical lattice. We show that two-component Bose mixtures exhibit qualitatively different quantum dynamics than one-component Bose gas. Besides second-order MI-SF transitions, we also investigate quench dynamics across a first-order MI-SF transition. The Bose mixtures show the critical slowing down of dynamics near the critical transition point, as proposed by the Kibble-Zurek mechanism. For MI-SF transitions with homogeneous lattice-site distributions in the MI phase, the dynamical critical exponents extracted by the power-law scaling of the proposed quantities obtained via numerical simulations are in very close agreement with the mean-field predictions.

Spin-orbit coupling driven superfluid states in optical lattices at zero and finite temperatures

We investigate the quantum phase transitions of a two-dimensional Bose-Hubbard model in the presence of a Rashba spin-orbit coupling with and without thermal fluctuations. The interplay of single-particle hopping, strength of spin-orbit coupling, and interspin interaction leads to superfluid phases with distinct properties. With interspin interactions weaker than intraspin interactions, the spin-orbit coupling induces two finite-momentum superfluid phases. One of them is a phase-twisted superfluid that exists at low hopping strengths and reduces the domain of insulating phases. At comparatively higher hopping strengths, there is a transition from the phase-twisted to a finite momenta stripe superfluid. With interspin interactions stronger than the intraspin interactions, the system exhibits phase-twisted to ferromagnetic phase transition. At finite temperatures, the thermal fluctuations destroy the phase-twisted superfluidity and lead to a wide region of normal-fluid states. These findings can be observed in recent quantum gas experiments with spin-orbit coupling in optical lattices.

Staggered superfluid phases of dipolar bosons in two-dimensional square lattices

We study the quantum ground state of ultracold bosons in a two-dimensional square lattice. The bosons interact via the repulsive dipolar interactions and s-wave scattering. The dynamics is described by the extended Bose-Hubbard model including correlated hopping due to the dipolar interactions, the coefficients are found from the second quantized Hamiltonian using the Wannier expansion with realistic parameters. We determine the phase diagram using the Gutzwiller ansatz in the regime where the coefficients of the correlated hopping terms are negative and can interfere with the tunneling due to single-particle effects. We show that this interference gives rise to staggered superfluid and supersolid phases at vanishing kinetic energy, while we identify parameter regions at finite kinetic energy where the phases are incompressible. We compare the results with the phase diagram obtained with the cluster Gutzwiller approach and with the results found in one dimension using DMRG.

Triple excitation in relativistic coupled-cluster theory and properties of one-valence systems Rb and Sr$^+$

We examine the contributions from triple excitation cluster operators in the relativistic coupled-cluster theory in atoms and ions. For this, we propose a tensor representation of the triple cluster operator. Based on this representaion and using diagrammatic analysis, we derive the linearized coupled-cluster equations for single, double and triple excitation cluster operators. The contributions from the triple cluster operators to the hyper fine structure constants of single-valence systems Rb and Sr$^+$ are analysed using the perturbed triples.

Efficient $6j$ symbol evaluations for atomic calculations

We have developed an efficient tabulation scheme to evaluate $6j$ symbol for atomic calculations. The scheme is appropriate for coupled-cluster based calculations. In particular, for perturbed coupled-clusters calculations, which has another perturbation in addition to the residual Coulomb interaction. The scheme relies on the symmetry of the $6j$ symbol and the triangular conditions.

Core polarization in coupled-cluster theory induced by a parity and time-reversal violating interaction

The effects of parity and time reversal violating potential, in particular the tensor-pseudotensor electron nucleus interaction are studied. We establish that selected terms representing the interplay of these effects and the residual Coulomb interaction in the coupled-cluster method are equivalent to the coupled perturbed Hartree-Fock. We have shown that the {\em normal} CPHF diagrams have a one-one correspondance in the coupled-cluster theory, but the CPHF pseudo diagrams are present in a subtle way. We have studied the {\em pseudo} diagrams in great detail and have shown explicitly their origin in coupled-cluster theory. This is demonstrated by considering the case of the permanent electric dipole moment of atomic Hg and our results are compared with the results of an earlier calculation.

A new formulation of the relativistic many-body theory of electric dipole moments of closed shell atoms

The electric dipole moments of closed-shell atoms are sensitive to the parity and time-reversal violating phenomena in the nucleus. The nuclear Schiff moment is one such property, it arises from the parity and time reversal violating quark-quark interactions and the quark-chromo electric dipole moments. We calculate the electric dipole moment of atomic $^{199}{\rm Hg}$ arising from the nuclear Schiff moment using the relativistic coupled-cluster theory. This is the most accurate calculation of the quantity to date. Our calculations in combination with the experiment data provide important insights to the P and T violating coupling constants at the elementary particle level. In addition, a new limit on the tensor-pseudo tensor induced atomic EDM, calculated using the relativistic coupled-cluster theory is also presented.

Quantum spectrum as a time series : Fluctuation measures

The fluctuations in the quantum spectrum could be treated like a time series. In this framework, we explore the statistical self-similarity in the quantum spectrum using the detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA) and random matrix theory (RMT). We calculate the Hausdorff measure for the spectra of atoms and Gaussian ensembles and study their self-affine properties. We show that DFA is equivalent to $Δ_3$ statistics of RMT, unifying two different approaches.We exploit this connection to obtain theoretical estimates for the Hausdorff measure.

Decay of Spin-One Particle into Two Photons in Presence of Uniform External Magnetic Field

Yang's theorem states that an initial J=1 state cannot decay into two photons. Because of this result some reactions relating to elementary particles or atomic transitions can be ruled out. The theorem is not valid in the presence of background electric or magnetic fields. In this work we show that the decay of a J=1 particle into two photons is permitted by Bose symmetry and rotational invariance when the background of the decay process is not pure vacuum but contains an external classical magnetic/electric field. We also discuss constraints on these amplitudes from {\bf CP} invariance.

Chaos and localization in the wavefunctions of complex atoms NdI, PmI and SmI

Wavefunctions of complex lanthanide atoms NdI, PmI and SmI, obtained via multi-configuration Dirac-Fock method, are analyzed for density of states in terms of partial densities, strength functions ($F_k(E)$), number of principal components ($ξ_2(E)$) and occupancies ($\lan n_α\ran^E$) of single particle orbits using embedded Gaussian orthogonal ensemble of one plus two-body random matrix ensembles [EGOE(1+2)]. It is seen that density of states are in general multi-modal, $F_k(E)$'s exhibit variations as function of the basis states energy and $ξ_2(E)$'s show structures arising from localized states. The sources of these departures from EGOE(1+2) are investigated by examining the partial densities, correlations between $F_k(E)$, $ξ_2(E)$ and $\lan n_α\ran^E$ and also by studying the structure of the Hamiltonian matrices. These studies point out the operation of EGOE(1+2) but at the same time suggest that weak admixing between well separated configurations should be incorporated into EGOE(1+2) for more quantitative description of chaos and localization in NdI, PmI and SmI.
