Competitive algorithms for calculating the ground state properties of Bose-Fermi mixtures

In this work we define, analyze, and compare different numerical schemes that can be used to study the ground state properties of Bose-Fermi systems, such as mixtures of different atomic species under external forces or self-bound quantum droplets. The bosonic atoms are assumed to be condensed and are described by the generalized Gross-Pitaevskii equation. The fermionic atoms, on the other hand, are treated individually, and each atom is associated with a wave function whose evolution follows the Hartree-Fock equation. We solve such a formulated set of equations using a variety of methods, including those based on adiabatic switching of interactions and the imaginary time propagation technique combined with the Gram-Schmidt orthonormalization or the diagonalization of the Hamiltonian matrix. We show how different algorithms compete at the numerical level by studying the mixture in the range of parameters covering the formation of self-bound quantum Bose-Fermi droplets.

Mechanism for sound dissipation in a two-dimensional degenerate Fermi gas

We numerically study the transport properties of a two-dimensional Fermi gas in a weakly and strongly interacting regimes, in the range of temperatures close to the transition to a superfluid phase. For that we excite sound waves in a fermionic mixture by using the phase imprinting technique, follow their evolution, and finally determine both their speed and attenuation. Our formalism incorporates thermal fluctuations via the ground canonical ensemble description and with the help of Metropolis algoritm. From numerical simulations we extract temperature dependence of the sound velocity and diffusivity as well as the dependence on the interaction strength. We emphasize the role of virtual vortex-antivortex pairs creation in the process of sound dissipation.

Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless phase induced by dissipating quasisolitons

We theoretically study the sound propagation in a two-dimensional weakly interacting uniform Bose gas. Using the classical fields approximation we analyze in detail the properties of density waves generated both in a weak and strong perturbation regimes. While in the former case density excitations can be described in terms of hydrodynamic or collisionless sound, the strong disturbance of the system results in a qualitatively different response. We identify observed structures as quasisolitons and uncover their internal complexity for strong perturbation case. For this regime quasisolitons break into vortex pairs as time progresses, eventually reaching an equilibrium state. We find this state, characterized by only fluctuating in time averaged number of pairs of opposite charge vortices and by appearance of a quasi-long-range order, as the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) phase.

Signatures of a universal jump in the superfluid density in two-dimensional Bose gas with finite number of particles

We study, within the classical fields approximation, a two-dimensional weakly interacting uniform Bose gas of a finite number of atoms. By using a grand canonical ensemble formalism we show that such systems exhibit, in addition to the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) and thermal phases, the intermediate region. This region is characterized by a decay of current-current correlations at low momenta and by an algebraic decay of the first-order correlations with an exponent being larger than the critical value predicted by the BKT theory. The density of the superfluid fraction at the temperature which separates the BKT phase from the intermediate region approaches the one found by Nelson and Kosterlitz for two-dimensional superfluids while the number of atoms is increased.

Unified way for computing dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensates and degenerate Fermi gases

In this work we present a very simple and efficient numerical scheme which can be applied to study the dynamics of bosonic systems like, for instance, spinor Bose-Einstein condensates with nonlocal interactions but equally well works for Fermi gases. The method we use is a modification of well known Split Operator Method (SOM). We carefully examine this algorithm in the case of $F=1$ spinor Bose-Einstein condensate without and with dipolar interactions and for strongly interacting two-component Fermi gas. Our extension of the SOM method has many advantages: it is fast, stable, and keeps constant all the physical constraints (constants of motion) at high level.

Thermal solitons as revealed by static structure factor

We study, within a framework of the classical fields approximation, the static structure factor of a weakly interacting Bose gas at thermal equilibrium. As in a recent experiment (R. Schley et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 111, 055301 (2013)), we find that the thermal distribution of phonons in a three-dimensional Bose gas follows the Planck distribution. On the other hand we find a disagreement between the Planck and phonon (calculated just like for the bulk gas) distributions in the case of elongated quasi-one-dimensional systems. We attribute this discrepancy to the existence of spontaneous dark solitons (i.e., thermal solitons as reported in T. Karpiuk et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 109, 205302 (2012)) in an elongated Bose gas at thermal equilibrium.

Density fluctuations in a quasi-one-dimensional Bose gas as observed in free expansion

We study, within a framework of the classical fields approximation, the density correlations of a weakly interacting expanding Bose gas for the whole range of temperatures across the Bose-Einstein condensation threshold. We focus on elongated quasi-one-dimensional systems where there is a huge discrepancy between the existing theory and experimental results (A. Perrin et al., Nature Phys. 8, 195 (2012)). We find that the density correlation function is not reduced for temperatures below the critical one as it is predicted for the ideal gas or for a weakly interacting system within the Bogoliubov approximation. This behavior of the density correlations agrees with the above mentioned experiment with the elongated system. Although the system was much larger then studied here we believe that the behavior of the density correlation function found there is quite generic. Our theoretical studies indicate also large density fluctuations in the trap in the quasicondensate regime where only phase fluctuations were expected. We argue that the enhanced density fluctuations can originate in the presence of interactions in the system, or more precisely in the existence of spontaneous dark solitons in the elongated gas at thermal equilibrium.

Half-integer Mott-insulator phases in the imbalanced honeycomb lattice

Using mean-field theory, we investigate the ground state properties of ultracold bosons loaded in a honeycomb lattice with on-site repulsive interactions and imbalanced nearest-neighbor hopping amplitudes. Taking into account correlations between strongly coupled neighboring sites through an improved Gutzwiller ansatz, we predict the existence of half-integer Mott-insulator phases, i.e. states with half-integer filling and vanishing compressibility. These insulating phases result from the interplay between quantum correlations and the topology of the honeycomb lattice, and could be easily addressed experimentally as they have clear signatures in momentum space.

How to observe dipolar effects in spinor Bose-Einstein condensates

We study a spinor condensate of alkali atoms in F = 1 hyperfine state under the presence of an oscillating magnetic field. We find resonances which, due to the dipolar interactions, magnify the transfer of atoms from mF = 1 to mF = 0 Zeeman sublevel. These resonances occur at magnetic fields of the order of milligaus and are broad enough to enable observation of the famous Einstein-de Haas effect, which is solely a dipolar effect, in systems of cold alkali gases.

Free expansion of a Bose-Einstein condensate at the presence of a thermal cloud

We investigate numerically the free-fall expansion of a $^{87}$Rb atoms condensate at nonzero temperatures. The classical field approximation is used to separate the condensate and the thermal cloud during the expansion. We calculate the radial and axial widths of the expanding condensate and find clear evidence that the thermal component changes the dynamics of the condensate. Our results are confronted against the experimental data.

Resonant Einstein-de Haas effect in a rubidium condensate

We numerically investigate a condensate of $^{87}$Rb atoms in an F=1 hyperfine state confined in an optical dipole trap. Assuming the magnetic moments of all atoms are initially aligned along the magnetic field we observe, after the field's direction is reversed, a transfer of atoms to other Zeeman states. Such transfer is allowed by the dipolar interaction which couples the spin and the orbital degrees of freedom. Therefore, the atoms in $m_F=0,-1$ states acquire an orbital angular momentum and start to circulate around the center of the trap. This is a realization of the Einstein-de Haas effect in systems of cold gases. We find resonances which amplify this phenomenon making it observable even in very weak dipolar systems. The resonances occur when the Zeeman energy on transfer of atoms to $m_F=0$ state is fully converted to the rotational kinetic energy.

Coherence properties of spinor condensates at finite temperatures

We consider a spinor condensate of 87Rb atoms in its F=1 hyperfine state at finite temperatures. Putting initially all atoms in m_F=0 component we find that the system evolves into the state of thermal equilibrium. This state is approached in a step-like process and when established it manifests itself in distinguishable ways. The atoms in states m_F=+1 and m_F=-1 start to rotate in opposite directions breaking the chiral symmetry and showing highly regular spin textures. Also the coherence properties of the system changes dramatically. Depending on the strength of spin-changing collisions the system first enters the stage where the m_F=+1 and m_F=-1 spinor condensate components periodically loose and recover their mutual coherence whereas their thermal counterparts get completely dephased. For stronger spin changing collisions the system enters the regime where also the strong coherence between other components is built up.

Thermally induced instability of a doubly quantized vortex in a Bose-Einstein condensate

We study the instability of a doubly quantized vortex topologically imprinted on $^{23}$Na condensate, as reported in recent experiment [Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{93}, 160406 (2004)]. We have performed numerical simulations using three-dimensional Gross-Pitaevskii equation with classical thermal noise. Splitting of a doubly quantized vortex turns out to be a process that is very sensitive to the presence of thermal atoms. We observe that even ve ry small thermal fluctuations, corresponding to 10 to 15% of thermal atoms, ca use the decay of doubly quantized vortex into two singly quantized vortices in tens of milliseconds. As in the experiment, the lifetime of doubly quantized vortex i s a monotonic function of the interaction strength.

Formation of soliton trains in Bose-Einstein condensates by temporal Talbot effect

We study the recent observation of formation of matter-wave soliton trains in Bose-Einstein condensates. We emphasize the role of the box-like confinement of the Bose-Einstein condensate and find that there exist time intervals for the opening the box that support the generation of real solitons. When the box-like potential is switched off outside the existing time windows, the number of peaks in a train changes resembling missing solitons observed in the experiment. Our findings indicate that a new way of generating soliton trains in condensates through the temporal, matter-wave Talbot effect is possible.
