Dipolar Molecules in Optical Lattices

We study the extended Bose--Hubbard model describing an ultracold gas of dipolar molecules in an optical lattice, taking into account all on-site and nearest-neighbor interactions, including occupation-dependent tunneling and pair tunneling terms. Using exact diagonalization and the multiscale entanglement renormalization ansatz, we show that these terms can destroy insulating phases and lead to novel quantum phases. These considerable changes of the phase diagram have to be taken into account in upcoming experiments with dipolar molecules.

Bose-Hubbard model with occupation dependent parameters

We study the ground-state properties of ultracold bosons in an optical lattice in the regime of strong interactions. The system is described by a non-standard Bose-Hubbard model with both occupation-dependent tunneling and on-site interaction. We find that for sufficiently strong coupling the system features a phase-transition from a Mott insulator with one particle per site to a superfluid of spatially extended particle pairs living on top of the Mott background -- instead of the usual transition to a superfluid of single particles/holes. Increasing the interaction further, a superfluid of particle pairs localized on a single site (rather than being extended) on top of the Mott background appears. This happens at the same interaction strength where the Mott-insulator phase with 2 particles per site is destroyed completely by particle-hole fluctuations for arbitrarily small tunneling. In another regime, characterized by weak interaction, but high occupation numbers, we observe a dynamical instability in the superfluid excitation spectrum. The new ground state is a superfluid, forming a 2D slab, localized along one spatial direction that is spontaneously chosen.

Cooper Pairs with Broken Time-Reversal, Parity, and Spin-Rotational Symmetries in Singlet Type-II Superconductors

We show that singlet superconductivity in the Abrikosov vortex phase is absolutely unstable with respect to the appearance of a chiral triplet component of a superconducting order parameter. This chiral component, p_x + i p_y, breaks time-reversal, parity, and spin rotational symmetries of the internal order parameter, responsible for a relative motion of two electrons in the Cooper pair. We demonstrate that the symmetry breaking Pauli paramagnetic effects can be tuned by a magnetic field strength and direction and can be made of the order of unity in organic and high-temperature layered superconductors.

An Electrical Network Model of Plant Intelligence

A simple electrical network model, having logical gate capacities, is proposed here for computations in plant cells. It is compared and contrasted with the animal brain network structure and functions.

Study of a pair of coupled continuum equations modeling surface growth

In this communication we introduce a pair of coupled continuum equations to model overlayer growth with evaporation-accretion due to thermal or mechanical agitations of the substrate. We gain insight into the dynamics of growth via one-loop perturbative techniques. This allows us to analyze our numerical data. We conclude that there is a crossover behaviour from a roughening regime to a very long-time, large length scale smoothening regime.
