Toroidal Confinement and Beyond: Vorticity-Defined Morphologies of Dipolar $^{164}$Dy Quantum Droplets

We investigate the formation, stability, and dynamics of 3D ring-shaped and multipole vortical quantum droplets (QDs) in non-rotating dipolar Bose-Einstein condensates held in a toroidal trapping potential. The QD dynamics are investigated in the framework of the extended Gross-Pitaevskii equation, which includes long-range dipole-dipole interactions (DDI) and the beyond-mean-field Lee-Huang-Yang (LHY) term, revealing the emergence of self-bound states. Stable stationary solutions for multipole QDs with different values of the topological charge (vorticity $S$) are shaped as necklace-like modes, with the number of \textquotedblleft beads" (multipole's order) $n=2S$, up to $S=6$. The stability area of the multipoles shrinks with the increase of $S$. For higher values of $S$ the centrifugal effect associated with the phase winding destabilizes the annular density and drives the formation of fragmented multipole droplet states. The dependence of the chemical potential, total energy and peak density on the norm (number of particles) and $S$ is produced. These findings uncover the stabilizing effect of the LHY correction and DDI anisotropy in maintaining complex QD states in the non-rotating configurations.

Synergistic Effects of Spin-Orbit Coupling and Intercomponent Interactions in Two-Component (2+1)D Photonic Fields

The study investigates the formation, stability and dynamic advancement of two-dimensional vortex quantum droplets within binary Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs), shaped by the interplay of photonic spin-orbit coupling (SOC) and quantum fluctuation effects. SOC leads to significant droplet stretching, resulting in vortex clusters forming in each component. The competition between photonic SOC and Lee-Huang-Yang (LHY) interactions introduces vortices into the condensate, described by the numerically solved Gross-Pitaevskii equation (GPE). The results show that droplets like structures arise at low SOC strengths and interaction parameters. The transition to vortex takes place as the SOC increases. Enhanced interactions give rise to the emergence of quantum droplets as the vortices dissipate, demonstrating fascinating dynamics. These findings enhance understanding of the physical properties of photonic SOC coupled binary BECs in 2D with LHY correction, impacting cold-atom physics and condensed matter research. The study can also be expanded to explore quantum droplets with a small atom count, which is advantageous for experimental applications.

Vortex droplets and lattice patterns in two-dimensional traps: A photonic spin-orbit-coupling perspective

In the context of the mean-field exciton-polariton (EP) theory with balanced loss and pump, we investigate the formation of lattice structures built of individual vortex-antivortex (VAV) bound states under the action of the two-dimensional harmonic-oscillator (HO) potential trap and effective spin-orbit coupling (SOC), produced by the TE-TM splitting in the polariton system. The number of VAV elements (pixels) building the structures grow with the increase of self- and cross-interaction coefficients. Depending upon their values and the trapping frequency, stable ring-shaped, circular, square-shaped, rectangular, pentagonal, hexagonal, and triangular patterns are produced, with the central site left vacant or occupied in the lattice patterns of different types. The results suggest the experimental creation of the new patterns and their possible use for the design of integrated circuits in EP setups, controlled by the strengths of the TE-TM splitting, nonlinearity, and HO trap.
