The Mott insulator LaVO$_3$ is known to become metallic if La is replaced by small concentrations of Ca. Since surface quasi-particle spectra of various perovskites are more strongly correlated than their bulk spectra, the coexistence of a metallic bulk and an insulating surface layer might be feasible.
We study ground-state properties of interacting two-component boson gases in a one-dimensional harmonic trap by using the exact numerical diagonalization method.

The abelian hierarchy of quantum Hall states accounts for most of the states in the lowest Landau level, and there is evidence of a similar hierarchy of non-abelian states emanating from the {\nu} = 5/2 Moore-Read state in the second Landau level. Extending a recently developed formalism for hierarchical quasihole con...

The dynamical spin structure factor has important spectral weight predominantly along the boundary of the extended Br...
We consider symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phases in 2D protected by linear subsystem symmetries, i.e. those that act along rigid lines. There is a distinction between a "strong" subsystem SPT phase, and a "weak" one, which is composed of decoupled 1D SPTs with global symmetries.
A duality transformation in quantum field theory is usually established first through partition functions. It is always important to explore the dual relations between various correlation functions in the transformation.
Strong interactions can give rise to new fermionic symmetry protected topological phases which have no analogs in free fermion systems.

This ch...
We investigate the finite-temperature screening behavior of three-dimensional U(1) spin liquid phases with fracton excitations. Several features are shared with the conventional U(1) spin liquid.
Superconductivity found in doped NdNiO$_2$ is puzzling as two local symmetries of doped NiO$_2$ layers compete, with presumably far-reaching implications for the involved mechanism: a cuprate-like regime with Zhang-Rice singlets {\cblue is replaced by local triplet states at realistic values of charge-transfer energy, ...
