Journal ArticleDOI

Entanglement in quantum critical phenomena.

TL;DR: The results establish a precise connection between concepts of quantum information, condensed matter physics, and quantum field theory, by showing that the behavior of critical entanglement in spin systems is analogous to that of entropy in conformal field theories.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ultrastrong coupling regimes of light-matter interaction

TL;DR: The ultrastrong coupling (USC) regime is established when the light-matter interaction energy is a comparable fraction of the bare frequencies of the uncoupled systems as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ground state entanglement in quantum spin chains

TL;DR: A microscopic calculation of ground state entanglement for the XY and Heisenberg models shows the emergence of universal scaling behavior at quantum phase transitions and a possible connection be-tween majorization and renormalization group irreversibility emerges from the numerical analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Topology by dissipation in atomic quantum wires

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that topological features and phenomena occur not only in closed systems, but also in open quantum systems with appropriately engineered dissipation, which can make quantum systems robust to a wide class of microscopic perturbations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Atomic Quantum Simulation of Dynamical Gauge Fields coupled to Fermionic Matter: From String Breaking to Evolution after a Quench

TL;DR: Using a Fermi-Bose mixture of ultracold atoms in an optical lattice, a quantum simulator is constructed for a U(1) gauge theory coupled to fermionic matter to investigate string breaking as well as the real-time evolution after a quench in gauge theories, which are inaccessible to classical simulation methods.
