Integer Quantum Hall Effect: random network models, induction of gravity and S-matrix approach

The widely accepted Chalker-Coddington model of IQHE has the problem of inconsistency between numerical and experimental values of localization length exponent. Recently it was shown that taking into account the random geometrical structure of the scattering network itself alongside U(1) phase disorder has the capability of fixing the discrepancy. The geometrical randomness is introduced through specific parametrized modification of the regular network model. A correspondence between the created structure to the real-life potential based scattering network structure is established through curvature distribution analysis, a connection between random network parameters and experimentally measurable compensation parameter is predicted. The issue of reliability of numerical calculations is addressed by introducing a more robust and faster technique, namely the S-matrix approach. New calculations verify the previously known results and provide better precision.

Proximity-induced gapless superconductivity in two-dimensional Rashba semiconductor in magnetic field

Two-dimensional semiconductor-superconductor heterostructures form the foundation of numerous nanoscale physical systems. However, measuring the properties of such heterostructures, and characterizing the semiconductor in-situ is challenging. A recent experimental study [arXiv:2107.03695] was able to probe the semiconductor within the heterostructure using microwave measurements of the superfluid density. This work revealed a rapid depletion of superfluid density in semiconductor, caused by the in-plane magnetic field which in presence of spin-orbit coupling creates so-called Bogoliubov Fermi surfaces. The experimental work used a simplified theoretical model that neglected the presence of non-magnetic disorder in the semiconductor, hence describing the data only qualitatively. Motivated by experiments, we introduce a theoretical model describing a disordered semiconductor with strong spin-orbit coupling that is proximitized by a superconductor. Our model provides specific predictions for the density of states and superfluid density. Presence of disorder leads to the emergence of a gapless superconducting phase, that may be viewed as a manifestation of Bogoliubov Fermi surface. When applied to real experimental data, our model showcases excellent quantitative agreement, enabling the extraction of material parameters such as mean free path and mobility, and estimating g-tensor after taking into account the orbital contribution of magnetic field. Our model can be used to probe in-situ parameters of other superconductor-semiconductor heterostructures and can be further extended to give access to transport properties.

Superconducting diodes out of equilibrium

The superconducting diode effects refers to supercurrent flow only along one direction, but not in the opposite one. We review this phenomenon and describe our recent theory [1,2] of voltage-biased Josephson diodes in junctions of superconductors with finite-momentum Cooper pairing. For a short weak link, this problem can be solved by scattering theory, taking into account multiple Andreev reflections to all orders. We find rich subharmonic structure with highly efficient rectification at subgap voltages and large junction transparency.

Local density of states fluctuations in a two-dimensional superconductor as a probe of quantum diffusion

The interplay of superconductivity and disorder generates a wealth of complex phenomena. In particular, the peculiar structure of diffusive electronic wave functions is predicted to increase the superconducting critical temperature in some range of disorder. In this work, we use an epitaxial monolayer of lead showing a simple band structure and homogeneous structural disorder as a model system of a two-dimensional superconductor in the weak-antilocalization regime. Then, we perform an extensive study of the emergent fluctuations of the local density of states (LDOS) and spectral energy gap in this material and compare them with both analytical results and the numerical solution of the attractive Hubbard model. We show that mesoscopic LDOS fluctuations allow us to probe locally both the elastic and inelastic scattering rates, which are notoriously difficult to measure in transport measurements.

A talk is based on M. Lizee, M. Stosiek, C. Brun, I.S. Burmistrov, T. Cren, Phys. Rev. B 107, 174508 (2023).

Theory of free fermions under random projective measurements

We develop an analytical approach to the study of one-dimensional free fermions subject to random projective measurements of local site occupation numbers, based on the Keldysh path-integral formalism and replica trick. In the limit of rare measurements, \gamma / J << 1 (where \gamma is measurement rate per site and J is hopping constant in the tight-binding model), we derive a non-linear sigma model (NLSM) as an effective field theory of the problem. Its replica-symmetric sector is described by a U(2) / U(1) x U(1) ~ S2 sigma model with diffusive behavior, and the replica-asymmetric sector is a two-dimensional NLSM defined on SU(R) manifold with the replica limit R -> 1. On the Gaussian level, valid in the limit \gamma / J -> 0, this model predicts a logarithmic behavior for the second cumulant of number of particles in a subsystem and for the entanglement entropy. However, the one-loop renormalization group analysis allows us to demonstrate that this logarithmic growth saturates at a finite value ~(J / \gamma)^2 even for rare measurements, which corresponds to the area-law phase. This implies the absence of a measurement-induced entanglement phase transition for free fermions. The crossover between logarithmic growth and saturation, however, happens at exponentially large scale, ln(l_corr) ~ J / \gamma. This makes this crossover very sharp as a function of the measurement frequency \gamma/J, which can be easily confused with a transition from the logarithmic to area law in finite-size numerical calculations. We have performed a careful numerical analysis, which supports our analytical predictions.

The internal clock of many-body (de-)localization

After a decade of many claims to the opposite, there now is a growing consensus that generic disordered quantum wires, e.g. the XXZ-Heisenberg chain, do not exhibit many-body localization (MBL) - at least not in a strict sense within a reasonable window of disorder values W. Specifically, computational studies of short wires exhibit an extremely slow but unmistakable flow of physical observables with increasing time and system size ("creep") that is consistently directed away from (strict) localization. Our work sheds fresh light on delocalization physics: Strong sample-to-sample fluctuations indicate the absence of a generic time scale, i.e. of a naive "clock rate"; however, the concept of an "internal clock" survives, at least in an ensemble sense. Specifically, we investigate the relaxation of the imbalance I(t) and its temporal fluctuations F(t), the entanglement and Renyi entropies, Se(t) and S2(t), in a 1D system of interacting disordered fermions. We observe that adopting Se(t), S2(t) as a measure for the internal time per sample reduces the sample-to-sample fluctuations but does not eliminate them. However, a (nearly) perfect collapse of the average and for different W is obtained when plotted against or , indicating that the average entropy appropriately models the ensemble-averaged internal clock. We take the tendency for faster-than-logarithmic growth of together with smooth dependency on W of all our observables within the entire simulation window as support for the cross-over scenario, discouraging an MBL transition within the traditional parametric window of computational studies.

Evidence of the disorder-independent electron-phonon scattering time in thin NbN films

We report on experimental study of the effect of disorder on electronic parameters and inelastic scattering mechanisms in ultrathin superconducting NbN films, which are commonly used in single-photon detectors. An increase in disorder in the studied 2.5 nm thick NbN films characterized by Ioffe-Regel parameter from 6.3 to 1.6 is accompanied by a decrease in the critical temperature Tc from 11.5 K to 3.4 K. By measuring magnetoconductance in the range from Tc to ~3Tc, we extract the inelastic scattering rates of electrons, including electron-phonon (e-ph) scattering rates tau_{e-ph}^{-1}. We observe that au_{e-ph}^{-1} and their temperature dependencies are insensitive to disorder that is not described by the existing models of the e-ph scattering in disordered metals and can be due to the presence of weakly disordered metal grains. As the temperature decreases the temperature dependence au_{e-ph}^{-1} changes from T^3 to T^2, which can be result of a decrease in the dimension of the phonons involved in the e-ph scattering. The obtained values of material parameters of ultrathin NbN films can be useful for optimization of performance of NbN-based electronic devices.

Low-energy transport in a weakly disordered Weyl semimetal

Weyl semimetal is a solid material with isolated touching points between conduction and valence bands in its Brillouin zone---Weyl points. Low energy excitations near these points exhibit a linear dispersion and act as relativistic massless particles. Weyl points are stable topological objects robust with respect to most perturbations. We study effects of weak disorder on the spectral and transport properties of Weyl semimetals in the limit of low energies. We use a model of Gaussian white-noise potential and apply dimensional regularization scheme near three dimensions to treat divergent terms in the perturbation theory. In the framework of self-consistent Born approximation, we find closed expressions for the average density of states and conductivity. Both quantities are analytic functions in the limit of zero energy. We also include interference terms beyond the self-consistent Born approximation up to the third order in disorder strength. These interference corrections are stronger than the mean-field result and non-analytic as functions of energy. Our main result is the dependence of conductivity on the electron concentration $\sigma = \sigma_0 + A n^{1/3} + (B/\sigma_0) n^{2/3} \ln|n|$ with $A \approx -0.142$ and $B \approx 0.019$.

Magnon-Cooparons in magnet-superconductor hybrids

Generation and detection of spinfull Cooper pairs in conventional superconductors has been intensely pursued by designing increasingly complex magnet-superconductor hybrids. We demonstrate theoretically that magnons with nonzero wavenumbers universally induce a cloud of spinfull triplet Cooper pairs around them in an adjacent conventional superconductor. The resulting composite quasiparticle, termed magnon-cooparon, consists of a spin flip in the magnet screened by a cloud of the spinfull superfluid condensate. Thus, it inherits a large effective mass, which can be measured experimentally. Furthermore, we demonstrate that two magnetic wires deposited on a superconductor serve as a controllable magnonic directional coupler mediated by the nonlocal and composite nature of magnon-cooparons. Our analysis predicts a quasiparticle that enables generation, control, and use of spinfull triplet Cooper pairs in the simplest magnet-superconductor heterostructures.

Kulonovskie korrelyatsii kak pervoprichina ferromagnitnogo perekhoda v rezhime kvantovogo effekta Kholla s \nu=2

Poyavivshiisya v poslednyuyu dekadu novyi tip geterostruktur na osnove ZnO/MgZnO pozvolyaet zaglyanut' v fiziku dvumernykh elektronnykh sistem (DES) sushchestvenno dal'she, chem eto bylo vozmozhno v traditsionnykh poluprovodnikakh – kremnii i arsenide galliya. Prichinoi tomu yavlyayutsya sil'nye mezhchastichnye korrelyatsii v sochetanii s malym neodnorodnym ushireniem energeticheskikh urovnei. V etikh dvumernykh sistemakh sravnitel'no legko dostigaetsya parametr Vignera-Zeitsa r_s~5–12. Pri takom nevedomom ranee sochetanii parametrov «ne rabotayut» prezhnie teoreticheskie modeli, desyatiletiyami obkatannye na dvumernom elektronnom gaze. Kachestvennuyu transformatsiyu preterpevayut dazhe «khorosho izuchennye» odnochastichnye yavleniya, takie kak tselochislennyi kvantovyi effekt Kholla (KEKh) – potomu kak vsledstvie kulonovskogo vzaimodeistviya apriori zaputannoi stanovitsya sama sistema urovnei Landau. V prezhnikh magnitotransportnykh issledovaniyakh pokazano, chto samo yavlenie KEKh v geterostrukturakh ZnO ostaetsya, odnako osnovnoe sostoyanie sistemy sil'no modifitsirovano.

Postroena fazovaya diagramma dlya sostoyaniya KEKh \nu=2 pri izmenenii parametrov elektronnoi kontsentratsii i ugla naklona magnitnogo polya. Iz fazovoi diagrammy izvlecheny perenormirovannye fermi-zhidkostnye parametry dlya effektivnoi massy i spinovoi vospriimchivosti DES. Pokazano, chto imenno vozrastayushchaya rol' kulonovskikh korrelyatsii pri umen'shenii kontsentratsii DES yavlyaetsya pervoprichinoi dannogo fazovogo prevrashcheniya.

Pomimo fenomenologii ferromagnitnogo perekhoda v nastoyashchei rabote proveden analiz mikroskopicheskogo mekhanizma etogo yavleniya. Metodom neuprugogo rasseyaniya sveta proslezheno povedenie nizkoenergeticheskikh kollektivnykh vozbuzhdenii pri izmenenii kontsentratsii DES i pokazano, chto ferromagnitnyi perekhod nastupaet vsledstvie smyagcheniya tsiklotronnogo spin-flip vozbuzhdeniya (CSFE), i posleduyushchego lavinoobraznogo perekhoda elektronov mezhdu sosednimi urovnyami Landau s protivopolozhnymi spinovymi proektsiyami [2]. Analogichno, v terminakh kollektivnykh spinovykh vozbuzhdenii ob'yasnyaetsya i obratnyi perekhod ferromagnetik-paramagnetik [3]. V oboikh sluchayakh pokazana klyuchevaya rol' nalichiya magnitorotonnogo minimuma v dispersii spinovykh vozbuzhdenii.

Measurement-induced criticality

An open quantum system is continuously "monitored" by its environment, so its dynamics consists of two competing processes: unitary evolution, which generates entanglement and generically leads to chaotic dynamics, and non-unitary operations resulting from measurements and noisy couplings to the environment, that tend to irreversibly destroy quantum information by revealing it. A minimal model that captures these competing processes consists of a quantum circuit made up of random unitary gates interlaced with local projective measurements. Remarkably, this minimal model undergoes a dynamical phase transition as the rate of measurements is increased. In this talk, I will introduce an exact replica statistical mechanics approach to this problem, and show that the transition is described by a CFT with central charge c=0. I will also present numerical results on the spectrum of this theory using a transfer matrix approach that indicate multifractal scaling of correlation functions at the critical point, reflected in a continuous spectrum of scaling dimensions.

High-frequency transport and zero-sound in an array of SYK quantum dots

We study an array of strongly correlated quantum dots of complex SYK type and account for the effects of quadratic terms added to the SYK Hamiltonian; both local terms and inter-dot tunneling are considered in the non-Fermi-liquid temperature range T >> T_FL Electric σ(ω, p) and thermal κ(ω, p) conductivities are calculated as functions of frequency and momentum, for arbitrary values of the particle-hole asymmetry parameter. At low frequencies ω << T we find the Lorentz ratio L = κ(0, 0)/σ(0, 0) to be non-universal and temperature-dependent. At ω >> T the conductivity σ(ω, p) contains a pole with nearly linear dispersion ω ≈ sp ln (ω/T) reminiscent of the "zero-sound", known for Fermi-liquids.

Superconducting Circuit Realization of Combinatorial Gauge Symmetry

We propose a superconducting quantum circuit based on a general symmetry principle—combinatorial gauge symmetry—designed to emulate topologically ordered quantum liquids and serve as a foundation for the construction of topological qubits. The proposed circuit exhibits rich features: in the classical limit of large capacitances its ground state consists of two superimposed loop structures; one is a crystal of small loops containing disordered U(1) degrees of freedom, and the other is a gas of loops of all sizes associated with Z2 topological order. We show that these classical results carry over to the quantum case, where phase fluctuations arise from the presence of finite capacitances, yielding Z2 quantum topological order. A key feature of the exact gauge symmetry is that amplitudes connecting different Z2 loop states arise from paths having zero classical energy cost. As a result, these amplitudes are controlled by dimensional confinement rather than tunneling through energy barriers. We argue that this effect may lead to larger energy gaps than previous proposals that are limited by such barriers, potentially making it more likely for a topological phase to be experimentally observable. Finally, we discuss how our superconducting circuit realization of combinatorial gauge symmetry can be implemented in practice.

Topologically enabled superconductivity

Majorana zero modes are a much sought-after consequence of one-dimensional topological superconductivity. Here we show that, in turn, zero modes accompanying dynamical instanton events strongly enhance - in some cases even enable - superconductivity. We find that the dynamics of a one-dimensional topological triplet superconductor is governed by a theta-term in the action. For isotropic triplets, this term enables algebraic charge-2e superconductivity, which is destroyed by fluctuations in non-topological superconductors. For anisotropic triplets, zero modes suppress quantum phase slips and stabilize superconductivity over a large region of the phase diagram. We present predictions of correlation functions and thermodynamics for states of topologically enhanced superconductivity.

Electronic pumping of heat in absence of charge pumping

A mechanism of electron-mediated pumping of heat in the absence of net charge transfer is proposed. It may be realized in charge-neutral electron systems, such as graphene, coupled to an external electric potential. The flow of heat in this pumping cycle is not accompanied by a buildup of voltage along the system, which offers advantages over traditional thermoelectric cooling setups. Efficiency of heat pumping and magnitude of heat flux are studied in the hydrodynamic regime for weak disorder. In a pristine system, even for an infinitesimal pumping potential the heat flux remains finite. In particular, for a potential in the form of a traveling wave moving with velocity c the pumping is perfect; the entire heat content of the electron liquid is advected with velocity c. For a general pumping cycle the heat flux is determined by the cycle geometry and disorder strength.

Superconducting phases and the second Josephson harmonic in tunnel junctions between diffusive superconductors

(Ceminar v normal'nom rezhime, s translyatsiei: Zoom)

We consider a planar SIS-type Josephson junction between diffusive superconductors (S) through an insulating tunnel interface (I). We construct fully self-consistent perturbation theory with respect to the interface conductance. As a result, we find correction to the first Josephson harmonic and calculate the second Josephson harmonic. At arbitrary temperatures, we correct previous results for the nonsinusoidal current-phase relation in Josephson tunnel junctions, which were obtained with the help of conjectured form of solution. Our perturbation theory also describes the difference between the phases of the order parameter and of the anomalous Green functions.

Localization beyond convergence of the locator expansion or Correlation-induced localization

Recently, the standard picture of ALT in long-range systems [1, 2] has been argued from the following perspective. There have been reported [3-6] several counterintuitive examples of single-particle systems with long-range hopping, where almost all states are (at least power-law) localized even in a nominally ergodic regime, where the standard locator expansion breaks down [1, 2]. Some of these "new" models demonstrate critical behavior [3, 4] for disorder strengths below the ones at the ALT [1, 2]. In the other ones [6, 7] wave-function spatial decay rates obey a "mysterious" duality [6] mapping different powers of power-law bending [2]. The seminal paper on second-type models [7] has been unnoticed until recently.
What is the striking difference between the standard long-range models [1-2] and the new ones [3-8]? The systems [3-8] belong to a new universality class where correlations of hopping terms play a significant role in the localization properties. In my talk I address this intriguing question. I present a general approach applicable to all such models and uncover the role of correlations and the origin of the duality [A]. This method is based on the localization-delocalization principles both in the coordinate and in the momentum space. I will show that the so-called Mott's criterion (which is shown to be the sufficient criterion of ergodic delocalization) and the Anderson criterion (which is shown to be the sufficient criterion of localization) are not complimentary. There is a gap between their regions of validity where the non-ergodic extended phases and the novel correlation-induced localization may occur. To illustrate the above mentioned principles I will consider the models either with infinitely-long range hopping [3-5] or with power-law decaying ones [1-2, 6-8, A-F] and focus mostly on the latter class. The well-known example of the latter class is the power-law random banding matrices (PLRBM).
Furthermore, we extend the above mentioned models by a new class that bridge between the models with uncorrelated hopping and those with fully correlated ones. These are the models with translation-invariant (TI) long-range hopping terms which allow one to apply the above mentioned principles both in the coordinate and momentum spaces completing their phase diagrams. A remarkable feature of these random TI models is the presence of the Poisson spectral statistics within the delocalized phase. This goes against the common wisdom that the Poisson statistics signals of localization. The reason for such a behavior is that the Poisson spectral statistics emerges in the parameter region where the states in the coordinate space are, indeed, extended and weakly ergodic but those in the momentum space are localized. The common wisdom assumes by default that the states in momentum space are always chaotically extended. The TI models introduced in this paper constitute a class of models where this assumption fails. If time permits, I will mention some of the recent results on the topic for higher-dimensions, anisotropic models, and the effects of partial correlations in TI models.

Non-equilibrium Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model with quadratic perturbation

(Seminar v normal'nom rezhime, s translyatsiei: Zoom)

We consider a non-equilibrium generalization of the mixed SYK4 +SYK2 model and calculate the energy dissipation rate W(ω) that results due to periodic modulation of random quadratic matrix elements with a frequency ω. We find that W(ω) possesses a peak at ω close to the polaron energy spliting E1 found recently in [1], demonstrating physical significance of the energy E1. Next, we study the effect of energy pumping with a finite amplitude A1 at the resonance frequency ω = E1 and calculate, in presence of pumping, non-equilibrium boson distribution function and dissipation rate due to low-frequency parametric modulation. At sufficiently strong pumping, low-frequency dissipation rate recovers its large value, pertinent to the pure SYK4 limit.

Critical behavior of surface code statistical models

(Nazhmite dlya podklyucheniya: Zoom)

With the advent of large arrays of qubits coupled by high fidelity gates the possibility of forming a logical qubit from a large number of faulty physical ones becomes a reality. The problem of finding the probability of logical error, P(L), in a large system of size L ≫ 1 can be mapped into the statistical model, with P(L) that decreases to zero exponentially in the correctable phase. This decrease is sensitive to the probabilities of individual qubit errors, p, measurement errors, q, and error correlations, p_corr. Using a combination of numerical simulations and statistical physics arguments, we identify the regime in the parameter (p , q, p_corr) space in which error correction is possible and we find the logical error dependence on the system size. We argue that for surface code statistical models describing optimal error decoding at the Nishimori line, the critical exponent of the correlation length can be found exactly thereby allowing one to determine P(L) with limited numerical work. As the transition line is approached, we show that the dynamics in the models slows down dramatically due to Griffiths phase physics in these disordered systems, especially at large q. This result as well as the effect of p_corr show that at q ∼ p the error correction is much more difficult than for q ≪ p.

Quantum circuit kinetics of programmable quantum computers

(Nazhmite dlya podklyucheniya: Zoom)

Recent demonstration of the first beyond classical quantum computation with a programmable quantum computer [1] opens the path to discovery of new quantum physics phenomena using these hardware systems. Gate model quantum computers used in [1] realize complex multi-qubit evolution in terms of discrete gates, elementary one and two qubit unitary operations, practically realized by a local time-dependent Hamiltonian. In this talk we present a theory and experimental data describing quantum circuit kinetics in such systems, which answers the following question: how does a system initialized in a product state generate highly entangled states and in the case of a non-integrable system approach universal random matrix statistics? We characterize circuit kinetics using time-dependent evolution of out-of-time-order correlators (OTOC) and their ensemble variance. We demonstrate that dynamics of an ensemble average OTOC can be mapped onto a classical population dynamics process, an analog of hydrodynamic description. OTOC variance on the other hand is subject to a “sign problem” and therefore evades efficient classical description. We use ensemble average OTOC to verify hardware output whereas OTOC variance provides a signature of operator entanglement generated in the system [2].

Many-Body Level Statistics of Single-Particle Quantum Chaos

(Obychnyi doklad s onlain translyatsiei: Zoom)

We consider a noninteracting many-fermion system populating levels of a unitary random matrix ensemble —a generic model of single-particle quantum chaos. We study the corresponding many-particle level statistics by calculating the spectral form factor analytically using algebraic methods of random matrix theory, and match it with an exact numerical simulation. Despite the integrability of the theory, the many-body spectral rigidity is found to have a surprisingly rich landscape. In particular, we find a residual repulsion of distant many-body levels stemming from single-particle chaos, together with islands of level attraction. These results are encoded in an exponential ramp in the spectral form factor, which we show to be a universal feature of nonergodic many-fermion systems embedded in a chaotic medium.

Conductivity and thermoelectric coefficients of doped SrTiO3 at high temperatures

We developed a theory of electric and thermoelectric conductivity of lightly doped SrTiO3 in the non-degenerate region k_B T ≥ E_F , assuming that the major source of electron scattering is their interaction with soft transverse optical phonons present due to proximity to ferroelectric transition. We have used kinetic equation approach within relation-time approximation and we have determined energy-dependent transport relaxation time τ(E) by the iterative procedure. Using electron effective mass m and electron-transverse phonon coupling constant λ as two fitting parameters, we are able to describe quantitatively a large set of the measured temperature dependences of resistivity R(T) and Seebeck coefficient S(T) for a broad range of electron densities studied experimentally in recent paper by K.Behnia and his colleagues. In addition, we calculated Nernst ratio in the linear approximation over weak magnetic field in the same temperature range.

Electron-electron collisions give rise to frequent small-angle scattering processes that are interrupted by rare large-angle events. The latter give rise to a superdiffusive phase-space dynamics whose importance for relaxation processes, charge and heat transport, as well as collective modes will be discussed. I will also comment on implications for experiments with surface acoustic waves in graphene-piezoelectric devices.

Critical fluorescence of a transmon at the Schmid transition

(Nazhmite dlya podklyucheniya: Zoom)

We investigate inelastic microwave photon scattering by a transmon qubit embedded in a high-impedance circuit. The transmon undergoes a charge-localization (Schmid) transition upon the impedance reaching the critical value. Due to the unique transmon level structure, the fluorescence spectrum carries a signature of the transition point. At higher circuit impedance, quasi-elastic photon scattering may account for the main part of the inelastic scattering cross-section; we find its dependence on the qubit and circuit parameters. Our theory of total inelastic cross-section explains the measured quality factors of devices consisting of a transmon in a galvanic connection with a high-impedance Josephson junction array.

Quantum-critical dynamics of a Josephson junction at the topological transition

(Nazhmite dlya podklyucheniya: Zoom)

Superconducting quantum wires with broken time-reversal and spin-rotation symmetries are emerging as a building block of a topological qubit. By varying the applied external magnetic field or chemical potential such wires may be tuned through the quantum critical point into the topological phase. We investigate signatures of this quantum phase transition in the dynamic response of a Josephson junction. To this end, we compute the finite-frequency admittance Y(ω) of the junction at the topological transition and in its vicinity. At the critical point, the dependence of the admittance on frequency and temperature is universal and determined by the symmetries of the system. We find that, despite the closing of the spectral gap at the transition, the dissipative response may remain weak: ReY(ω) ~ max(ω, T)². This unusual power-law behavior is markedly different from the electromagnetic response of a normal metal. Away from the critical point, a gap opens in the spectrum of the system. The dependence of the admittance on frequency, temperature, and spectral gap has a scaling form. We apply our universal theory to find the scaling functions for different combinations of symmetries.

The fate of the superfluid density near the SIT in amorphous superconductors

(Nazhmite dlya podklyucheniya: Zoom)

Superconducting films of amorphous Indium Oxide (a:InO) thin films undergo a transition to insulation upon increasing disorder. This quantum phase transition is driven by the localization of preformation of Cooper pairs, which has been evidenced through various unusual spectroscopic properties. The continuous decrease of the critical temperature as the critical disorder approaches indicates a similarly continuous suppression of the superfluid density. In this talk I discuss the fate of the superfluid density in the vicinity of the transition to insulation in a:InO films. To access the superfluid density we conducted a systematic study of the whole plasmon dispersion spectrum of high quality factor microwave resonators made of a:InO, combined with DC resistivity measurements, as a function of disorder. Our main observations are a breakdown of the Mattis-Bardeen theory and a record kinetic inductance of 17nH per square for critical, superconducting samples. Surprisingly, we find that the superfluid density remains finite at the critical disorder. Besides providing new insights to understand the SIT in a:InO, these results may find applications in superconducting quantum circuits where very large inductances are highly desirable.

Fragile ergodic phases in logarithmically-normal Rosenzweig-Porter model

Webinar link: http://bbb2.itp.ac.ru/b/qme-erf-krk
Gaussian Rosenzweig-Porter (GRP) random matrix ensemble is the only one in which the robust multifractal phase have a status of a mathematical theorem. In this paper we suggest an extension of the GRP model, the LN-RP model, by adopting a logarithmically-normal (LN) distribution of off-diagonal matrix elements. We show that large matrix elements from the tail of this distribution give rise to a peculiar weakly-ergodic phase that replaces both the multifractal and the fully-ergodic phases present in GRP ensemble. A new phase is characterized by the broken basis-rotation symmetry which the fully-ergodic phase respects. Thus in addition to the localization and ergodic transitions in LN-RP model there exists also the FWT transition between the two ergodic phases. We formulate the criteria of the localization, ergodic and FWT transitions and obtain the phase diagram of the model. We also suggest a new criteria of stability of the non-ergodic phases and prove that the Anderson transition in LN-RP model is discontinuous, in contrast to its GRP counterpart.

Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model with perturbations: polaron in hyperbolic plane

Webinar link: http://bbb2.itp.ac.ru/b/qme-erf-krk
We study SYK_4 model with weak SYK_2 random terms of typical magnitude Γ beyond the simplest perturbative limit considered previously. In the intermediate range J/N << Γ << J/N^{1/2} of the perturbation strength Γ, fluctuations of the Schwarzian soft mode are suppressed and conformal mean-field solution for the Majorana Green function G(τ) is valid much beyond usual timescale t_∗ ∼ N/J characteristic for pure SYK_4 model. However, high momenta of the probability distribution of the Green function are shown to grow as ln([G(τ)]^p) ∝ p^2 at p >> 1, indicating log-normal shape of the distribution P[G(τ)] . Short-time decay of the out-of-time-order correlation function is characterized by the universal exponent 2πT/\hbar, while the pre-factor is much smaller than in pure SYK_4 model, and shows unusual temperature dependence.

Hydrodynamic description of transport in strongly correlated electron systems

Webinar link: http://bbb2.itp.ac.ru/b/qme-erf-krk
We develop a hydrodynamic description of the resistivity and magnetoresistance of an electron liquid in a smooth disorder potential. This approach is valid when the electron-electron scattering length is sufficiently short. In a broad range of temperatures, the dissipation is dominated by heat fluxes in the electron fluid, and the resistivity is inversely proportional to the thermal conductivity, κ. This is in striking contrast to the Stokes flow, in which the resistance is independent of κ and proportional to the fluid viscosity. We also identify a new hydrodynamic mechanism of spin magneto-resistance.

Long-range influence of manipulating disordered-insulators locally

Webinar: http://bbb2.itp.ac.ru/b/qme-erf-krk
Localization of wavefunctions is arguably the most familiar effect of disorder in quantum systems. It has been recently argued [V. Khemani, R. Nandkishore, and S. L. Sondhi, Nature Physics, 11, 560 (2015)] that, contrary to naive expectation, manipulation of a localized-site in the disordered medium may produce a disturbance over a length-scale much larger than the localization-length ξ. Here we report on the observation of this nonlocal phenomenon in electronic transport experiment. Being a wave property, visibility of this effect hinges upon quantum-coherence, and its spatial-scale may be ultimately limited by the phase-coherent length of the disordered insulator. Evidence for quantum coherence in the Anderson-insulating phase may be obtained from magneto-resistance measurements which however are useful mainly in thin-films. The technique used in this work offers an empirical method to measure this fundamental aspect of Anderson-insulators even in relatively thick samples.

In addition, it is recommended by the author to read the following two papers before the seminar:

Fractional Chern Insulator States in Twisted Bilayer Graphene

Webinar: http://bbb2.itp.ac.ru/b/qme-erf-krk
Recent experiments on twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) near the magic angle have observed spontaneous integer quantum Hall states in the presence of an aligned hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) substrate. These states arise from valley ferromagnetism, and the complete filling of Chern bands. A natural question is whether fractional filling of the same bands would lead to fractional quantum Hall states, i.e. to fractional Chern insulators (FCIs). Using a variant of the continuum model for TBG with zero hopping between AA Moire cites we construct a Laughlin wave function on a real-space torus in full analogy with the Haldane and Rezayi construction for two-dimensional electrons at the lowest Landau-level on a torus.

Soluble limit and criticality of fermions in Z2 gauge theories

Webinar: http://bbb2.itp.ac.ru/b/qme-erf-krk
Quantum information theory and strongly correlated electron systems share a common theme of macroscopic quantum entanglement. In both topological error correction codes and theories of quantum materials (spin liquid, heavy fermion and high-Tc systems) entanglement is implemented by means of an emergent gauge symmetry. Inspired by these connections, here we introduce a simple model for fermions moving in the deconfined phase of a Z2 gauge theory, by coupling Kitaev's toric code to mobile fermions. This permits us to exactly solve the ground state of this system and map out its phase diagram. By changing the sign of the plaquette term in the toric code, we are able to tune the groundstate between an orthogonal metal and an orthogonal semimetal, in which the single particle correlators of the original Fermi operators are gapped, despite the existence of gapless collective modes. The small-to-large Fermi surface transition between these two states occurs in a stepwise fashion with multiple intermediate phases. We are able to access the physics beyond the integrable point using a novel diagrammatic perturbation expansion, which allows us to examine various instabilities of the deconfined phase and to derive the Ising (XY) critical theory at the transition between deconfined and confined metal (semimetal). Finally, the connection to quantum information science allows to discuss an analogue quantum emulator (an array of Majorana Cooper pair boxes) for fermions in Z2 gauge theories. Analytical results for this minimal model pave the way for a better understanding of quantum materials with itinerant fermions and the connection to the toric code opens the potential for simulation using upcoming quantum information techniques.

Strange metal state near quantum superconductor-metal transition in thin films

We develop a theory of quantum T = 0 phase transition (q-SMT) between metal and superconducting ground states in a two-dimensional metal with frozen-in spatial fluctuations δλ(r) of the Cooper attraction constant. When strength of fluctuations δλ(r) exceeds some critical magnitude, usual mean-field-like scenario of the q-SMT breaks down due to spontaneous formation of local droplets of superconducting phase. The density of these droplets grows exponentially with the increase of average attraction constant λ. Interaction between the droplet's order parameters is due to proximity effect via normal metal and scales with distance ∝ 1/rβ, with 2 < β ≤ 3. We account for this interaction by means of a real-space strong-disorder renormalization group (RG). Near the q-SMT the RG flow is, formally, a dual equivalent of the Kosterlitz-Thouless RG. The corresponding line of fixed points describes a Griffiths phase of a metal with large fractal clusters of superconducting islands. Superconducting side is described by a runaway of RG trajectories into the strong-coupling region. Close to the transition point on the SC side, 0 < −δ << 1, RG trajectories possess an extremum as function of the RG parameter ∼ |δ| 1/2 ln(1/T). It results in a very wide temperature range where physical properties are nearly T-independent. This observation may be relevant to the understanding of a ”strange metal” state frequently observed near q-SMT.

"Coherence-decoherence transition in a spin-magnetoexcitonic ensemble in a quantum Hall system"

In the talk, we focus on the physics of magneto-excitons in a quantum Hall insulator at the filling factor of 2. The simplest realizations are magneto-excitons formed by an electron promoted from the occupied zeroth Landau level to the empty first Landau level and by the vacancy under the Fermi level. There are two magneto-excitons: a spin-singlet with total spin S = 0; and a spin-triplet (CSFE) with total spin S = 1. The first one is magneto-plasmon which decays with the emission of a photon. In contrast, the CSFE is not radiatively active owing to electron spin conservation and its energy is lower than the cyclotron energy. Consequently, spin-triplet magneto-excitons exhibit relaxation time reaching up to 900 us. We also discovered condensation of excitons by measurement of exciton lifetime in a temperature range of 0.5–1.5 K. Here we report on spin exciton transfer at distance exceeding 200 μm by pump-probe photo-luminescence measurements and photo-resonant reflection. These effects exhibit threshold both in excitation power and temperature.

The experimental studies on CSFE ensembles that have to obey the Bose-Einstein statistics signal the emergence of an excitonic coherent phase. In the present paper, the theory is developed of the weakly interacting Bose gas of spin-cyclotron excitations in terms of a virial correction to the single magnetoexciton energy. The condition for a coherent-incoherent phase transition is discussed. It is expected to be strongly related to the studied long-distant inter-excitonic correlations. The results obtained theoretically are discussed in terms of their agreement with specific experimental data.

Noise of charge current generated by driven magnet

We determine the noise of charge current that is generated by a precessing magnetization of a small itinerant ferromagnet, which is driven by ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) and tunnel-coupled to two normal metal leads. Even when the leads are in equilibrium with each other, i.e. neither voltage nor thermal bias is applied, the electron system is driven out of equilibrium by the precessing magnetization. In turn, a non-equilibrium electron distribution develops in the small ferromagnet. This distribution is governed by the dynamics of the magnetization and determines the (zero-frequency) noise of charge current. We show that this noise can be used to gain information about the magnetization dynamics.

Resonance Absorption of Terahertz Radiation in Nanoperforated Graphene

Recent measurements of the conductivity of nanoperforated graphene are interpreted in terms of edges states existing near the edge of each nanohole. The perimetric quantization of edge states should result in the formation of a quasi-equidistant ladder of quasistationary energy levels. Dirac fermions filling this ladder rotate about each nanohole in the direction determined by the valley index. We show that the irradiation of this system by circularly polarized terahertz radiation leads to a resonance in absorption in one of the valleys. The magnitude of absorption at the resonance frequency can be controlled by means of gate voltage.

Coherent excited states in superconductors due to a microwave field

We describe theoretically the depairing effect of a microwave field on diffusive s-wave superconductors. The ground state of the superconductor is altered qualitatively in analogy to the depairing due to a dc current. In contrast to dc-depairing the density of states acquires, for microwaves with frequency \omega_0, steps at multiples of the photon energy \Delta \pm n\hbar\omega_0 and shows an exponential-like tail in the subgap regime. We show that this ac-depairing explains the measured frequency shift of a superconducting resonator at high microwave power and low temperatures.

Quantum tunneling vs. thermal effects in experiments on adiabatic quantum computing

Referativnyi doklad po rabote D. M. Silevitch, T. F. Rosenbaum and G. Aeppli, Eur. Phys. J. Special Topics 224, 25 (2015)

Traditional simulated annealing uses thermal fluctuations for convergence in optimization problems. Quantum tunneling provides a different mechanism for moving between states, with the potential for reduced time scales and different outcomes. Thermal and quan- tum annealing are compared in two concentration regimes of a model disordered magnet, where the effects of quantum mechanics can be tuned both by varying an applied magnetic field and by controlling the strength of thermal coupling between the magnet and an external heat bath. The results indicate that quantum annealing hastens convergence to the final state, and that the quantum character of the final state can be engineered thermodynamically.

What is the computational value of finite range tunneling?

Referativnyi doklad po rabote V. S. Denchev et al (Google Inc.), arxiv.org/1512.02206

Quantum annealing (QA) has been proposed as a quantum enhanced optimization heuristic exploiting tunneling. Here, we demonstrate how finite range tunneling can provide considerable computational advantage. For a crafted problem designed to have tall and narrow energy barriers separating local minima, the D-Wave 2X quantum annealer achieves significant runtime advantages relative to Simulated Annealing (SA). For instances with 945 variables, this results in a time-to-99%-success-probability that is ∼108 times faster than SA running on a single processor core. We also compared physical QA with Quantum Monte Carlo (QMC), an algorithm that emulates quantum tunneling on classical processors. We observe a substantial constant overhead against physical QA: D-Wave 2X again runs up to ∼108 times faster than an optimized implementation of QMC on a single core. We note that there exist heuristic classical algorithms that can solve most instances of Chimera structured problems in a timescale comparable to the D-Wave 2X. However, we believe that such solvers will become ineffective for the next generation of annealers currently being designed. To investigate whether finite range tunneling will also confer an advantage for problems of practical interest, we conduct numerical studies on binary optimization problems that cannot yet be represented on quantum hardware. For random instances of the number partitioning problem, we find numerically that QMC, as well as other algorithms designed to simulate QA, scale better than SA. We discuss the implications of these findings for the design of next generation quantum annealers.

Out-of-time-order correlators in solid state physics

Out-of-time-order correlators introduced recently in the context of quantum gravity describe the delocalization of information in quantum systems. In classical chaotic systems, these correlators are known to grow exponentially with the Lyupanov exponent. I discuss the behavior of these correlators in canonical examples of solid state quantum chaotic systems: disordered electrons with and without phonon interaction.

Current-phase relation and h/e-periodic critical current of a chiral Josephson contact between 1D Majorana modes

We explore a long Josephson contact transporting Cooper pairs between 1D charge-neutral chiral Majorana modes in the leads via charged Dirac chiral modes in the normal region. We investigate the regimes of transparent and tunnel junctions implemented in 3D topological insulator/superconductor/magnet hybrid structures. The setup acts as a SQUID controlled by the magnetic flux enclosed by the chiral loop of the normal region. This chirality leads to the fractional h/e-periodic pattern of critical current. The current-phase relation can have sawtooth-like shape with spikes at unusual even phases of 2\pi n.

Odd-frequency Cooper Pairs

The concept of the odd-frequency Cooper pairs was first proposed by Berezinskii in 1974 to describe superfluidity of 3He [1]. Although the odd-frequency superconductivity has never been confirmed in any materials, the odd-frequency pairs appear as the subdominant pairing correlation in various proximity structures such as superconductor / ferromagnet (SF) junctions [2] and normal-metal / superconductor (NS) junctions with unconventional pairing symmetry [3]. In the presentation, we explain what the odd-frequency pairs are, how they appear in such proximity structure, how to detect them, and how they are different from usual even-frequency pairs in the bulk. We first discuss the enhancement of the quasiparticle density of states at the zero-energy [2,4-5] and its influence on the low-energy electric transport [6]. Next we show the paramagnetic property of odd-frequency pairs [7-10] which can be confirmed in the surface impedance measurement at low temperature [11]. We also discuss a relation to the Majorana physics [12-13]. Finally we explain why such unusual pairs appear in inhomogeneous superconducting systems [14].

Half-integer quantum Hall effect of disordered Dirac fermions at a topological insulator surface

The unconventional (half-integer) quantum Hall effect for a single species of Dirac fermions is analyzed. In the introduction I will discuss experimental measurements of the half-integer Hall conductance g_{xy} of topological insulator surface states and unveil its field theoretical origin. For the calculation of the conductivity tensor, the following two step procedure is applied. In the first step, semiclassical transport coefficients are derived in the case of both orbital and Zeeman coupling to an external magnetic field. In this context, I plan to give a pedagogic review of the modified Boltzmann transport theory for the anomalous Hall effect. The semiclassical conductivity tensor serves as input parameters for the second step: It consists in the renormalization group treatment of the appropriately modified non-linear sigma model and thus accounts for localization effects. The resulting phase diagram (levitation scenario) will also be discussed in this context. If time permits, I will further explain how to reconcile Laughlin's flux insertion argument with half-integer Hall conductance and/or present the calculation of the current density beyond linear response in the limit of smooth scalar potential.

Localization at the edge of a 2D topological insulator

We study transport via edge modes of a 2D topological insulator. Topological protection prevents complete localization of the edge states; however, quantum interference effects are still relevant for the transport properties at finite length scales. We mainly focus on the two most experimentally relevant cases: (i) a junction between two quantum Hall insulators with different filling factors and hence an imbalance in the number of right- and left-propagating modes (symmetry class A) and (ii) a relatively thick HgTe quantum well in the insulating state with an arbitrary number of edge modes (symmetry class AII). We derive the distribution of transmission probabilities as a function of the distance between leads. This allows us to demonstrate topological effects in the average conductance and the shot noise of the setup. We also consider mesoscopic fluctuations and compute the variance of conductance. This quantity is strongly influenced by topology in the quantum Hall case. All the calculations are carried out assuming localization effects are weak, i.e., in the short length limit. Technically, this amounts to studying 1D non-linear sigma model with a proper topological term and source fields on the semiclassical level. Remarkably, the semiclassical limit of the 1D sigma model can be exactly mapped onto a fully quantum 0D sigma model of a different symmetry class. This allows us to identify the distribution of transmission probabilities with the spectrum of a certain random matrix.

AA-stacked bilayer graphene in an applied electric field: Tunable
antiferromagnetism and coexisting exciton order parameter

We study electronic properties of AA-stacked bilayer graphene. In the single-particle approximation such a system has one electron band and one hole band crossing the Fermi level. If the bilayer is undoped, the Fermi surfaces of these bands coincide. Such a band structure is unstable with respect to a set of spontaneous symmetry violations. Specifically, strong on-site Coulomb repulsion stabilizes antiferromagnetic order. At small doping and low temperatures, the homogeneous phase is unstable and experiences phase separation into an undoped antiferromagnetic insulator and a metal. The metallic phase can be either antiferromagnetic (commensurate or incommensurate) or paramagnetic depending on the system parameters. We derive the phase diagram of the system on the doping-temperature plane and find that under certain conditions, the transition from the paramagnetic to the antiferromagnetic phase may demonstrate reentrance. The application of the transverse voltage induces the exciton order parameter coexisting with antiferromagnetism. The value of this second order parameter is proportional to the biased voltage and the value of the nearest- neighbor inter-plane Coulomb repulsion.

Fermi Edge Singularity in Chiral One-dimensional Systems far from Equilibrium

We study the effects of strong coupling of a localized state charge to one-dimensional electronic channels out of equilibrium. While the state of this charge and the coupling strength determine the scattering phase shifts in the channels, the non-equilibrium partitioning noise induces the tunneling transitions to the localized state. The strong coupling leads to a non-perturbative backaction effect which is manifested in the orthogonality catastrophe and the Fermi edge singularity in the transition rates. The non-Gaussian component of noise brakes the charge symmetry, shifting the position of the tunneling resonance depending on the sign of the dissipative current and the transparency of the noise emitting partitioning quantum point contact.

Quantum criticality in quasi one-dimensional topological nanowires

Using the combination of analytical and numerical techniques we develop the theory of quantum criticality in disordered topological multi-channel nanowires of symmetry classes AIII and BDI [1]. The minimal representative phase portrait is characterized by two parameters $(\mu, w)$, where $\mu$ is the external control parameter (e.g. the chemical potential) and $w$ is the disorder strength. With the increase of $w$ at a fixed value of $\mu$ the wires generically undergo a sequence of topological phase transitions before the asymptotic state of a trivial Anderson insulator is reached. The universal description of the systems is given in terms of two parameters $(g,\chi)$, where $g$ is conductance and $\chi$ is a topological angle. Contour lines of half-integer valued $\chi$ in $(\mu, w)$-parameter space define phase boundaries between distinct topological sectors. Upon increasing the length of the wire, the pair $(g, \chi)$ exhibits flow similar to the celebrated two parameter flow describing the class A quantum Hall insulator. However, unlike the quantum Hall system, an exact analytical description of the entire phase diagram can be given. We corroborate the quantitative validity of our theory by comparison to numerical transfer matrix computations.

Flips of electric field in microwave-induced states with spontaneously broken symmetry

We present new results on the bistability effect recently observed [Dorozhkin et al., Nature Physics 7, 336 (2011)] in two-dimensional electron systems subjected to the microwave radiation. The effect appears as switching between two states with different electric potential distribution across a sample. Our results here imply that the main difference between these two states is an opposite direction of a long lengthscale electric field which arises spontaneously under conditions when the observable magnetoresistance tends to zero. Although a possibility of the field reversal is an inherent property of states with spontaneously broken symmetry, so far such effect was never observed under stationary external conditions.

Statistical mechanics of Coulomb gases as quantum theory on Riemann surfaces

A number of physical problems may be formulated in terms of non-Hermitian quantum theories. A notable example is provided by mapping of 1D Coulomb gases onto an effective non-Hermitian Quantum Mechanics. Employing methods from algebraic topology we describe a non-perturbative method of instanton calculus for non-Hermitian Hamiltonians. Treating momentum and coordinate as complex variables yields Riemann surfaces of complex energy. The classical and instanton actions are given by the periods of this surface. We demonstrate the accuracy of this analytic procedure in comparison with numerical simulations for a class of periodic non-Hermitian Hamiltonians, as well as the validity of the Bohr-Sommerfeld quantization and Gamow’s formula in these cases.

New Dirac points and multiple Landau level crossings in biased trilayer graphene

Recently a new high-mobility Dirac material, trilayer graphene, was realized experimentally. The band structure of ABA-stacked trilayer graphene consists of a monolayer-like and a bilayer-like pair of bands. Here we study electronic properties of ABA-stacked trilayer graphene biased by a perpendicular electric field. We find that the combination of the bias and trigonal warping gives rise to a set of new Dirac points: In each valley, seven species of Dirac fermions with small masses of order of a few meV emerge. The positions and masses of the emergent Dirac fermions are tunable by bias, and one group of Dirac fermions becomes massless at a certain bias value.

Further, we analyze the evolution of the Landau level spectrum as a function of bias. We develop a theoretical model and argue that, in contrast to monolayer and bilayer graphene, the Landau level splittings and quantum Hall phase transitions observed in a recent experiment can be understood within a single-particle picture, but imply the presence of a charge density imbalance between the inner and outer layers of TLG, even at charge neutrality and zero transverse electric field. Our results indicate the importance of a previously unaccounted band structure parameter. We show that the pattern of Landau level crossings is very sensitive to certain band structure parameters, and can therefore provide a useful tool for determining their precise values.

Quantum Hall criticality and localization in graphene with short-range impurities at the Dirac point

Strong impurities crucially affect the spectral and transport properties of graphene near the Dirac point creating the "mid-gap" states. We first consider the ultimate case of very strong on-site potential impurities that are equivalent to vacancies in the lattice. Vacancies in the honeycomb lattice possess two important properties: (i) they preserve the chiral symmetry of the model and (ii) they scatter resonantly at zero energy (Dirac point). We study the density of states in graphene with sublattice imbalance [1]: we assume that the concentration of vacancies is different in the two sublattices. The imbalance leads to a finite concentration of zero modes of the tight-binding Hamiltonian. We derive the non-linear sigma model for the chiral system with imbalance. Semiclassical density of states acquires a finite gap around the Dirac point with the delta-function peak exactly in the center of the gap. Finite density of zero modes results in the additional term in the sigma-model action. The perturbative renormalization group analysis of this theory yields corrections to the density of states above the gap. In order to obtain a finite density of states below the semiclassical gap, we include non- perturbative contributions to the partition function due to instanton configurations of the field.

Further, we explore the longitudinal conductivity of graphene at the Dirac point in strong magnetic field with two types of short-range scatterers of a finite strength: adatoms that mix the valleys and "scalar" impurities that do not mix them [2]. A scattering theory for the Dirac equation is employed to express the conductance of a graphene sample at charge neutrality as a function of impurity coordinates; an averaging over positions of impurities is then performed numerically. The conductivity is equal to the ballistic value for each disorder realization, provided the number of flux quanta considerably exceeds the number of impurities. For weaker fields, the conductivity in the presence of scalar impurities scales to the quantum-Hall critical point at half filling or to zero away from half filling due to the onset of Anderson localization. For adatoms, the localization behavior is obtained also at half filling due to splitting of the critical energy by intervalley scattering. Our results reveal a complex scaling flow governed by fixed points of different symmetry classes.

Energy spectrum reconstruction at the edge of a two-dimensional electron
system with strong spin-orbit coupling

We experimentally demonstrate the simultaneous reconstruction of the bulk and the edge energy spectra caused by strong spin-orbit interaction, at the two lowest filling factors ν=1 and ν=2 for InxGa1−xAs two-dimensional electron system with x=0.75. The observed reconstruction is of different character at these filling factors: It is characterized by zeroing of the energy gap at the levels crossing point at ν=2, while the reconstruction at ν=1 goes through the coexistence of two ν=1 quantum Hall phases with different spin projections. An analysis indicates a strong influence of many-body interaction on the reconstruction at ν=1.

Interaction and disorder effects in 3D topological insulator thin films

It has been recently predicted that Coulomb interaction drives a surface of a 3D topological insulator into a critical state (Ostrovsky et al., PRL 105, 036803 (2010)). We employ the sigma-model formalism to investigate the effect of electron-electron interaction on the transport by surface states in topological insulator thin films. We take into account the interaction of electrons on different surfaces and also the top-bottom asymmetry of the film (different densities of states and strength of disorder on top/bottom surface). This asymmetry is naturally present in experiments where the electronic densities on the surfaces are controlled independently by means of electrostatic gates. The lack of symmetry between top and bottom surfaces is shown to have strong effect on the film conductivity. The interplay of weak antilocalization, Coulomb interaction within and between surfaces and topological protection leads to a rich flow diagram representing the low temperature behavior of the system. In particular, the intersurface interaction is found to evoke a non-monotonic temperature dependence of the conductuctivity and eventually drives the film into a metallic state. The connection with recent experiments on Bi_2Se_3 films is discussed.

Incoherent scatterer in a Luttinger liquid: a new paradigmatic limit

We address the problem of a Luttinger liquid with a scatterer that allows for both coherent and incoherent scattering channels. The asymptotic behavior at zero temperature is governed by a new stable fixed point: a Goldstone mode dominates the low energy dynamics, leading to a universal behavior. This limit is marked by equal probabilities for forward and backward scattering. Notwithstanding this non-trivial scattering pattern, we find that the shot noise as well as zero cross-current correlations vanish. We thus present a paradigmatic picture of an impurity in the Luttinger model, alternative to the Kane-Fisher picture.

Metal-insulator transition in 2D random fermion systems of chiral
symmetry classes

Field-theoretical approach to Anderson localization in 2D disordered fermionic systems of chiral symmetry classes (BDI, AIII, CII) is developed. Important representatives of these symmetry classes are random hopping models on bipartite lattices at the band center. As was found by Gade and Wegner two decades ago within the sigma-model formalism, quantum interference effects in these classes are absent to all orders of perturbation theory. We demonstrate that the quantum localization effects emerge when the theory is treated non-perturbatively. Specifically, they are controlled by topological vortex-like excitations of the sigma models. We derive renormalization group equations including these non-perturbative contributions. Analyzing them, we find that the 2D disordered systems of chiral classes undergo a metal-insulator transition driven by topologically induced Anderson localization. We also show that the Wess-Zumino and Z_2 theta terms on surfaces of 3D topological insulators (in classes AIII and CII, respectively) overpower the vortex-induced localization.

We report thermodynamic magnetization measurements of a 2-dimensional electron gas for several high mobility Si-MOSFETs. The low-temperature magnetization is shown to be strongly sub-linear function of the magnetic field. The susceptibility determined from the zero-field slope grows with cooling as 1/Tα, with α=2.4±0.2 even at high electron densities, in apparent contradiction with the Fermi-liquid picture.

Critical random matrix ensembles, Luttinger liquid formalism and sonic analogues of black holes

I will review old and recent results for eigenfunction and eigenvalue statisitics of certain random matrix ensembles and show the correspondence between them and statistics in the 3D Anderson model at criticality. From the conventional viewpoint of RMT the two ensembles belong to distinctly different universality classes, being invariant and non-invariant with respect to rotation of basis, respectively.

Yet we show the similarity of their level statistics and a possibility of unifying them using the Luttinger liquid formalism. We also show that the level correlations in the invariant RMT show properties similar to expected density correlations in the sonic analogue of black holes.

Spin and Charge Correlations in Quantum Dots: An Exact Solution (for the Tunneling Density of States)

I.Burmistrov, Y. Gefen, M. Kiselev

Abstract: The inclusion of charging and spin-exchange interactions within the Universal Hamiltonian description of quantum dots is challenging as it leads to a non-Abelian action. Here we present an exact analytical solution of the probem, in particular, in the vicinity of the Stoner instabilty point. We specifically calculate the tunneling density of states (TDOS) and the spin susceptibility. Near the instability point the TDOS exhibits a non-monotonous behavior as function of the tunneling energy, even at temperatures higher than the exchange energy. Our approach is generalizable to a broad set of observables, including the a.c. susceptibility and the absorption spectrum for anisotrpic spin interaction. Our results could be tested in nearly ferromagnetic materials.

2) Quantum divisibility test and its application in mesoscopic physics [G.B.Lesovik, M.V.Suslov, and G.Blatter]

Quantum mechanics offers novel algorithms speeding up the solution of specific computational tasks. While applications in quantum cryptography are close to commercial realization, building a universal quantum computer with thousands of quantum bits lies in the distant future, if ever realized. In this situation, it is interesting to consider special tasks, less demanding in their requirements regarding the number of qubits and the network complexity. Here, we discuss an algorithm and its application where a few qubits serve as active or passive detectors. The core algorithmic element is a setup with K qubits allowing to count the elements in a stream of particles flowing in a quantum wire and represent it in a binary form. Applications include a divisibility-check to experimentally determine the size of a finite train of particles in a quantum wire and a scheme allowing to entangle multi-particle wave functions in a Mach-Zehnder interferometer, generating Bell-, Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger-, or Dicke states.

arXiV:0802.0379 Creation and manipulation of anyons in the Kitaev model S. Dusuel, K. P. Schmidt, J. Vidal

We analyze the effect of local spin operators in the Kitaev model on the honeycomb lattice. We show, in perturbation around the isolated-dimer limit, that they create Abelian anyons together with fermionic excitations which are likely to play a role in experiments. We derive the explicit form of the operators creating and moving Abelian anyons without creating fermions and show that it involves multi-spin operations. Finally, the important experimental constraints stemming from our results are discussed.

Geizenbergovskii obmen v kvantovoi provoloke v rezhime nizkoi plotnosti

Pri nizkoi plotnosti, elektrony v kvantovoi provoloke mogut obrazovat' vignerovskii kristall. V etom sluchae geizenbergovskii obmen mezhdu paroi blizhaishikh elektronov voznikaet v rezul'tate tunnelirovaniya pod razdelyayushchim ikh kulonovskim bar'erom. Pri etom kulonovskoe vzaimodeistvie vovlekaet v protsess tunnelirovaniya i vse ostal'nye elektrony, ch'e vliyanie na velichinu konstanty geizenbergovskogo obmena my i izuchaem - kak analiticheski, tak i chislenno.
