Dissipative Dynamical Phase Transition as a Complex Ising Model

Kavli Affiliate: Matthew P. A. Fisher | First 5 Authors: Stephen W. Yan, Diego Barberena, Matthew P. A. Fisher, Sagar Vijay, | Summary: We investigate a quantum dynamical phase transition induced by the competition between local unitary evolution and dissipation in a qubit chain with a strong, on-site $mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry. While the steady-state of this […]

A photonic integrated circuit for heterogeneous second harmonic generation

Kavli Affiliate: John E. Bowers | First 5 Authors: Theodore J. Morin, Mingxiao Li, Federico Camponeschi, Hou Xiong, Deven Tseng | Summary: Heterogeneous integration of GaAs-based lasers with frequency doubling waveguides presents a clear path to scalable coherent sources in the so-called green gap, yet frequency doubling systems have so far relied on separately manufactured […]

EvTTC: An Event Camera Dataset for Time-to-Collision Estimation

Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Kaizhen Sun, Jinghang Li, Kuan Dai, Bangyan Liao, Wei Xiong | Summary: Time-to-Collision (TTC) estimation lies in the core of the forward collision warning (FCW) functionality, which is key to all Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) systems. Although the success of solutions using frame-based cameras (e.g., Mobileye’s solutions) […]

A solvable model for strongly interacting nonequilibrium excitons

Kavli Affiliate: Leon Balents | First 5 Authors: Zhenhao Song, Tessa Cookmeyer, Leon Balents, , | Summary: We study the driven-dissipative Bose-Hubbard model with all-to-all hopping and subject to incoherent pumping and decay, as is naturally probed in several recent experiments on excitons in WS2/WSe2 moir’e systems, as well as quantum simulators. By positing a […]

Successive magnetic transitions in the spin-5/2 easy-axis triangular-lattice antiferromagnet Na$_2$BaMn(PO$_4$)$_2$: A neutron diffraction study

Kavli Affiliate: Gang Su | First 5 Authors: Chuandi Zhang, Junsen Xiang, Cheng Su, Denis Sheptyakov, Xinyang Liu | Summary: Motivated by the recent observations of various exotic quantum states in the equilateral triangular-lattice phosphates Na$_2$BaCo(PO$_4$)$_2$ with $Jrm_{eff}$ = 1/2 and Na$_2$BaNi(PO$_4$)$_2$ with $S$ = 1, the magnetic properties of spin-5/2 antiferromagnet Na$_2$BaMn(PO$_4$)$_2$, their classical […]

Fractionalized Kohn-Sham ansatz for strongly-correlated electrons

Kavli Affiliate: Zheng Zhu | First 5 Authors: Bo Zhao, Jingyu Zhao, Zheng Zhu, Jian Wu, Zheng Liu | Summary: We propose to expand the territory of density functional theory to strongly-correlated electrons by reformulating the Kohn-Sham ansatz in the representation of fractionalized particles. We call it the ”KS* ansatz”. Using inhomogeneous t-J chains as […]

ReconDreamer: Crafting World Models for Driving Scene Reconstruction via Online Restoration

Kavli Affiliate: Zheng Zhu | First 5 Authors: Chaojun Ni, Guosheng Zhao, Xiaofeng Wang, Zheng Zhu, Wenkang Qin | Summary: Closed-loop simulation is crucial for end-to-end autonomous driving. Existing sensor simulation methods (e.g., NeRF and 3DGS) reconstruct driving scenes based on conditions that closely mirror training data distributions. However, these methods struggle with rendering novel […]

Postselection in lattice bosons undergoing continuous measurements

Kavli Affiliate: Matthew P. A. Fisher | First 5 Authors: Diego Barberena, Matthew P. A. Fisher, , , | Summary: We study in detail the postselection problem in a specific model: bosons hopping on a lattice subjected to continuous local measurements of quadrature observables. We solve the model analytically and show that the postselection overhead […]

Rigidity Results for Compact Submanifolds with Pinched Ricci Curvature in Euclidean and Spherical Space Forms

Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Jianquan Ge, Ya Tao, Yi Zhou, , | Summary: For compact submanifolds in Euclidean and Spherical space forms with Ricci curvature bounded below by a function $alpha(n,k,H,c)$ of mean curvature, we prove that the submanifold is either isometric to the Einstein Clifford torus, or a topological sphere […]
