If you cool one part of a connected system, does the remaining part also cool down?
Answer: Not always! https://t.co/vfGBjIJHPb

Pump and left end and loss at right end - what do you get?
Move independently: Steady current (Top),
Preserve center of mass: Domain wall! (Bottom).

Why limit condensed matter to regular lattices? What happens when we have a general network of qubits where each bond is antiferromagnetic? Find out in our recent preprint: https://t.co/uuk6XmAdud. #ComplexNetworks #FrustratedMagnetism

In a recent work we explore how some of the iconic classical nonlinear phenomena emerge from a quantum description: https://t.co/I0AFXCj7OD. The animation shows how a quantum spin approaches and diffuses around a classical limit cycle.

Excited to join @RRI_Bangalore as a new faculty in #quantum theory! https://t.co/v8v74NMPxX. Interested students and postdocs please see https://t.co/owiKh4i1td.

In the world of fundamental particles, you are either a fermion or a boson but a new study from @liamlhlau and @ShovanDutta20 shows, for the first time, that one can behave as the other as they move from one place to another:

A story on how we could tune the nature of a #quantum phase transition from continuous to discontinuous, taking a step towards table-top simulation of structure formation in #cosmology.
Here's a more succinct version: https://t.co/PuVb3s10Uc.

Shake it (like an optical lattice potential)...

Cavendish researchers have realised a discontinuous phase transition using ultracold atoms in an optical lattice potential; opening the door to quantum simulation of false vacuum decay in the early universe:

My first publication! This was work done with @ShovanDutta20 when I was an undergraduate at the University of Cambridge's @DeptofPhysics .

Teaching an old dog new tricks:

We could turn the Superfluid to Mott insulatior transition into a first-order transition and observe the resulting metastability.

Glad to present our new cDMRG technique for efficiently simulating continuous 1D quantum systems, and answer any questions! Talk @QuantSciTech #Quantum2020 on 19 Oct 9:45am GMT. Abstract: https://t.co/0nRSqp4XUK

Can you have stable long-range coherence in a dissipative many-body quantum system? Can a symmetry stabilize nonlocal Bell pairs?🤔 See latest findings on Monday's poster at #mcqst2020 [https://t.co/WXEOBBdRJA]. Hint: the answer is yes!
