Abstract: We consider the ground state of an electron gas embedded in a quantum gyrotropic cavity. We show that the light-matter interaction leads to a nontrivial topology of the many-body electron-photon wave function characterized by a nonzero Berry curvature. Physically, the latter manifests as the anomalous Hall effect, appearance of equilibrium edge/surface currents and orbital magnetization induced by vacuum fluctuations. Remarkably, closed analytical expressions for the anomalous Hall conductivity and macroscopic magnetization are obtained for the interacting many-body case.

Quantum Electrodynamics of graphene Landau levels in a deep-subwavelength hyperbolic phonon polariton cavity [0.0]
We develop a theoretical framework for the quantum electrodynamics of graphene Landau levels embedded in a deep subwavelength hyperbolic cavity. We discuss the emergence of polaritons, and disentangle the contributions of resonant quantum vacuum effects from those of purely electrostatic interactions.

We develop a general approach to describe the scattering of quantum light by a lossy macroscopic object placed in vacuum. We exploit the input-output relation to connect the output state of the field to the input one. We analyze the impact of the classical transmission and absorption dyadics on the transitions from ingoing to outgoing s-polariton.

The strongly driven Fermi polaron [49.81410781350196]
Quasiparticles are emergent excitations of matter that underlie much of our understanding of quantum many-body systems. We take advantage of the clean setting of homogeneous quantum gases and fast radio-frequency control to manipulate Fermi polarons. We measure the decay rate and the quasiparticle residue of the driven polaron from the Rabi oscillations between the two internal states.

Breakdown of the topological protection by cavity vacuum fields in the integer quantum Hall effect [0.0]
The control of the electronic properties of materials via the vacuum fields of cavity electromagnetic resonators is one of the emerging frontiers of condensed matter physics. We show here that the enhancement of vacuum field fluctuations in subwavelength split-ring resonators dramatically affects arguably one of the most paradigmatic quantum protectorates, namely the quantum Hall electron transport in high-mobility 2D electron gases.

Quantum theory of two-dimensional materials coupled to electromagnetic resonators [0.0]
We present a microscopic quantum theory of light-matter interaction in pristine sheets of two-dimensional semiconductors coupled to localized electromagnetic resonators. The light-matter interaction breaks the translation symmetry of excitons in the two-dimensional lattice, and we find that this symmetry-breaking interaction leads to the formation of a localized exciton state. We quantify the influence of the environment and find that it is most pronounced for small lateral confinement length scales of the electromagnetic field in the resonator.
