• Title: Effective theory for matter in non-perturbative cavity QED
• Authors: Juan Rom\'an-Roche and David Zueco
• Abstract summary: We tackle the effects of image charges, the $A2$ term and a multimode arbitrary-geometry cavity. The resulting (non-local) action has the photonic degrees of freedom replaced by an effective position-dependent interaction between the particles. The theory is applicable, beyond cavity QED, to any system where bulk material is linearly coupled to a diagonalizable bosonic bath.

• Abstract: Starting from a general material system of $N$ particles coupled to a cavity, we use a coherent-state path integral formulation to produce a non-perturbative effective theory for the material degrees of freedom. We tackle the effects of image charges, the $A^2$ term and a multimode arbitrary-geometry cavity. The resulting (non-local) action has the photonic degrees of freedom replaced by an effective position-dependent interaction between the particles. In the large-$N$ limit, we discuss how the theory can be cast into an effective Hamiltonian where the cavity induced interactions are made explicit. The theory is applicable, beyond cavity QED, to any system where bulk material is linearly coupled to a diagonalizable bosonic bath. We highlight the differences of the theory with other well-known methods and numerically study its finite-size scaling on the Dicke model. Finally, we showcase its descriptive power with three examples: photon condensation, the 2D free electron gas in a cavity and the modification of magnetic interactions between molecular spins; recovering, condensing and extending some recent results in the literature.

• Cosmic string influence on a 2D hydrogen atom and its relationship with the Rytova-Keldysh logarithmic approximation in semiconductors [0.0]
  A two-dimensional hydrogen atom offers a promising alternative for describing the quantum interaction between an electron and a proton in the presence of a straight cosmic string. We calculate the eigenenergies, probability distribution function, and expected values for the hydrogen atom with logarithmic potential under the influence of the topological defect. Our model leads to an interesting analogy with excitons in a two-dimensional monolayer semiconductor located within a specific semiconductor region.

• Formation of robust bound states of interacting microwave photons [148.37607455646454]
  One of the hallmarks of interacting systems is the formation of multi-particle bound states. We develop a high fidelity parameterizable fSim gate that implements the periodic quantum circuit of the spin-1/2 XXZ model. By placing microwave photons in adjacent qubit sites, we study the propagation of these excitations and observe their bound nature for up to 5 photons.

  We study the physics of a magnetic molecule described by a "giant" spin with multiple $d > 2$ spin states. We derive an expression for the output modes in the dispersive regime of operation. We find that the measurement of the cavity transmission allows to uniquely determine the spin state of the qudits.
