• Abstract: Excitons in low-dimensional materials behave mathematically as confined hydrogen atoms. An appealing unified description of confinement in quantum wells or wires, etc., is found by restricting space to a fractional dimension 1 < D <= 3 serving as an adjustable parameter. We compute the dynamic polarizability of D-dimensional excitons in terms of discrete and continuum oscillator strengths. Analyzing exact sum rules, we show that continuum contributions are increasingly important in low dimensions. The dynamical responses of excitons in various dimensions are compared. Finally, an exact and compact closed-form expression for the dynamic polarizability is found. This completely general formula takes D as input and provides exact results for arbitrary frequency.

  We show that optical spectroscopy can experimentally identify phase-trapped and phase-delocalized dynamical regimes of condensation. In the weak-bias regime, the trapped dynamics of the order parameter's phase lead to an in-gap absorption line at a frequency almost independent of the bias voltage. Close to the transition between the trapped and freely oscillating states, we find a strong response upon application of a weak electric probe field.

  This equation represents a novel discrete system in which the nearest-neighbor coupling is combined with long-range interactions. The dispersion relation for lattice waves and the corresponding propagation band in the system's linear spectrum are found in an exact form for all values of LI. Formation of single-site and two-site discrete solitons is explored, starting from the anti-continuum limit. Mobility of the discrete solitons is considered too, by means of an estimate of the system's Peierls-Nabarro potential barrier.

  We study the dynamics of an impurity allowed to freely move through a subwavelength array of atoms. We find that the impurity can maintain quasi-stable orbits within the plaquette for long times. As a final point of analysis, we also take the motional degrees of freedom of the lattice atoms into account, and study the polaron-like excitation induced in the kinetic state of the lattice by the impurity.

  We study the melting of charge-density waves in a Holstein model after a sudden switch-on of the electronic hopping. A comparison with exact data obtained for a Holstein chain shows that a semiclassical treatment of both the electrons and phonons is required in order to correctly describe the phononic dynamics.

• Dimensional Reduction in Quantum Optics [0.0]
  One-dimensional quantum optical models usually rest on the intuition of large scale separation or frozen dynamics associated with the different spatial dimensions. We show how the quantized electromagnetic field can be decomposed $-$ exactly $-$ into an infinite number of subfields living on a lower dimensional subspace. The dimensional reduction approximation then corresponds to a truncation in the number of such subfields that in turn, when considering the interaction with for instance an atom, corresponds to a modification to the atomic spatial profile.
