• Abstract: Quantum impurities exhibit fascinating many-body phenomena when the small interacting impurity changes the physics of a large noninteracting environment. The characterisation of such strongly correlated non-perturbative effects is particularly challenging due to the infinite size of the environment, and the inability of local correlators to capture the build-up of long-ranged entanglement in the system. Here, we harness an entanglement-based observable - the purity of the impurity - as a witness for the formation of strong correlations. We showcase the utility of our scheme by exactly solving the open Kondo box model in the small box limit, and thus describe all-electronic dot-cavity devices. Specifically, we conclusively characterise the metal-to-insulator phase transition in the system and identify how the (conducting) dot-lead Kondo singlet is quenched by an (insulating) intra-impurity singlet formation. Furthermore, we propose an experimentally feasible tomography protocol for the measurement of the purity, which motivates the observation of impurity physics through their entanglement build-up.

  We study a dense ensemble illuminated by a strong coherent drive while interacting via dipole-dipole interactions. Although the steady-state features some similarities to the reported superradiant to normal non-induced transition, we observe significant qualitative and quantitative differences. We develop a simple theoretical model that explains the scaling properties by accounting for interaction-equilibrium inhomogeneous effects and spontaneous emission.

  We introduce artificial lattices made of lead halide perovskite nanocubes as a new platform to simulate and investigate the physics of correlated quantum materials. We show that, at large photo-doping, the exciton gas undergoes an excitonic Mott transition, which fully realizes the magnetic-field-driven insulator-to-metal transition described by the Hubbard model. Our results demonstrate that time-resolved experiments span a parameter region of the Hubbard model in which long-range and phase-coherent orders emerge out of a doped Mott insulating phase.

  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.

• Synthetic Flux Attachment [0.0]
  Topological field theories emerge at low energy in strongly-correlated condensed matter systems. In particular, the study of Chern-Simons terms gives rise to the concept of flux attachment when the gauge field is coupled to matter.

  Quantum Hall systems are characterized by the quantization of the Hall conductance -- a bulk property rooted in the topological structure of the underlying quantum states. Here, we realize a quantum Hall system using ultracold dysprosium atoms, in a two-dimensional geometry formed by one spatial dimension. We demonstrate that the large number of magnetic sublevels leads to distinct bulk and edge behaviors.
