- Abstract summary: We investigate the nonlinear refraction induced by Rydberg excitons in $mathrmCuO$.
We observe significant shifts at extremely low laser intensity near each exciton resonance.
We explain this with the Rydberg mechanism, whereby giant Rydberg interactions limit the exciton density.

- Abstract: We investigate the nonlinear refraction induced by Rydberg excitons in
$\mathrm{Cu_2O}$. Using a high-precision interferometry imaging technique that
spatially resolves the nonlinear phase shift, we observe significant shifts at
extremely low laser intensity near each exciton resonance. From this, we derive
the nonlinear index $\mathrm{n_2}$, present the $\mathrm{n_2}$ spectrum for
$n\geq 5$ and report large $\mathrm{n_2}$ values of order $10^{-3}$ mm$^2$/mW.
Moreover, we observe a rapid saturation of the Kerr nonlinearity and find that
the saturation intensity $\mathrm{I_{sat}}$ decreases as $n^{-7}$. We explain
this with the Rydberg blockade mechanism, whereby giant Rydberg interactions
limit the exciton density, resulting in a maximum phase shift of 0.5 rad in our
setup.

Compressed Sensing [68.80803866919123]
Under nonlinear measurements, most prior results are non-uniform, i.e., they hold with high probability for a fixed $mathbfx*$ rather than for all $mathbfx*$ simultaneously.
Our framework accommodates GCS with 1-bit/uniformly quantized observations and single index models as canonical examples.
We also develop a concentration inequality that produces tighter bounds for product processes whose index sets have low metric entropy.

Quantum Fisher information (QFI) is a witness of multipartite entanglement, and magnetic Van Hove correlations $G(r,t)$, a probe of local real-space real-time spin dynamics.
We show that QFI grows with $U$ and can witness bipartite entanglement above $U=2.5$.
We discuss experimental candidates for observing the $G(r,t)$ dynamics found at low $U$.
