• Abstract: We consider interacting bosonic particles on a two-leg triangular ladder in the presence of an artificial gauge field. We employ density matrix renormalization group numerical simulations and analytical bosonization calculations to study the rich phase diagram of this system. We show that the interplay between the frustration induced by the triangular lattice geometry and the interactions gives rise to multiple chiral quantum phases. Phase transition between superfluid to Mott-insulating states occur, which can have Meissner or vortex character. Furthermore, a state that explicitly breaks the symmetry between the two legs of the ladder, the biased chiral superfluid, is found for values of the flux close to $\pi$. In the regime of hardcore bosons, we show that the extension of the bond order insulator beyond the case of the fully frustrated ladder exhibits Meissner-type chiral currents. We discuss the consequences of our findings for experiments in cold atomic systems.

  We experimentally observe the emergence of the quantum floating phase in 92 neutral-atom qubits. The site-resolved measurement reveals the formation of domain walls within the commensurate ordered phase. As the experimental system sizes increase, we show that the wave vectors approach a continuum of values incommensurate with the lattice.

  We consider a system of interacting spinless fermions on a two-leg triangular ladder with $pi/2$ magnetic flux per triangular plaquette. Microscopically, the system exhibits a U(1) symmetry corresponding to the conservation of total fermionic charge, and a discrete $mathbbZ$ symmetry. At the intersection of the three phases, the system features a critical point with an emergent SU(2) symmetry.

  We investigate the phase diagram of hard-core bosons in a triangular ladder with next-to-nearest-neighbor interaction along each leg. For weak interactions, Abelian bosonization predicts a spin density wave and a fully gapless Luttinger liquid phase. The competition with the zigzag interaction generates a charge density wave, a 'polarized holonic' phase, and a crystalline phase at the filling 2/5.

  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 show how the competition between local and non-local terms gives rise to a phase diagram with liquid phases with dominant cluster, spin, and density-wave quasi-long-range ordering.
