• Abstract summary: We compute the phase diagram of a system of ultracold atoms (or polar molecules) with a set of Rydberg states as a synthetic dimension. For system sizes with more than six synthetic sites and attractive interactions, we find that the thermal transitions can be first or second order. By examining the dependence of the tri-critical point and other special points of the phase boundary on the synthetic dimension size, we shed light on the physics for thermodynamically large synthetic dimension.

• Abstract: Synthetic dimension platforms offer unique pathways for engineering quantum matter. We compute the phase diagram of a many-body system of ultracold atoms (or polar molecules) with a set of Rydberg states (or rotational states) as a synthetic dimension, where the particles are arranged in real space in optical microtrap arrays and interact via dipole-dipole exchange interaction. Using mean-field theory, we find three ordered phases - two are localized in the synthetic dimension, predicted as zero-temperature ground states in Refs. [Sci. Rep., 8, 1 (2018) and Phys. Rev. A 99, 013624 (2019)], and a delocalized phase. We characterize them by identifying the spontaneously broken discrete symmetries of the Hamiltonian. We also compute the phase diagram as a function of temperature and interaction strength, for both signs of the interaction. For system sizes with more than six synthetic sites and attractive interactions, we find that the thermal phase transitions can be first or second order, which leads to a tri-critical point on the phase boundary. By examining the dependence of the tri-critical point and other special points of the phase boundary on the synthetic dimension size, we shed light on the physics for thermodynamically large synthetic dimension.

  Phase and amplitude modes are emergent phenomena that manifest across diverse physical systems. We study their behavior in an anisotropic Dicke model that includes collective matter interactions.

  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.
