• Abstract: We find the single exciton's fine structure splitting (FSS), which splits its degenerate ground state manifold into singlets, nearly vanishes in highly asymmetric quantum dots due to the cancellation of splitting effects with markedly different origin. The dots simulated are those that emerge on top of etch pits through the droplet epitaxy growth process; these etch pit dots break square ($C_{4v}$) spatial symmetry, which has been previously associated with small FSS. Configuration interaction calculations predict a vanishing FSS at a specific finite etch pit displacement from the center of the dot, for a structure far from square symmetry. We thus predict that highly asymmetric quantum dots may still display negligible fine structure splitting, providing new avenues for high-fidelity generation of indistinguishable, polarization entangled photon pairs on demand.

  We show a frustration-free lattice model exhibiting SSB of a non-onsite symmetry. We analytically prove the two-fold ground-state degeneracy and the existence of a finite energy gap. Our work reveals the exotic features of SSB of non-onsite symmetries, which may lie beyond the framework of topological holography.

• Entanglement asymmetry and quantum Mpemba effect in two-dimensional free-fermion systems [0.0]
  The quantum Mpemba effect is the counter-intuitive non-equilibrium phenomenon wherein the dynamic restoration of a broken symmetry occurs more rapidly when the initial state exhibits a higher degree of symmetry breaking. Here we focus on a two-dimensional free-fermion lattice employing the entanglement asymmetry as a measure of symmetry breaking. We find that the quantum Mpemba effect is strongly affected by the size of the system in the transverse dimension, with the potential to either enhance or spoil the phenomenon depending on the initial states.

  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.

  Inherent symmetry of a quantum system may protect its otherwise fragile states. We implement the one-dimensional kicked Ising model which exhibits non-local Majorana edge modes (MEMs) with $mathbbZ$ parity symmetry. MEMs are found to be resilient against certain symmetry-breaking noise owing to a prethermalization mechanism.

It is also found that gradients of ion temperature and density can destabilize the ion cyclotron waves when PT symmetry is explicitly broken by a finite collisionality.
