• Abstract: We develop a new theoretical framework for describing light-matter interactions in cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED), optimized for efficient convergence at arbitrarily strong coupling strengths and is naturally applicable to low-dimensional materials. This new Hamiltonian is obtained by applying a unitary gauge transformation on the p$\cdot$A Hamiltonian, with a shift on both the matter coordinate and the photonic coordinate, then performing a phase rotation and transforming in the reciprocal space of the matter. By formulating the light-matter interaction in terms of an upper-bounded effective coupling parameter, this method allows one to easily converge eigenspectra calculations for any coupling strength, even far into the ultra-strong and deep-strong coupling regimes. We refer to this new approach as the Reciprocal Asymptotically Decoupled (RAD) Hamiltonian. The RAD Hamiltonian allows for a fast convergence of the polariton eigenspectrum with a much smaller matter and photon basis, compared to the commonly used p$\cdot$A or dipole gauge Hamiltonians. The RAD Hamiltonian also allows one to go beyond the commonly used long-wavelength approximation and accurately describes the spatial variations of the field inside the cavity, which ensures the conservation of momentum between light and matter.

  We study theoretically an array of two-level qubits moving relative to a one-dimensional waveguide. When the frequency of this motion approaches twice the qubit resonance frequency, it induces parametric generation of photons and excitation of the qubits. We develop a comprehensive general theoretical framework that incorporates both perturbative diagrammatic techniques and a rigorous master-equation approach.

  We show that the simplest set-up of two qubits, harmonically trapped over an optical waveguide, enables the ultrastrong coupling regime of the quantum optomechanical interaction. The combination of the inherent open nature of the system and the strong optomechanical coupling leads to emerging parity-time (PT) symmetry. The $mathcalPT$ phase transition drives long-living subradiant states, observable in the state-of-the-art waveguide QED setups.
