• Abstract summary: A three-level system exhibiting electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) exhibits an effective conjugation symmetry as well as a permutation symmetry. Breaking conjugation symmetry leads to a distinct chirp asymmetry; the differential response to a frequency increase versus a frequency decrease. We describe the theory and compare it to an experiment using 87Rb in a buffer gas cell.

• Abstract: The simplest three-level system exhibiting electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) exhibits an effective conjugation symmetry as well as a permutation symmetry. Breaking conjugation symmetry leads to a distinct chirp asymmetry; the differential response to a frequency increase versus a frequency decrease. Hanle-Zeeman EIT resonance is an ideal platform for testing the theory of chirp asymmetry because so many optical parameters of the system can be changed experimentally. We describe the theory and compare it to an experiment using 87Rb in a buffer gas cell. In contrast with earlier multi-photon chirp asymmetry work this present effort explores the asymmetry at nearly one billionth the earlier chirp rate, yet displays its universal features. Chirp asymmetry may have metrological consequences for understanding systematic dependence on modulation/demodulation parameters.

  We show that strong symmetry always spontaneously breaks into the corresponding weak symmetry. We conjecture that this relation among strong-to-weak symmetry breaking, gapless modes, and symmetry-charge diffusion is general for continuous symmetries.

  We show that time-asymmetries in the cross-correlations of photons corresponding to different polarizations can be exploited to probe quantum coherent transport mechanisms and steady-state coherence properties. Our results put forward photon correlation asymmetry as a promising approach to investigate coherent contributions to excited-stated dynamics in molecular aggregates and other many-site quantum emitters.

  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 propose a theoretical scheme in a cold Rubidium-87 ($87$Rb) atomic ensemble with a non-Hermitian optical structure. A lopsided optical diffraction grating can be realized just with the combination of single spatially periodic modulation and loop-phase. Our work will benefit the development of versatile non-Hermitian/asymmetric optical devices.

  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.

  We investigate, in a four photon interference experiment in a laser-written waveguide structure, how symmetries control the suppression of many-body output events of a $J_x$ unitary. We show that totally destructive interference does not require mutual indistinguishability between all, but only between symmetrically paired particles.
