• Abstract: We consider a quantum droplet which is confined in a ring potential. We investigate the so-called "yrast" state, i.e., the lowest-energy state of the droplet assuming that it has some fixed expectation value of the angular momentum. Two are the most interesting aspects of this problem, the nonlinear term -- which is partly attractive and partly repulsive -- and the periodic boundary conditions. For some range of the parameters, the attractive, or the repulsive part of the nonlinear term dominates and one gets the expected behavior. In some intermediate regime the two nonlinear terms are of comparable size. In this case both the solution, as well as the corresponding dispersion relation show an interesting behavior. Finally, we make contact with the problem of solitary-wave excitation, since the derived solutions are travelling-wave, i.e., solitary-wave, solutions.

  interplay between symmetries and entanglement in out-of-equilibrium quantum systems is currently at the centre of an intense multidisciplinary research effort. We show that one can introduce a class of solvable states, which extends that of generic dual unitary circuits. In contrast to the known class of solvable states, which relax to the infinite temperature state, these states relax to a family of non-trivial generalised Gibbs ensembles.

  We present the main properties of the so called ''abnormal solutions'' of the Wick-Cutkosky model. These solutions do not exist in the non-relativistic limit, in spite of having very small binding energies. We determine under which conditions is it possible to obtain such peculiar solutions without spoiling the model by tachyonic states.

  We study a setting with no potentials, where scattering occurs off a junction where many wires meet. When an incoming wave scatters, one part is reflected along the same wire while the rest is transmitted along the others. We verify our analytic results by simulating wavepacket motion through a junction.

  We report on experiments using the D-Wave 2000Q device. We concentrate on the total and partial success probabilities, the latter being the probabilities of finding each of two degenerate ground states of all spins up or all spins down. Our results present a challenge to the sufficiency of the weak system-bath coupling limit in describing the dynamics of current experimental quantum annealers.

  How a finite-temperature environment can localize wave functions is still being debated. We represent the environment by a fluctuating potential and investigate different unravellings of the Lindblad equation. We conclude that as long as no feedback between the wave function and the environment is taken into account, there will be no unique description of an open quantum system in terms of wave functions.

  We show that the Zitterbewegung effect manifests itself as a series of quantum beats of the particle density in the long-time limit. We also find a time-domain where the particle density of the point source is governed by the propagation of a main wavefront. The relative positions of these wavefronts are used to investigate the time-delay of quantum waves in the Klein-tunneling regime.
