• Abstract: We study the ground-state phase diagram of the spin-$1/2$ Kitaev-Heisenberg model on the bilayer honeycomb lattice with large-scale tensor network calculations based on the infinite projected entangled pair state technique as well as high-order series expansions. We find that beyond various magnetically ordered phases, including ferromagnetic, zigzag, antiferromagnetic (AFM) and stripy states, two extended quantum spin liquid phases arise in the proximity of the Kitaev limit. While these ordered phases also appear in the monolayer Kitaev-Heisenberg model, our results further show that a valence bond solid state emerges in a relatively narrow range of parameter space between the AFM and stripy phases, which can be adiabatically connected to isolated Heisenberg dimers. Our results highlight the importance of considering interlayer interactions on the emergence of novel quantum phases in the bilayer Kitaev materials.

The site-resolved measurement reveals the formation of domain walls within the commensurate ordered phase. As the experimental system sizes increase, we show that the wave vectors approach a continuum of values incommensurate with the lattice.

  We study finite-temperature phase transitions of quantum phases of dipolar bosons in a two-dimensional optical lattice. We estimate the critical temperature of the staggered superfluid to normal fluid transition and show that this transition is of the Kosterlitz-Thouless type. Our study paves a way to observe novel staggered quantum phases in recent dipolar optical lattice experiments.

  We investigate a realistic scenario for the quantum simulation of such systems using cold Rydberg-dressed atoms in optical lattices.

We furthermore study the stability of the phases with respect to temperature within the mean-field approximation.

  Quantum emitters interacting with photonic band-gap materials lead to the appearance of qubit-photon bound states.

• Quantum phases of Rydberg atoms on a kagome lattice [0.0]
  We analyze the zero-temperature phases of an array of neutral atoms on the kagome lattice, interacting via laser excitation to atomic Rydberg states. Density-matrix renormalization group calculations reveal the presence of a wide variety of complex solid phases with broken lattice symmetries. We identify a novel regime with dense Rydberg excitations that has a large entanglement entropy and no local order parameter associated with lattice symmetries.
