• Authors: Chang-Hwan Yi, Barbara Dietz, Jae-Ho Han, Jung-Wan Ryu,
• Abstract summary: We show that certain decay rates form sequential separate branches with increasing wavenumber that eventually merge into smooth curves. Our findings show that these decay rates gradually resolve the structure of the islands in mixed phase space as we approach the short-wavelength limit.

• Abstract: We explore the decay rates of optical modes in asymmetric microcavities with mixed phase space across a wide range of wavelengths that extend deep into the semiclassical, i.e., short-wavelength limit. Implementing an efficient numerical method, we computed 1000000 eigenmodes and discovered that certain decay rates form sequential separate branches with increasing wavenumber that eventually merge into smooth curves. The analysis of the localization properties and Husimi distributions reveals that each branch corresponds to a periodic orbit in the closed classical system. Our findings show that these decay rates gradually resolve the structure of the islands in mixed phase space as we approach the short-wavelength limit. We present an effective semiclassical model incorporating wavenumber-dependent localization, Fresnel reflection, and the Goos-Haenchen shift and demonstrate that these effects are crucial in accounting for the observed branches of decay rate curves.

As the experimental system sizes increase, we show that the wave vectors approach a continuum of values incommensurate with the lattice.

  We study the manipulation of Majorana zero modes in a thin disk made from a $p$-wave superconductor. We analyze the second-order topological corner modes that arise when an in-plane magnetic field is applied. We show that oscillations persist even in the adiabatic phase because of a frequency independent coupling between zero modes and excited states.

• Supersolid-Superfluid phase separation in the extended Bose-Hubbard model [0.0]
  We show that this new phase is phase-separated into a supersolid and superfluid part, generated by mechanical instability. In particular, we demonstrate that the elementary excitations of the homogeneous superfluid with enhanced periodic modulations are phonons. This suggests that the low-energy spectrum of the phase under investigation is effectively captured by a spinless Luttinger liquid.

  Granulation of quantum matter -- the formation of persistent small-scale patterns -- is realized in the images of Bose-Einstein condensates. Our present analysis of a mean-field approximation suggests that granulation is caused by the gradual transformation of phase undulations into density undulations.
