• Abstract summary: Chiral spin liquids (CSLs) are exotic phases of interacting spins in two dimensions, characterized by long-range entanglement and fractional excitations. We construct a local Hamiltonian on the triangular lattice that stabilizes the Kalmeyer-Laughlin CSL without requiring fine-tuning. Our approach employs coupled-wire constructions and introduces a lattice duality to construct a solvable sliding Luttinger liquid, which is driven towards the CSL phase by generic perturbations.

• Abstract: Chiral spin liquids (CSLs) are exotic phases of interacting spins in two dimensions, characterized by long-range entanglement and fractional excitations. We construct a local Hamiltonian on the triangular lattice that stabilizes the Kalmeyer-Laughlin CSL without requiring fine-tuning. Our approach employs coupled-wire constructions and introduces a lattice duality to construct a solvable chiral sliding Luttinger liquid, which is driven towards the CSL phase by generic perturbations. By combining symmetry analysis and bosonization, we make sharp predictions for the ground states on quasi-one-dimensional cylinders and tori, which exhibit a four-fold periodicity in the circumference. Extensive tensor network simulations demonstrating ground state degeneracies, fractional quasi-particles, non-vanishing long-range order parameters, and entanglement signatures confirm the emergence of the CSL in the lattice Hamiltonian.

  An effective U($1$) gauge flux generated by Raman potentials plays a major role in realizing the CSL phase. By spinon mean-field analysis it is shown that CSL phase is stabilized in the case of strong magnetic frustration.

• Structural phase transition and its critical dynamics from holography [0.0]
  We introduce a gravitational lattice theory defined in an AdS$_3$ black hole background that provides a holographic dual description of the linear-to-zigzag structural phase transition. The transition from the high-symmetry linear phase to the broken-symmetry doubly-degenerate phase can be driven by quenching the coupling between adjacent sites through the critical point. An analysis of the equilibrium correlation length and relaxation time reveals mean-field critical exponents.

• Trimer quantum spin liquid in a honeycomb array of Rydberg atoms [0.0]
  We show the concrete realization of a fundamentally different class of spin liquids in a honeycomb array of Rydberg atoms. In the regime where third-nearest-neighbor atoms lie within the Rydberg blockade, we find a novel ground state. The fidelity of this trimer spin liquid state can be enhanced via dynamical preparation.

  We show that introduction of harmonic and spin-dependent linear potentials sufficiently validates fTWA for longer times. In particular, we focus on a finite two-dimensional system and show that at intermediate linear potential strength, the addition of a harmonic potential and spin dependence of the tilt, results in subdiffusive dynamics.

• Phase diagram of Rydberg-dressed atoms on two-leg triangular ladders [50.591267188664666]
  We investigate the phase diagram of hard-core bosons in a triangular ladder with next-to-nearest-neighbor interaction along each leg. For weak interactions, Abelian bosonization predicts a spin density wave and a fully gapless Luttinger liquid phase. The competition with the zigzag interaction generates a charge density wave, a 'polarized holonic' phase, and a crystalline phase at the filling 2/5.

  We investigate the phase diagram of hard-core bosons in two-leg ladders in the presence of soft-shoulder potentials. We show how the competition between local and non-local terms gives rise to a phase diagram with liquid phases with dominant cluster, spin, and density-wave quasi-long-range ordering.

  We show that spin-orbit coupled Bose gases in a one-dimensional optical lattice can be mapped into a two-leg triangular ladder with staggered flux. We identify a certain regime of parameters where a hard-core boson approximation holds and the system realizes a frustrated triangular spin ladder with tunable flux.
