Summary: In this study, we investigate the magnetic excitations of the antiferromagnetic XXZ model on a two-dimensional triangular lattice and discover the magnon valley thermal Hall effect. We demonstrate that the valley thermal Hall conductivity complies with the universal behavior proposed by Yang et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 124, 186602 (2020)]. Additionally, we analyze the low-energy effective theory near the valleys and find that although the dynamic matrix is non-Hermitian, the Berry curvatures are primarily determined by its Hermitian part. Moreover, our results are shown to hold generality to some extent in the Y phase of the triangular lattice. By calculating with experimental parameters, we identify Rb4Mn(MoO4)(3) as a suitable material for realizing the magnon valley thermal Hall effect.

Summary: We study the behavior of a single magnon excitation in a quantum Heisenberg model subjected to lattice vibrations. The Heisenberg spins are arranged in a nonlinear Morse chain with distance-dependent coupling. By numerically solving the time evolution, we explore the relationship between the magnon velocity and the spin-lattice coupling. Our findings reveal that the lattice deformation captures a significant fraction of the spin wave function, leading to a mobile magnon-lattice excitation under strong spin-lattice coupling. Additionally, we investigate the lattice deformation and magnon wave functions independently and observe solitonic characteristics in both spatial profiles.

Summary: In this study, a spin-1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet on the triangular lattice was discussed using the bond-operator technique (BOT). It was found that high-energy collective excitations and another high-energy quasiparticle exist in the system. Quantum fluctuations considerably alter the properties of conventional magnons, and the anomalous spin dynamics observed experimentally recently cannot be described by SWT.

Summary: We studied the anomalous Hall effect on the antiferromagnetic coloring-triangular lattice with spin-orbit interaction. Our results show that a finite Hall conductivity occurs in the planar 120° structure with finite spin-orbit coupling, and a quantized Hall conductivity appears at global band gaps resulting from a topologically nontrivial band structure.

Summary: We demonstrate the close proximity of the delafossite material KYbSe2 to the triangular-lattice Heisenberg quantum spin liquid. Using neutron scattering, we identify multipartite entanglement and analyze the magnetic-exchange couplings to confirm its proximity to the theoretical quantum spin-liquid phase. The experimental results are consistent with theoretical models, and a second-order quantum phase transition is observed.

Summary: We demonstrate the spontaneous generation of spatially-periodic supersolid-like super-lattice and stripe solitons in Rashba spin-orbit coupled spin-1 and spin-2 quasi-two-dimensional nonmagnetic Bose-Einstein condensates. The solitons in a weakly spin-orbit coupled spin-1 condensate are circularly-symmetric with inherent vorticity, while the solitons in an spin-orbit coupled spin-2 condensate have multiple types of circularly-symmetric shapes and can acquire a multiring structure with stronger coupling strengths. Additionally, quasi-degenerate stripe and super-lattice solitons emerge as excited stationary states for stronger spin-orbit coupling strengths.

Summary: Skyrmions are considered as the potential future of data storage due to their topologically protected spin structures. Antiferromagnetic skyrmions, consisting of two ferromagnetic solitons coupled antiferromagnetically, are predicted to have zero Magnus force, making them promising candidates for spintronic devices.

Summary: We study quantum condensed matter systems where particle number is not conserved, leading to topological anticrossings in the spectrum due to hybridization of states from different particle-number sectors. This phenomenon is observed in fully saturated spin-anisotropic quantum magnets, where single magnons hybridize with magnon bound pairs. The resulting chiral edge excitations are composite particles with mixed spin-multipolar character, showing genuine quantum mechanical effects that vanish in the classical limit. These findings have implications for intrinsic anomalous Hall-type transport, suggesting that fully polarized quantum magnets can serve as a promising platform for studying topological effects caused by hybridizations between particle-number sectors.

Summary: We study the entanglement content of magnon excited states in integrable spin chains and classify it in the scaling limit. We find that when the number of excited magnons is small compared to the system size, the entanglement content can be decomposed into the sum of entanglement of particular excited states in free fermionic or bosonic theories. We also conjecture a classification of the entanglement content of translational invariant free fermionic and bosonic Hamiltonians based on the entanglement content of fermionic and bosonic chains with the number operator as the Hamiltonian.

Summary: By calculating its Berry curvature, Chern number, and edge states, we present the topology of magnons on the triangular kagome lattice (TKL). In addition to the ferromagnetic state, the TKL also hosts a ferrimagnetic ground state. Using Holstein-Primakoff boson theory and Green's function approach, we find that the TKL has a rich topological band structure compared with the kagome and honeycomb lattices. The magnon edge current allows for the calculation of thermal Hall coefficients and the orbital angular momentum correlates with the Einstein-de Haas effect.

Summary: We studied three-component SU(3) Fermi gases in a square optical lattice with population imbalance between one component and the others. At strong coupling, the system can be described by the SU(3) Heisenberg model with an external field coupling to the population imbalance. We discussed the ground state at the mean-field level and analyzed the thermal fluctuations using the semiclassical Monte Carlo method. The interplay between interactions, population imbalance, and thermal fluctuations leads to a phase transition related to the breaking of an emergent Ising symmetry, even in the absence of frustration. Possible implementations using cold alkaline-earth(-like) atoms are also discussed.

Summary: It has been discovered that noise correlations measured by time-of-flight imaging in cold-atom experiments can probe the spin structure factor in the Mott-insulating regime of SU(2) Hubbard models. In this study, the mathematical relation between noise correlations and spin structure factor in the strong-interaction limit of SU(N) Hubbard models at any integer filling was derived. Numerical calculations based on the ground states of one-dimensional SU(N) Fermi-Hubbard models for 2≤N≤6 using the density-matrix renormalization-group method confirmed this relation in the regime of strong interactions. It was shown that the deviation between actual noise correlations and those obtained from the spin structure factor scaled as (t/U)^2 for rho = 1 at intermediate and large lattice sizes.

Summary: We investigate the time-dependent Renyi entanglement entropy after a quantum quench starting from the Mott-insulating and charge-density-wave states in a one-dimensional free boson system. The second Renyi entanglement entropy is found to be the negative of the logarithm of the permanent of a matrix consisting of timedependent single-particle correlation functions. From this relation and a permanent inequality, we obtain rigorous conditions for satisfying the volume-law entanglement growth. We also succeed in calculating the time evolution of the Renyi entanglement entropy in extremely large systems by brute-force computations of the permanent. We discuss possible applications of our findings to the real-time dynamics of noninteracting bosonic systems.

Summary: We investigate the sampling efficiency for simulating quantum many-body systems at finite temperatures using initial sampling states generated by applying Trotter gates to random phase product states (RPPSs). The number of Trotter gate applications is proportional to the system size, making the preparation easily achievable in fault-tolerant quantum computers. When the Trotter gates are made from a nonintegrable Hamiltonian, we observe an increase in sampling efficiency with system size, indicating that almost ideal sampling of initial states can be achieved in sufficiently large systems. We also find that the sampling efficiency is comparable to that obtained by a thermal pure quantum (TPQ) state method in some cases, suggesting that chaotic Hamiltonian dynamics can transform RPPSs into an alternative to TPQ states for evaluating thermal expectation values.

Summary: The ground-state phase diagram of the one-dimensional attractive Fermi-Hubbard model with spin-dependent hoppings and an on-site Rabi coupling is investigated using the density matrix renormalization group method. It is shown that even in the limit of one component being immobile, the pair superfluidity can be resonantly enhanced when the Rabi coupling is on the order of the interaction strength just before the system starts to strongly polarize. An effective spin-1/2 XXZ model is derived to understand the ground-state properties in the strong attraction limit.

Summary: This study investigates the emergence of supersolid devil's staircases of spin-orbit-coupled bosons loaded in optical lattices. It is found that the spin-orbit coupling generates length scales that are commensurate to the lattice spacing, resulting in devil's staircases of supersolids. Umklapp processes are essential for the existence of commensurate supersolids.

Summary: The study utilizes the SU(3) truncated Wigner approximation to analyze the far-from-equilibrium quantum dynamics of strongly interacting Bose gases in an optical lattice. Comparisons with exact computations show that both the SU(3) TWA and Gaussian approximation can quantitatively capture quantum dynamics on a specific timescale. However, noticeable deviations between theories and experiments indicate the need for proper consideration of the effects of spatial inhomogeneity.
