Nonlinear caging in all-bands-flat lattices

چکیده
We study the impact of classical short-range nonlinear interactions on transport in lattices with no dispersion. The single particle band structure these contains flat bands only, and cages non-interacting particles into compact localized eigenstates. demonstrate that there always exist local unitary transformations detangle such decoupled sites dimension one. Starting from a detangled representation, inverting detangling entangling extending to higher lattice dimensions, we arrive at an All-Bands-Flat generator for states any dimension. are parametrized by sets angles. For given member set all-bands-flat, additional destroy caging general, induce transport. However, fine-tuned subsets allow completely restore caging. derive necessary sufficient fine-tuning conditions caging, provide computational evidence our conclusions one-dimensional systems.

Soliton complexes and flat-top nonlinear modes in optical lattices
We describe a continuous analog of the quasirectangular flat-top nonlinear modes earlier found for discrete nonlinear models. We show that these novel nonlinear modes can be understood as multi-soliton complexes with either in-phase or out-of-phase neighboring solitons trapped by the periodic potential of the lattice. We demonstrate a link between the flat-top states and the truncated nonlinear...
متن کاملBose-Einstein condensates in spin-orbit-coupled optical lattices: Flat bands and superfluidity
Recently spin-orbit (SO)-coupled superfluids in free space or harmonic traps have been extensively studied, motivated by the recent experimental realization of SO coupling for Bose-Einstein condensates (BEC). However, the rich physics of SO-coupled BEC in optical lattices has been largely unexplored. In this paper, we show that in a suitable parameter region the lowest Bloch state forms an isol...
متن کاملSuperfluidity in topologically nontrivial flat bands.
Topological invariants built from the periodic Bloch functions characterize new phases of matter, such as topological insulators and topological superconductors. The most important topological invariant is the Chern number that explains the quantized conductance of the quantum Hall effect. Here we provide a general result for the superfluid weight Ds of a multiband superconductor that is applic...
متن کاملTopological flat bands from dipolar spin systems.
We propose and analyze a physical system that naturally admits two-dimensional topological nearly flat bands. Our approach utilizes an array of three-level dipoles (effective S=1 spins) driven by inhomogeneous electromagnetic fields. The dipolar interactions produce arbitrary uniform background gauge fields for an effective collection of conserved hard-core bosons, namely, the dressed spin flip...
متن کاملFlat bands and Wigner crystallization in the honeycomb optical lattice.
We study the ground states of cold atoms in the tight-binding bands built from p orbitals on a two dimensional honeycomb optical lattice. The band structure includes two completely flat bands. Exact many-body ground states with on-site repulsion can be found at low particle densities, for both fermions and bosons. We find crystalline order at n=1/6 with a sqrt[3] x sqrt[3] structure breaking a ...
