Exciton condensate is a vast playground in studying a number of symmetries that are of high interest in the recent developments in topological condensed matter physics. In DQWs they pose highly nonconventional properties due to the pairing of non identical fermions with a spin dependent order parameter. Here, we demonstrate a new feature in these systems: the robustness of the ground state to weak external B-field and the appearance of the artificial spinor gauge fields beyond a critical field strength where, negative energy pair-breaking quasi particle excitations are created in certain $k$ regions (DX-pockets). The DX-pockets are the Kramers symmetry broken analogs of the negative energy pockets examined in the 60s by Sarma, where they principally differ from the latter in their non-degenerate energy bands due to the absence of the time reversal symmetry. They respect a disk or a shell-topology in $k$-space or a mixture between them depending on the B-field strength and the electron-hole mismatch. The Berry connection between the artificial flux and the TKNN number is made. The artificial spinor gauge field describes a collection of pure spin vortices in real space when the B-field has only inplane components.

Graphene SU(4) quantum Hall symmetry is extended to SO(8), permitting analytical solutions for graphene in a magnetic field that break SU(4) spontaneously. We recover standard graphene SU(4) physics as one limit, but find new phases and new properties that may be relevant for understanding the ground state. The graphene SO(8) symmetry is found to be isomorphic to one that occurs extensively in nuclear structure physics, and very similar to one that describes high-temperature superconductors, suggesting deep mathematical connections among these physically-different fermionic systems.
We propose a projector-based renormalization framework to study exciton-polariton Bose-Einstein condensation in a microcavity matter-light system. Treating Coulomb interaction and electron-hole/photon coupling effects on an equal footing we analyze the ground-state properties of the exciton polariton model according to the detuning and the excitation density. We demonstrate that the condensate by its nature shows a crossover from an excitonic insulator (of Bose-Einstein respectively BCS type) to a polariton and finally photonic condensed state as the excitation density increases at large detuning. If the detuning is weak polariton or photonic phases dominate. While in both cases a notable renormalization of the quasiparticle band structure occurs that strongly affects the coherent part of the excitonic luminescence, the incoherent wavevector-resolved luminescence spectrum develops a flat bottom only for small detuning.
Collective (elementary) excitations of quantum bosonic condensates, including condensates of exciton polaritons in semiconductor microcavities, are a sensitive probe of interparticle interactions. In anisotropic microcavities with momentum-dependent TE-TM splitting of the optical modes, the excitations dispersions are predicted to be strongly anisotropic, which is a consequence of the synthetic magnetic gauge field of the cavity, as well as the interplay between different interaction strengths for polaritons in the singlet and triplet spin configurations. Here, by directly measuring the dispersion of the collective excitations in a high-density optically trapped exciton-polariton condensate, we observe excellent agreement with the theoretical predictions for spinor polariton excitations. We extract the inter- and intra-spin polariton interaction constants and map out the characteristic spin textures in an interacting spinor condensate of exciton polaritons.

We present zero field muon spin lattice relaxation measurements of a Dysprosium triangle molecular magnet. The local magnetic fields sensed by the implanted muons indicate the coexistence of static and dynamic internal magnetic fields below $T^* ~35$ K. Bulk magnetization and heat capacity measurements show no indication of magnetic ordering below this temperature. We attribute the static fields to the slow relaxation of the magnetization in the ground state of Dy3. The fluctuation time of the dynamic part of the field is estimated to be ~0.55 $mu$s at low temperatures
We propose a novel realization of Kondo physics with ultracold atomic gases. It is based on a Fermi sea of two different hyperfine states of one atom species forming bound states with a different species, which is spatially confined in a trapping potential. We show that different situations displaying Kondo physics can be realized when Feshbach resonances between the species are tuned by a magnetic field and the trapping frequency is varied. We illustrate that a mixture of ${}^{40}$K and ${}^{23}$Na atoms can be used to generate a Kondo correlated state and that momentum resolved radio frequency spectroscopy can provide unambiguous signatures of the formation of Kondo resonances at the Fermi energy. We discuss how tools of atomic physics can be used to investigate open questions for Kondo physics, such as the extension of the Kondo screening cloud.
