Engineering strong p-wave interactions between fermions is one of the challenges in modern quantum physics. Such interactions are responsible for a plethora of fascinating quantum phenomena such as topological quantum liquids and exotic superconductors. In this letter we propose to combine recent developments of nanoplasmonics with the progress in realizing laser-induced gauge fields. Nanoplasmonics allows for strong confinement leading to a geometric resonance in the atom-atom scattering. In combination with the laser-coupling of the atomic states, this is shown to result in the desired interaction. We illustrate how this scheme can be used for the stabilization of strongly correlated fractional quantum Hall states in ultracold fermionic gases.

The highly controllable ultracold atoms in a one-dimensional (1D) trap provide a new platform for the ultimate simulation of quantum magnetism. In this regard, the Neel-antiferromagnetism and the itinerant ferromagnetism are of central importance and great interest. Here we show that these magnetic orders can be achieved in the strongly interacting spin-1/2 trapped Fermi gases with additional p-wave interactions. In this strong coupling limit, the 1D trapped Fermi gas exhibit an effective Heisenberg spin XXZ chain in the anisotropic p-wave scattering channels. For a particular p-wave attraction or repulsion within the same species of fermionic atoms, the system displays ferromagnetic domains with full spin segregation or the anti-ferromagnetic spin configuration in the ground state. Such engineered magnetisms are likely to be probed in a quasi-1D trapped Fermi gas of $^{40}$ K atoms with very close s-wave and p-wave Feshbach resonances.

The length scale separation in dilute quantum gases in quasi-one- or quasi-two-dimensional traps has spatially divided the system into two different regimes. Whereas universal relations defined in strictly one or two dimensions apply in a scale that is much larger than the characteristic length of the transverse confinements, physical observables in the short distances are inevitably governed by three-dimensional contacts. Here, we show that $p$-wave contacts defined in different length scales are intrinsically connected by a universal relation, which depends on a simple geometric factor of the transverse confinements. While this universal relation is derived for one of the $p$-wave contacts, it establishes a concrete example of how dimensional crossover interplays with contacts and universal relations for arbitrary partial wave scatterings.
We consider spin-$1/2$ fermionic atoms whose dynamics are governed by low-energy $P$-wave interactions. These are renormalized within the ladder resummation scheme, and directly expressed as functions of the effective range parameters. Then, we show that, in a large scattering parameter regime, the zero-temperature equation of state exhibits a minimum, indicating the existence of a liquid phase. We also characterize the properties, such as the energy per particle, the compressibility or speed of sound of the liquid at equilibrium. The liquid exists near, but not strictly on, the unitary limit, which suggests the feasibility of realizing ultracold quantum liquids of fermions using $P$-wave Feshbach resonances.
We present a proposal for the realization of entanglement Hamiltonians in one-dimensional critical spin systems with strongly interacting cold atoms. Our approach is based on the notion that the entanglement spectrum of such systems can be realized with a physical Hamiltonian containing a set of position-dependent couplings. We focus on reproducing the universal ratios of the entanglement spectrum for systems in two different geometries: a harmonic trap, which corresponds to a partition embedded in an infinite system, and a linear potential, which reproduces the properties of a half-partition with open boundary conditions. Our results demonstrate the possibility of measuring the entanglement spectra of the Heisenberg and XX models in a realistic cold-atom experimental setting by simply using gravity and standard trapping techniques.
Motivated by the experimental development of quasi-homogeneous Bose-Einstein condensates confined in box-like traps, we study numerically the dynamics of dark solitons in such traps at zero temperature. We consider the cases where the side walls of the box potential rise either as a power-law or a Gaussian. While the soliton propagates through the homogeneous interior of the box without dissipation, it typically dissipates energy during a reflection from a wall through the emission of sound waves, causing a slight increase in the solitons speed. We characterise this energy loss as a function of the wall parameters. Moreover, over multiple oscillations and reflections in the box-like trap, the energy loss and speed increase of the soliton can be significant, although the decay eventually becomes stabilized when the soliton equilibrates with the ambient sound field.
