We analyse the Bose-Einstein condensation process and the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless phase transition within the Gross-Pitaevskii model and their interplay with wave turbulence theory. By using numerical experiments we study how the condensate fraction and the first order correlation function behave with respect to the mass, the energy and the size of the system. By relating the free-particle energy to the temperature we are able to estimate the Berezinskii-Kousterlitz-Thouless transition temperature. Below this transition we observe that for a fixed temperature the superfluid fraction appears to be size-independent leading to a power-law dependence of the condensate fraction with respect to the system size.

The superfluid to normal fluid transition of dipolar bosons in two dimensions is studied throughout the whole density range using path integral Monte Carlo simulations and summarized in the phase diagram. While at low densities, we find good agreement with the universal results depending only on the scattering length $a_s$, at moderate and high densities, the transition temperature is strongly affected by interactions and the elementary excitation spectrum. The results are expected to be of relevance to dipolar atomic and molecular systems and indirect excitons in quantum wells.
We study the 2d phase transition of a driven-dissipative system of exciton-polaritons under non-resonant pumping. Stochastic calculations are used to investigate the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless-like phase diagram for experimentally realistic parameters, with a special attention to the non-equilibrium features.
We propose a scaling theory for the many-body localization (MBL) phase transition in one dimension, building on the idea that it proceeds via a quantum avalanche. We argue that the critical properties can be captured at a coarse-grained level by a Kosterlitz-Thouless (KT) renormalization group (RG) flow. On phenomenological grounds, we identify the scaling variables as the density of thermal regions and the lengthscale that controls the decay of typical matrix elements. Within this KT picture, the MBL phase is a line of fixed points that terminates at the delocalization transition. We discuss two possible scenarios distinguished by the distribution of rare, fractal thermal inclusions within the MBL phase. In the first scenario, these regions have a stretched exponential distribution in the MBL phase. In the second scenario, the near-critical MBL phase hosts rare thermal regions that are power-law distributed in size. This points to the existence of a second transition within the MBL phase, at which these power-laws change to the stretched exponential form expected at strong disorder. We numerically simulate two different phenomenological RGs previously proposed to describe the MBL transition. Both RGs display a universal power-law length distribution of thermal regions at the transition with a critical exponent $alpha_c=2$, and continuously varying exponents in the MBL phase consistent with the KT picture.
We have considered two classical lattice-gas models, consisting of particles that carry multicomponent magnetic momenta, and associated with a two-dimensional square lattices; each site can host one particle at most, thus implicitly allowing for hard-core repulsion; the pair interaction, restricted to nearest neighbors, is ferromagnetic and involves only two components. The case of zero chemical potential has been investigated by Grand--Canonical Monte Carlo simulations; the fluctuating occupation numbers now give rise to additional fluid-like observables in comparison with the usual saturated--lattice situation; these were investigated and their possible influence on the critical behaviour was discussed. Our results show that the present model supports a Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless phase transition with a transition temperature lower than that of the saturated lattice counterpart due to the presence of ``vacancies; comparisons were also made with similar models studied in the literature.
Coherence is a defining feature of quantum condensates. These condensates are inherently multimode phenomena and in the macroscopic limit it becomes extremely difficult to resolve populations of individual modes and the coherence between them. In this work we demonstrate non-equilibrium Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) of photons in a sculpted dye-filled microcavity, where threshold is found for $8pm 2$ photons. With this nanocondensate we are able to measure occupancies and coherences of individual energy levels of the bosonic field. Coherence of individual modes generally increases with increasing photon number, but at the breakdown of thermal equilibrium we observe multimode-condensation phase transitions wherein coherence unexpectedly decreases with increasing population, suggesting that the photons show strong inter-mode phase or number correlations despite the absence of a direct nonlinearity. Experiments are well-matched to a detailed non-equilibrium model. We find that microlaser and Bose-Einstein statistics each describe complementary parts of our data and are limits of our model in appropriate regimes, which informs the debate on the differences between the two.
