Topological defects in low-dimensional non-linear systems feature a sliding-to-pinning transition of relevance for a variety of research fields, ranging from biophysics to nano- and solid-state physics. We find that the dynamics after a local excitation results in a highly-non-trivial energy transport in the presence of a topological soliton, characterized by a strongly enhanced energy localization in the pinning regime. Moreover, we show that the energy flux in ion crystals with a topological defect can be sensitively regulated by experimentally accessible environmental parameters. Whereas, third-order non-linear resonances can cause an enhanced long-time energy delocalization, robust energy localization persists for distinct parameter ranges even for long evolution times and large local excitations.

Topological quantum optical states in one-dimensional (1D) quasiperiodic cold atomic chains are studied in this work. We propose that by introducing incommensurate modulations on the interatomic distances of 1D periodic atomic chains, the off-diagona
l Aubry-Andre-Harper (AAH) model can be mimicked, although the crucial difference is the existence of long-range dipole-dipole interactions. The discrete band structures with respect to the modulation phase, which plays the role of a dimension extension parameter, are calculated for finite chains beyond the nearest-neighbor approximation. It is found that the present system indeed supports nontrivial topological states localized over the boundaries. Despite the presence of long-range dipole-dipole interactions that leads to an asymmetric band structure, it is demonstrated that this system inherits the topological properties of two-dimensional integer quantum Hall systems. The spectral position, for both real and imaginary frequencies, and number of these topologically protected edge states are still governed by the gap-labeling theorem and characterized by the topological invariant, namely, the (first) Chern number, indicating the validity of bulk-boundary correspondence. Due to the fractal spectrum arising from the quasiperiodicity in a substantially wide range of system parameters, our system provides a large number of topological gaps and optical states readily for practical use. It is also revealed that a substantial proportion of the topological edge states are highly subradiant with extremely low decay rates, which therefore offer an appealing route for controlling the emission of external quantum emitters and achieving high-fidelity quantum state storage.
Fully inverted atoms placed at exactly the same location synchronize as they deexcite, and light is emitted in a burst (known as Dickes superradiance). We investigate the role of finite interatomic separation on correlated decay in mesoscopic chains,
and provide an understanding in terms of collective jump operators. We show that the superradiant burst survives at small distances, despite Hamiltonian dipole-dipole interactions. However, for larger separations, competition between different jump operators leads to dephasing, suppressing superradiance. Collective effects are still significant for arrays with lattice constants of the order of a wavelength, and lead to a photon emission rate that decays nonexponentially in time. We calculate the two-photon correlation function and demonstrate that emission is correlated and directional, as well as sensitive to small changes in the interatomic distance. These features can be measured in current experimental setups, and are robust to realistic imperfections.
We propose a robust localization of the highly-excited Rydberg atoms, interacting with doughnut-shaped optical vortices. Compared with the earlier standing-wave (SW)-based localization methods, a vortex beam can provide an ultrahigh-precision two-dim
ensional localization solely in the zero-intensity center, within a confined excitation region down to the nanometer scale. We show that the presence of the Rydberg-Rydberg interaction permits counter-intuitively much stronger confinement towards a high spatial resolution when it is partially compensated by a suitable detuning. In addition, applying an auxiliary SW modulation to the two-photon detuning allows a three-dimensional confinement of Rydberg atoms. In this case, the vortex field provides a transverse confinement while the SW modulation of the two-photon detuning localizes the Rydberg atoms longitudinally. To develop a new subwavelength localization technique, our results pave one-step closer to reduce excitation volumes to the level of a few nanometers, representing a feasible implementation for the future experimental applications.
We consider a system of fermions with a quasi-random almost-Mathieu disorder interacting through a many-body short range potential. We establish exponential decay of the zero temperature correlations, indicating localization of the interacting ground
state, for weak hopping and interaction and almost everywhere in the frequency and phase; this extends the analysis in cite{M} to chemical potentials outside spectral gaps. The proof is based on Renormalization Group and is inspired by techniques developed to deal with KAM Lindstedt series.
We theoretically analyse the equation of topological solitons in a chain of particles interacting via a repulsive power-law potential and confined by a periodic lattice. Starting from the discrete model, we perform a gradient expansion and obtain the
kink equation in the continuum limit for a power law exponent $n ge 1$. The power-law interaction modifies the sine-Gordon equation, giving rise to a rescaling of the coefficient multiplying the second derivative (the kink width) and to an additional integral term. We argue that the integral term does not affect the local properties of the kink, but it governs the behaviour at the asymptotics. The kink behaviour at the center is dominated by a sine-Gordon equation and its width tends to increase with the power law exponent. When the interaction is the Coulomb repulsion, in particular, the kink width depends logarithmically on the chain size. We define an appropriate thermodynamic limit and compare our results with existing studies performed for infinite chains. Our formalism allows one to systematically take into account the finite-size effects and also slowly varying external potentials, such as for instance the curvature in an ion trap.
