We consider a two-dimensional extension of the 1D waveguide quantum electrodynamics and investigate the nature of linear excitations in two-dimensional arrays of qubits coupled to networks of chiral waveguides. We show that the combined effects of chirality and long-range photon mediated qubit-qubit interactions lead to the emergence of the two-dimensional flat bands in the polaritonic spectrum, corresponding to slow strongly correlated light.

Understanding physical properties of quantum emitters strongly interacting with quantized electromagnetic modes, both discrete and continuous spectra, is one of the primary goals in the emergent field of waveguide quantum electrodynamics (QED). When
the light-matter coupling strength is comparable to or even exceeds energies of elementary excitations, conventional approaches based on perturbative treatment of light-matter interactions, two-level description of matter excitations, and photon-number truncation are no longer sufficient. Here we study in and out of equilibrium properties of waveguide QED in such nonperturbative regimes by developing a comprehensive and rigorous theoretical approach using an asymptotic decoupling unitary transformation. We uncover several surprising features ranging from symmetry-protected many-body bound states in the continuum to strong renormalization of the effective mass and potential; the latter may explain recent experiments demonstrating cavity-induced changes in chemical reactivity as well as enhancements of ferromagnetism or superconductivity. We demonstrate these results by applying our general formalism to a model of coupled cavity arrays, which is relevant to experiments in superconducting qubits interacting with microwave resonators or atoms coupled to photonic crystals. We examine the relation between our results and delocalization-localization transition in the spin-boson model; notably, we point out that one can find a quantum phase transition akin to the superradiant transition in multi-emitter waveguide QED systems with superlinear photonic dispersion. Besides waveguide resonators, we discuss possible applications of our framework to other light-matter systems relevant to quantum optics, condensed matter physics, and quantum chemistry.
We study theoretically quantum states of a pair of photons interacting with a finite periodic array of two-level atoms in a waveguide. Our calculation reveals two-polariton eigenstates that have a highly irregular wave-function in real space. This in
dicates the Bethe ansatz breakdown and the onset of quantum chaos, in stark contrast to the conventional integrable problem of two interacting bosons in a box. We identify the long-range waveguide-mediated coupling between the atoms as the key ingredient of chaos and nonintegrability. Our results provide new insights in the interplay between order, chaos and localization in many-body quantum systems and can be tested in state-of-the-art setups of waveguide quantum electrodynamics.
We develop a wavefunction approach to describe the scattering of two photons on a quantum emitter embedded in a one-dimensional waveguide. Our method allows us to calculate the exact dynamics of the complete system at all times, as well as the transm
ission properties of the emitter. We show that the non-linearity of the emitter with respect to incoming photons depends strongly on the emitter excitation and the spectral shape of the incoming pulses, resulting in transmission of the photons which depends crucially on their separation and width. In addition, for counter-propagating pulses, we analyze the induced level of quantum correlations in the scattered state, and we show that the emitter behaves as a non-linear beam-splitter when the spectral width of the photon pulses is similar to the emitter decay rate.
This review describes an emerging field of waveguide quantum electrodynamics (WQED) studying interaction of photons propagating in a waveguide with localized quantum emitters. In such systems, atoms and guided photons are hybridized with each other a
nd form polaritons that can propagate along the waveguide, contrary to the cavity quantum optics setup. Emerging in such a system collective light-atom interactions result in super- and sub-radiant quantum states, that are promising for quantum information processing, and give rise to peculiar quantum correlations between photons. The review is aimed at both experimentalists and theoreticians from various fields of physics interested in the rapidly developing subject of WQED. We highlight recent groundbreaking experiments performed for different quantum platforms, including cold atoms, superconducting qubits, semiconductor quantum dots, quantum solid-state defects and at the same time provide a comprehensive introduction into various theoretical techniques to study atom-photon interactions in the waveguide.
We explore the joint activated dynamics exhibited by two quantum degrees of freedom: a cavity mode oscillator which is strongly coupled to a superconducting qubit in the strongly coherently driven dispersive regime. Dynamical simulations and compleme
ntary measurements show a range of parameters where both the cavity and the qubit exhibit sudden simultaneous switching between two metastable states. This manifests in ensemble averaged amplitudes of both the cavity and qubit exhibiting a partial coherent cancellation. Transmission measurements of driven microwave cavities coupled to transmon qubits show detailed features which agree with the theory in the regime of simultaneous switching.
