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.

Recently a new type of system exhibiting spontaneous coherence has emerged -- the exciton-polariton condensate. Exciton-polaritons (or polaritons for short) are bosonic quasiparticles that exist inside semiconductor microcavities, consisting of a sup
erposition of an exciton and a cavity photon. Above a threshold density the polaritons macroscopically occupy the same quantum state, forming a condensate. The lifetime of the polaritons are typically comparable to or shorter than thermalization times, making them possess an inherently non-equilibrium nature. Nevertheless, they display many of the features that would be expected of equilibrium Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs). The non-equilibrium nature of the system raises fundamental questions of what it means for a system to be a BEC, and introduces new physics beyond that seen in other macroscopically coherent systems. In this review we focus upon several physical phenomena exhibited by exciton-polariton condensates. In particular we examine topics such as the difference between a polariton BEC, a polariton laser, and a photon laser, as well as physical phenomena such as superfluidity, vortex formation, BKT (Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless) and BCS (Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer) physics. We also discuss the physics and applications of engineered polariton structures.
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 ide
ntical 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.
Exciton-polaritons are a coherent electron-hole-photon (e-h-p) system where condensation has been observed in semiconductor microcavities. In contrast to equilibrium Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) for long lifetime systems, polariton condensates ha
ve a dynamical nonequilibrium feature owing to the similar physical structure that they have to semiconductor lasers. One of the distinguishing features of a condensate to a laser is the presence of strong coupling between the matter and photon fields. Irrespective of its equilibrium or nonequilibrium nature, exciton-polariton have been observed to maintain strong coupling. We show that by investigating high density regime of exciton-polariton condensates, the negative branch directly observed in photoluminescence. This is evidence that the present e-h-p system is still in the strong coupling regime, contrary to past results where the system reduced to standard lasing at high density.
We demonstrate, both experimentally and theoretically, a new phenomenon: the presence of dissipative coupling in the system of driven bosons. This is evidenced for a particular case of externally excited spots of exciton-polariton condensates in semi
conductor microcavities. We observe that for two spatially separated condensates the dissipative coupling leads to the phase locking, either in-phase or out-of-phase, between the condensates. The effect depends on the distance between the condensates. For several excited spots, we observe the appearance of spontaneous vorticity in the system.
We investigate the existence of ground state solutions of a Gross-Pitaevskii equation modeling the dynamics of pumped Bose Einstein condensates (BEC). The main interest in such BEC comes from its important nature as macroscopic quantum system, consti
tuting an excellent alternative to the classical condensates which are hard to realize because of the very low temperature required. Nevertheless, the Gross Pitaevskii equation governing the new condensates presents some mathematical challenges due to the presence of the pumping and damping terms. Following a self-contained approach, we prove the existence of ground state solutions of this equation under suitable assumptions: This is equivalent to say that condensation occurs in these situations. We also solve the Cauchy problem of the nonlinear Schroedinger equation and prove some corresponding laws.
