Due to their driven-dissipative nature, photonic quantum fluids present new challenges in understanding superfluidity. Some associated effects have been observed, and notably the report of nearly dissipationless flow for coherently driven microcavity-polaritons was taken as a smoking gun for superflow. Here we show that the superfluid response --- the difference between responses to longitudinal and transverse forces --- is zero for coherently driven polaritons. This is a consequence of the gapped excitation spectrum caused by external phase locking. Furthermore, while a normal component exists at finite pump momentum, the remainder forms a rigid state that is unresponsive to either longitudinal or transverse perturbations. Interestingly, the total response almost vanishes when the real part of the excitation spectrum has a linear dispersion, which was the regime investigated experimentally. This suggests that the observed suppression of scattering should be interpreted as a sign of this new rigid state and not a superfluid.
We consider the possible phases of microcavity polaritons tuned near a bipolariton Feshbach resonance. We show that, as well as the regular polariton superfluid phase, a molecular superfluid exists, with (quasi-)long-range order only for pairs of pol
Recent approximate analytical work has suggested that, at certain values of the external pump, the optical parametric oscillator (OPO) regime of microcavity polaritons may provide a realisation of Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) physics in 2D. Here, by sol
We review recent results on the coherence and superfluidity of driven dissipative condensates, i.e., systems of weakly-interacting non-conserved Bosons, such as polariton condensates. The presence of driving and dissipation has dramatically different
We present experimental observations of a non-resonant dynamic Stark shift in strongly coupled microcavity quantum well exciton-polaritons - a system which provides a rich variety of solid-state collective phenomena. The Stark effect is demonstrated
We consider a fixed impurity immersed in a Fermi gas at finite temperature. We take the impurity to have two internal spin states, where the $uparrow$ state is assumed to interact with the medium such that it exhibits the orthogonality catastrophe, w
