Bulk properties of quantum phases should be independent of a specific choice of boundary conditions as long as the boundary respects the symmetries. Based on this physically reasonable requirement, we discuss the Lieb-Schultz-Mattis-type ingappability in two-dimensional quantum magnets under a boundary condition that makes evident a quantum anomaly underlying the lattice system. In particular, we direct our attention to those on the checkerboard lattice which are closely related to frustrated quantum magnets on the square lattice and on the Shastry-Sutherland lattice. Our discussion is focused on the adiabatic U(1) flux insertion through a closed path in a boundary condition twisted by a spatial rotation and a reflection. Two-dimensional systems in this boundary condition are effectively put on a nonorientable space, namely the Klein bottle. We show that the translation symmetry on the Klein-bottle space excludes the possibility of the unique and gapped ground state. Taking advantage of the flux insertion argument, we also discuss the ground-state degeneracy on magnetization plateaus of the Heisenberg antiferromagnet on the checkerboard lattice.

A central tenant in the classification of phases is that boundary conditions cannot affect the bulk properties of a system. In this work, we show striking, yet puzzling, evidence of a clear violation of this assumption. We use the prototypical exampl
e of an XYZ chain with no external field in a ring geometry with an odd number of sites and both ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic interactions. In such a setting, even at finite sizes, we are able to calculate directly the spontaneous magnetizations that are traditionally used as order parameters to characterize the systems phases. When ferromagnetic interactions dominate, we recover magnetizations that in the thermodynamic limit lose any knowledge about the boundary conditions and are in complete agreement with standard expectations. On the contrary, when the system is governed by antiferromagnetic interactions, the magnetizations decay algebraically to zero with the system size and are not staggered, despite the AFM coupling. We term this behavior {it ferromagnetic mesoscopic magnetization}. Hence, in the antiferromagnetic regime, our results show an unexpected dependence of a local, one--spin expectation values on the boundary conditions, which is in contrast with predictions from the general theory.
We investigate the spectral and transport properties of many-body quantum systems with conserved charges and kinetic constraints. Using random unitary circuits, we compute ensemble-averaged spectral form factors and linear-response correlation functi
ons, and find that their characteristic time scales are given by the inverse gap of an effective Hamiltonian$-$or equivalently, a transfer matrix describing a classical Markov process. Our approach allows us to connect directly the Thouless time, $t_{text{Th}}$, determined by the spectral form factor, to transport properties and linear response correlators. Using tensor network methods, we determine the dynamical exponent, $z$, for a number of constrained, conserving models. We find universality classes with diffusive, subdiffusive, quasilocalized, and localized dynamics, depending on the severity of the constraints. In particular, we show that quantum systems with Fredkin constraints exhibit anomalous transport with dynamical exponent $z simeq 8/3$.
Dynamical response functions are standard tools for probing local physics near the equilibrium. They provide information about relaxation properties after the equilibrium state is weakly perturbed. In this paper we focus on systems which break the as
sumption of thermalization by exhibiting persistent temporal oscillations. We provide rigorous bounds on the Fourier components of dynamical response functions in terms of extensive or local dynamical symmetries, i.e. extensive or local operators with periodic time dependence. Additionally, we discuss the effects of spatially inhomogeneous dynamical symmetries. The bounds are explicitly implemented on the example of an interacting Floquet system, specifically in the integrable Trotterization of the Heisenberg XXZ model.
By using a dual vortex method, we study phases such as superfluid, solids, supersolids and quantum phase transitions in a unified scheme in extended boson Hubbard models at and slightly away from half filling on bipartite optical lattices such as hon
eycomb and square lattice. We also map out its global phase diagram at $ T=0 $ of chemical potential versus the ratio of kinetic energy over the interaction. We stress the importance of the self-consistence condition on the saddle point structure of the dual gauge fields in the translational symmetry breaking insulating sides, especially in the charge density wave side. We find that in the translational symmetry breaking side, different kinds of supersolids are generic possible states slightly away from half filling. We propose a new kind of supersolid: valence bond supersolid (VB-SS). In this VB-SS, the density fluctuation at any site is very large indicating its superfluid nature, but the boson kinetic energies on bonds between two sites are given and break the lattice translational symmetries indicating its valence bound nature. Implications on possible future QMC simulations in both bipartite lattices are given. All these phases and phase transitions can be potentially realized in ultra-cold atoms loaded on optical bipartite lattices.
We revisit the two-dimensional quantum Ising model by computing renormalization group flows close to its quantum critical point. The low but finite temperature regime in the vicinity of the quantum critical point is squashed between two distinct non-
Gaussian fixed points: the classical fixed point dominated by thermal fluctuations and the quantum critical fixed point dominated by zero-point quantum fluctuations. Truncating an exact flow equation for the effective action we derive a set of renormalization group equations and analyze how the interplay of quantum and thermal fluctuations, both non-Gaussian in nature, influences the shape of the phase boundary and the region in the phase diagram where critical fluctuations occur. The solution of the flow equations makes this interplay transparent: we detect finite temperature crossovers by computing critical exponents and we confirm that the power law describing the finite temperature phase boundary as a function of control parameter is given by the correlation length exponent at zero temperature as predicted in an epsilon-expansion with epsilon=1 by Sachdev, Phys. Rev. B 55, 142 (1997).
