The superfluidity of low-temperature bosons is well established in the collisional regime. In the collisionless regime, however, the presence of superfluidity is not yet fully clarified, in particular in lower spatial dimensions. Here we compare the Vlasov-Landau equation, which does not take into account the superfluid nature of the bosonic system, with the Andreev-Khalatnikov equations, which instead explicitly contain a superfluid velocity. We show that recent experimental data of the sound mode in a two-dimensional collisionless Bose gas of $^{87}$Rb atoms are in good agreement with both theories but the sound damping is better reproduced by the Andreev -Khalatnikov equations below the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless critical temperature $T_c$ while above $T_c$ the Vlasov-Landau results are closer to the experimental ones. For one dimensional bosonic fluids, where experimental data are not yet available, we find larger differences between the sound velocities predicted by the two transport theories and, also in this case, the existence of a superfluid velocity reduces the sound damping.

We study the dynamics of dilute and ultracold bosonic gases in a quasi two-dimensional (2D) configuration and in the collisionless regime. We adopt the 2D Landau-Vlasov equation to describe a three-dimensional gas under very strong harmonic confineme nt along one direction. We use this effective equation to investigate the speed of sound in quasi 2D bosonic gases, i.e. the sound propagation around a Bose-Einstein distribution in collisionless 2D gases. We derive coupled algebraic equations for the real and imaginary parts of the sound velocity, which are then solved taking also into account the equation of state of the 2D bosonic system. Above the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless critical temperature we find that there is rapid growth of the imaginary component of the sound velocity which implies a strong Landau damping. Quite remarkably, our theoretical results are in good agreement with very recent experimental data obtained with a uniform 2D Bose gas of $^{87}$Rb atoms.
We study the many-body phases of bosonic atoms with $N$ internal states confined to a 1D optical lattice under the influence of a synthetic magnetic field and strong repulsive interactions. The $N$ internal states of the atoms are coupled via Raman t ransitions creating the synthetic magnetic field in the space of internal spin states corresponding to recent experimental realisations. We focus on the case of strong $mbox{SU}(N)$ invariant local density-density interactions in which each site of the 1D lattice is at most singly occupied, and strong Raman coupling, in distinction to previous work which has focused on the weak Raman coupling case. This allows us to keep only a single state per site and derive a low energy effective spin $1/2$ model. The effective model contains first-order nearest neighbour tunnelling terms, and second-order nearest neighbour interactions and correlated next-nearest neighbour tunnelling terms. By adjusting the flux $phi$ one can tune the relative importance of first-order and second-order terms in the effective Hamiltonian. In particular, first-order terms can be set to zero, realising a novel model with dominant second-order terms. We show that the resulting competition between density-dependent tunnelling and repulsive density-density interaction leads to an interesting phase diagram including a phase with long-ranged pair-superfluid correlations. The method can be straightforwardly extended to higher dimensions and lattices of arbitrary geometry including geometrically frustrated lattices where the interplay of frustration, interactions and kinetic terms is expected to lead to even richer physics.

Following recent experiments on ultracold dual superflows, we model in this work the dynamics of two harmonically trapped counterflowing superfluids. Using complementary analytical and numerical approaches, we study the shedding of elementary excitat ions triggered by the relative motion of the two species. We exhibit two different excitation mechanisms leading to distinct threshold velocities for the onset of dissipation: in addition to the parametric pair production present in homogeneous , galilean-invariant systems, we show that non-uniform motion and density inhomogeneities allow for a Landau-like decay mechanism where single excitations are produced.

We study the necessary condition under which a resonantly driven exciton polariton superfluid flowing against an obstacle can generate turbulence. The value of the critical velocity is well estimated by the transition from elliptic to hyperbolic of a n operator following ideas developed by Frisch, Pomeau, Rica for a superfluid flow around an obstacle, though the nature of equations governing the polariton superfluid is quite different. We find analytical estimates depending on the pump amplitude and on the pump energy detuning, quite consistent with our numerical computations.

We study possible superfluid states of the Rashba spin-orbit coupled (SOC) spinor bosons with the spin anisotropic interaction $ lambda $ hopping in a square lattice. The frustrations from the non-abelian flux due to the SOC leads to novel spin-bond correlated superfluids. By using a recently developed systematic order from quantum disorder analysis, we not only determine the true quantum ground state, but also evaluate the mass gap in the spin sector at $ lambda < 1 $, especially compute the the excitation spectrum of the Goldstone mode in the spin sector at $ lambda=1 $ which would be quadratic without the analysis. The analysis also leads to different critical exponents on the two sides of the 2nd order transition driven by a roton touchdown at $ lambda=1 $. The intimate analogy at $ lambda=1 $ with the charge neutral Goldstone mode in the pseudo-spin sector in the Bilayer quantum Hall systems at the total filling factor $ u_T=1 $ are stressed. The experimental implications and detections of these novel phenomena in cold atoms loaded on a optical lattice are presented.
