Transport is one of the most important physical processes in all energy and length scales. The non-interacting Boltzmann equation and the hydrodynamic equations respectively describe two opposite limits of transport. Here we present an unexpected mathematical connection between these two limits, named textit{idealized hydrodynamics}, which refers to the situation where the solution to the hydrodynamic equations of an interacting system can be exactly constructed from the solutions of a non-interacting Boltzmann equation. We analytically provide three examples of such idealized hydrodynamics. These examples respectively recover the dark soliton solution in a one-dimensional superfluid, generalize fermionization to the hydrodynamics of strongly interacting systems, and determine specific initial conditions for perfect density oscillations in a harmonic trap. They can be used, for instance, to explain a recent puzzling experimental observation in ultracold atomic gases by the Paris group, and to make further predictions for future experiments. We envision that extensive examples of such idealized hydrodynamics can be found by systematical numerical search, which can find broad applications in different problems in various subfields of physics.

Physical systems made of many interacting quantum particles can often be described by Euler hydrodynamic equations in the limit of long wavelengths and low frequencies. Recently such a classical hydrodynamic framework, now dubbed Generalized Hydrodyn amics (GHD), was found for quantum integrable models in one spatial dimension. Despite its great predictive power, GHD, like any Euler hydrodynamic equation, misses important quantum effects, such as quantum fluctuations leading to non-zero equal-time correlations between fluid cells at different positions. Focusing on the one-dimensional gas of bosons with delta repulsion, and on states of zero entropy, for which quantum fluctuations are larger, we reconstruct such quantum effects by quantizing GHD. The resulting theory of quantum GHD can be viewed as a multi-component Luttinger liquid theory, with a small set of effective parameters that are fixed by the Thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz. It describes quantum fluctuations of truly nonequilibrium systems where conventional Luttinger liquid theory fails.
Semiconductor devices are strong competitors in the race for the development of quantum com-putational systems. In this work, we interface two semiconductor building blocks of different di-mensionality and with complementary properties: (1) a quantum dot hosting a single exciton andacting as a nearly ideal single-photon emitter and (2) a quantum well in a 2D microcavity sustain-ing polaritons, which are known for their strong interactions and unique hydrodynamics propertiesincluding ultrafast real-time monitoring of their propagation and phase-mapping. In the presentexperiment we can thus observe how the injected single particles propagate and evolve inside themicrocavity, giving rise to hydrodynamics features typical of macroscopic systems despite their in-trinsic genuine quantum nature. In the presence of a structural defect, we observe the celebratedquantum interference of a single particle that produces fringes reminiscent of a wave propagation.While this behaviour could be theoretically expected, our imaging of such an interference pattern,together with a measurement of antibunching, constitutes the first demonstration of spatial mappingof the self-interference of a single quantum particle hitting an obstacle.
The emergence of a special type of fluid-like behavior at large scales in one-dimensional (1d) quantum integrable systems, theoretically predicted in 2016, is established experimentally, by monitoring the time evolution of the in situ density profile of a single 1d cloud of $^{87}{rm Rb}$ atoms trapped on an atom chip after a quench of the longitudinal trapping potential. The theory can be viewed as a dynamical extension of the thermodynamics of Yang and Yang, and applies to the whole range of repulsion strength and temperature of the gas. The measurements, performed on weakly interacting atomic clouds that lie at the crossover between the quasicondensate and the ideal Bose gas regimes, are in very good agreement with the 2016 theory. This contrasts with the previously existing conventional hydrodynamic approach---that relies on the assumption of local thermal equilibrium---, which is unable to reproduce the experimental data.
The dynamics of strongly interacting many-body quantum systems are notoriously complex and difficult to simulate. A new theory, generalized hydrodynamics (GHD), promises to efficiently accomplish such simulations for nearly-integrable systems. It pre dicts the evolution of the distribution of rapidities, which are the momenta of the quasiparticles in integrable systems. GHD was recently tested experimentally for weakly interacting atoms, but its applicability to strongly interacting systems has not been experimentally established. Here we test GHD with bundles of one-dimensional (1D) Bose gases by performing large trap quenches in both the strong and intermediate coupling regimes. We measure the evolving distribution of rapidities, and find that theory and experiment agree well over dozens of trap oscillations, for average dimensionless coupling strengths that range from 0.3 to 9.3. By also measuring momentum distributions, we gain experimental access to the interaction energy and thus to how the quasiparticles themselves evolve. The accuracy of GHD demonstrated here confirms its wide applicability to the simulation of nearly-integrable quantum dynamical systems. Future experimental studies are needed to explore GHD in spin chains, as well as the crossover between GHD and regular hydrodynamics in the presence of stronger integrability breaking perturbations.
We study a two-dimensional incoherently pumped exciton-polariton condensate described by an open-dissipative Gross-Pitaevskii equation for the polariton dynamics coupled to a rate equation for the exciton density. Adopting a hydrodynamic approach, we use multiscale expansion methods to derive several models appearing in the context of shallow water waves with viscosity. In particular, we derive a Boussinesq/Benney-Luke type equation and its far-field expansion in terms of Kadomtsev-Petviashvili-I (KP-I) equations for right- and left-going waves. From the KP-I model, we predict the existence of vorticity-free, weakly (algebraically) localized two-dimensional dark-lump solitons. We find that, in the presence of dissipation, dark lumps exhibit a lifetime three times larger than that of planar dark solitons. Direct numerical simulations show that dark lumps do exist, and their dissipative dynamics is well captured by our analytical approximation. It is also shown that lump-like and vortex-like structures can spontaneously be formed as a result of the transverse snaking instability of dark soliton stripes.
