In spinor Bose Einstein condensates (BEC) gases, a fraction of its thermally excited atoms can still interact with the condensate ground state, leading to spin-spin interactions that can modify the main features of its spin-phase diagrams. In this work we study the spin-phase diagram of a BEC of general spin-$f$ and fully characterize its noncondensate thermal fraction. The latter provided that the condensate ground state lies within a spin phase with rotational symmetry. The study is based in the Hartree-Fock approximation in conjunction with the Majorana stellar representation approach for pure and mixed quantum states and the use of point-group symmetry arguments. The method allows us to study the phase diagram of spinorial BECs with usual point-group symmetries, including those with some exotic phases associated to the platonic solids ($f=2,3,4,$ and 6), which are known to lead to non-Abelian topological excitations. In addition, we explore the temperature effects on the admissible spin-phase domains for general spin values, as well as its physical implications on their multipolar magnetic moments.

We consider the ratchet dynamics in a $mathcal{PT}$-symmetric Floquet quantum system with symmetric temporal (harmonic) driving. In the exact $mathcal{PT}$-symmetry phase, for a finite number of resonant frequencies, we show that the long-lasting resonant currents can be generated with the symmetric time-continuous driving, which would otherwise forbid the generation of directed currents in the Hermitian limit. Such a non-Hermitian resonant current can be enhanced by increasing the non-Hermitian level and, in particular, the resonant current peaks (reaches the largest negative value) under the condition that the imaginary part of the potential depth is equal to the real part, at which the stable asymptotic current occurs owing to exceptional points mechanism. Moreover, the directed currents originating from the symmetry breaking are reported, which increase linearly with the driving frequency, the mechanism behind which is that the cutoff of the momentum eigenstates for the Floquet state with maximum imaginary quasienergy increases as the driving frequency is continuously increased. We also present a non-Hermitian three-level model that can account for the resonant currents and gives surprisingly good agreement with direct numerical results for weak driving, even in the broken-$mathcal{PT}$-symmetry regime for the first-order resonance. Our results provide a means of realizing the non-Hermiticity-controlled ratchet current by means of a smooth continuous driving, previously used only to generate currents in Hermitian systems.

Recent technological advancements have enabled strong light-matter interaction in highly dissipative cavity-emitter systems. However, in these systems, which are well described by the Tavis-Cummings model, the considerable loss rates render the realization of many desirable nonlinear effects, such as saturation and photon blockade, problematic. Here we present another effect occurring within the Tavis-Cummings model: A nonlinear response of the cavity for resonant external driving of intermediate strength, which makes use of large cavity dissipation rates. In this regime, $(N+1)$-photon absorption processes dominate when the cavity couples to $N$ emitters. We explore and characterize this effect in detail, and provide a picture of how the effect occurs due to destructive interference between the emitter ensemble and the external drive. We find that a central condition for the observed effect is large cooperativity; i.e., the product of the cavity and emitter decay rates is much smaller than the collective cavity-emitter interaction strength squared. Importantly, this condition does not require strong coupling. We also find an analytical expression for the critical drive strength at which the effect appears. Our results have potential for quantum state engineering, e.g., photon filtering, and could be used for the characterization of cavity-emitter systems where the number of emitters is unknown. In particular, our results open the way for investigations of unique quantum-optics applications in a variety of platforms that require neither high-quality cavities nor strong coupling.

The non-Hermiticity of the system gives rise to distinct knot topology that has no Hermitian counterpart. Here, we report a comprehensive study of the knot topology in gapped non-Hermitian systems based on the universal dilation method with a long-coherence-time nitrogen-vacancy center in a $^{12}mathrm{C}$ isotope purified diamond. Both the braiding patterns of energy bands and the eigenstate topology are revealed. Furthermore, the global biorthogonal Berry phase related to the eigenstate topology has been successfully observed, which identifies the topological invariance for the non-Hermitian system. Our method paves the way for further exploration of the interplay among band braiding, eigenstate topology, and symmetries in non-Hermitian quantum systems.

We consider a model of an intelligent surfer moving on the Ulam network generated by a chaotic dynamics in the Chirikov standard map. This directed network is obtained by the Ulam method with a division of the phase space in cells of fixed size forming the nodes of a Markov chain. The goal quest for this surfer is to determine the network path from an initial node $A$ to a final node $B$ with minimal resistance given by the sum of inverse transition probabilities. We develop an algorithm for the intelligent surfer that allows us to perform the quest in a small number of transitions which grows only logarithmically with the network size. The optimal path search is done on a fractal intersection set formed by nodes with small Erd"os numbers of the forward and inverted networks. The intelligent surfer exponentially outperforms a naive surfer who tries to minimize its phase space distance to target $B$. We argue that such an algorithm provides unique hints for motion control in chaotic flows.

Changes in pedestrian dynamics caused by social distancing policies place new demands on pedestrian motion modeling during the pandemic. This study summarizes pedestrian movement characteristics during the pandemic, based on which, the traditional floor-field cellular automata model was improved by introducing two floor fields related to pedestrian density to simulate social distancing in crowded places. Especially, the cumulative density field guides pedestrians in route selection, thereby compensating for the limitation of the previous models in which only local repulsion was considered. By selecting an appropriate combination of parameters, the desired social distancing behavior can be observed. Then, the rationality of our model is verified by the fundamental diagram. Moreover, to assess the influences of social distancing on the risk of disease transmission, we considered both person-person transmission and environment-person transmission. The simulation results show that although social distancing is effective in preventing interpersonal transmission, an increase in environmental transmission may somewhat offset this effect. We also examined the influence of individual motion heterogeneity on infection spread and found that the containment was the best when only patients complied with the social distancing restriction. The trade-off between safety and efficiency associated with social distancing was also initially explored in this study.

The renewal process is a point process where an interevent time between successive renewals is an independent and identically distributed random variable. Alternating renewal process is a dichotomous process and a slight generalization of the renewal process, where the interevent time distribution alternates between two distributions. We investigate statistical properties of the number of renewals and occupation times for one of the two states in alternating renewal processes. When both means of the interevent times are finite, the alternating renewal process can reach an equilibrium. On the other hand, an alternating renewal process shows aging when one of the means diverges. We provide analytical calculations for the moments of the number of renewals, occupation time statistics, and the correlation function for several case studies in the interevent-time distributions. We show anomalous fluctuations for the number of renewals and occupation times when the second moment of interevent time diverges. When the mean interevent time diverges, distributional limit theorems for the number of events and occupation times are shown analytically. These are known as the Mittag-Leffler distribution and the generalized arcsine law in probability theory.

In a recent paper, Griffiths [Phys. Rev. A 107, 062219 (2023)] analyzed a protocol for transmission of information between two parties introduced by Salih et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 110, 170502 (2013)]. There is a considerable controversy about the counterfactuality of this protocol, and Griffiths suggested to resolve it by introducing a new measure of channel usage, which he called ``Cost.'' I argue that this measure is not appropriate because the original interaction-free measurement protocol which triggered the definition of the concept of counterfactuality is not counterfactual according to this measure.

We present an experimental realization of dynamic self-trapping and nonexponential tunneling in a multistate system consisting of ultracold sodium spinor gases confined in moving optical lattices. Taking advantage of the fact that the tunneling process between different momentum states in the sodium spinor system is resolvable over a broader dynamic energy scale than previously observed in rubidium scalar gases, we demonstrate that the tunneling dynamics in the multistate system strongly depends on an interaction induced nonlinearity and is influenced by the spin degree of freedom under certain conditions. We develop a rigorous multistate tunneling model to describe the observed dynamics. Combined with our recent observation of spatially manipulated spin dynamics, these results open up prospects for alternative multistate ramps and state transfer protocols.

Integrable turbulence studies the complex dynamics of random waves for the nonlinear integrable systems, and it has become an important element in exploring the sophisticated turbulent phenomena. In the present work, based on the coupled nonlinear Schr"odinger models, we have shown the coexistence of Gaussian and non-Gaussian single-point statistics in multiple wave components, which might be viewed as an exclusive feature for the vector integrable turbulence. This coexistent statistic can relate to different distributions of the vector solitonic excitations depending on the time-invariant nonlinear spectra. Our results are expected to shed light on a deeper understanding of the turbulent behaviors of vector waves and may motivate relevant experiments in the coupled optical or atomic systems.
