@article{5983, abstract = {We study a quantum impurity possessing both translational and internal rotational degrees of freedom interacting with a bosonic bath. Such a system corresponds to a “rotating polaron,” which can be used to model, e.g., a rotating molecule immersed in an ultracold Bose gas or superfluid helium. We derive the Hamiltonian of the rotating polaron and study its spectrum in the weak- and strong-coupling regimes using a combination of variational, diagrammatic, and mean-field approaches. We reveal how the coupling between linear and angular momenta affects stable quasiparticle states, and demonstrate that internal rotation leads to an enhanced self-localization in the translational degrees of freedom.}, author = {Yakaboylu, Enderalp and Midya, Bikashkali and Deuchert, Andreas and Leopold, Nikolai K and Lemeshko, Mikhail}, issn = {2469-9969}, journal = {Physical Review B}, number = {22}, publisher = {American Physical Society}, title = {{Theory of the rotating polaron: Spectrum and self-localization}}, doi = {10.1103/physrevb.98.224506}, volume = {98}, year = {2018}, } @article{6002, abstract = {The Bogoliubov free energy functional is analysed.

Whereas for bosons a point interacting system is always unstable this ques- tion is more subtle for a gas of two species of fermions. In particular the answer depends on the mass ratio between these two species. Most of this work will be focused on the N + M model which consists of two species of fermions with N, M particles respectively which interact via point interactions. We will introduce this model using a formal limit and discuss the N + 1 system in more detail. In particular, we will show that for mass ratios above a critical one, which does not depend on the particle number, the N + 1 system is stable. In the context of this model we will prove rigorous versions of Tan relations which relate various quantities of the point-interacting model. By restricting the N + 1 system to a box we define a finite density model with point in- teractions. In the context of this system we will discuss the energy change when introducing a point-interacting impurity into a system of non-interacting fermions. We will see that this change in energy is bounded independently of the particle number and in particular the bound only depends on the density and the scattering length. As another special case of the N + M model we will show stability of the 2 + 2 model for mass ratios in an interval around one. Further we will investigate a different model of point interactions which was discussed before in the literature and which is, contrary to the N + M model, not given by a limiting procedure but is based on a Dirichlet form. We will show that this system behaves trivially in the thermodynamic limit, i.e. the free energy per particle is the same as the one of the non-interacting system.}, author = {Moser, Thomas}, issn = {2663-337X}, pages = {115}, publisher = {Institute of Science and Technology Austria}, title = {{Point interactions in systems of fermions}}, doi = {10.15479/AT:ISTA:th_1043}, year = {2018}, } @article{180, abstract = {In this paper we define and study the classical Uniform Electron Gas (UEG), a system of infinitely many electrons whose density is constant everywhere in space.
