Cat states carrying long-range correlations in the many-body localized phase

Nicolas Laflorencie, Jeanne Colbois, and Fabien Alet

Phys. Rev. B 112, 224207 (2025) - Published 15 December, 2025

The many-body localization (MBL) problem continues to reveal its rich physical content. Herey, the authors investigate long-range correlations in the random-field Heisenberg chain and find rare, system-spanning “cat states” hidden in the high-energy many-body spectrum. These states are identified as nearly degenerate resonant pairs, well captured by an analytical ansatz. Remarkably, such atypical eigenstates persist even at very strong disorder, a regime in which conventional diagnostics suggest robust localization. These results offer fresh insight into the MBL problem and reopen fundamental questions about the mechanisms that might destabilize the MBL phase.

Quadrupole conserving dynamics in the noncommutative plane

Isabella Zane and Andrew Lucas

Phys. Rev. B 112, 224301 (2025) - Published 1 December, 2025

Quadrupole conserving dynamics in the noncommutative plane is shown to realize unconventional “fracton hydrodynamics”. Invariant Hamiltonians correspond to the areas of shapes, meaning that all interactions are at least three body. In fact, hydrodynamics breaks down due to relevant nonlinearities, as predicted analytically and confirmed numerically.

Nonadiabatic dynamics in non-Hermitian quantum systems from the quantum metric perspective

Xiang Zhang, Kangyi Hu, and Fuxiang Li

Phys. Rev. B 112, 224305 (2025) - Published 8 December, 2025

The authors generalize here the quantum metric framework to the 𝒫𝒯 broken region, and investigate the nonadiabatic dynamics in non-Hermitian quantum systems. The authors demonstrate that the long-time average of the rate function can be used to characterize the 𝒫𝒯 phase transitions. They also find that this framework can remove the accidental dynamical quantum phase transitions, and thus build a bridge between dynamical and equilibrium quantum phase transitions.

Coexistence of static and dynamic local magnetic fields in the distorted honeycomb lattice antiferromagnet ${Co}_{2} {Te}_{3} O_{8}$

J. Khatua, Suheon Lee, M. Pregelj, Samiul Sk, S. K. Panda, Bassam Hitti, Gerald Morris, I. da Silva, Kwang-Yong Choi, and P. Khuntia

Phys. Rev. B 112, 224425 (2025) - Published 12 December, 2025

The bipartite lattice based honeycomb quantum magnets, characterized by low coordination numbers, provide a viable route to realize exotic quantum phenomena due to an intricate interplay between competing magnetic interactions, spin-orbit coupling, and crystal electric fields. Here, the authors demonstrate the coexistence of static and dynamic local magnetic fields governed by intraplanar further-neighbor interactions and weak interplanar antiferromagnetic coupling in a 3 $d$ transition metal ion based frustrated honeycomb lattice antiferromagnet stabilizing in the XY universality class.

Phenomenological Ginzburg-Landau theory for triple-Q magnetic orders on a hexagonal lattice

Jin-Tao Jin and Yi Zhou

Phys. Rev. B 112, 224434 (2025) - Published 22 December, 2025

Complex magnets on hexagonal lattices frequently exhibit ordering at three symmetry-related wave vectors. Here, the authors develop a comprehensive Ginzburg-Landau theory that establishes a foundational framework for triple-Q magnetic orders in $O$ (2) and $O$ (3) models. They derive complete phase diagrams, revealing single-Q, double-Q, and triple-Q states—including collinear, orthogonal, and 120° configurations—and analyze the associated collective excitations and symmetry breaking. This framework elucidates exotic magnetic orders in frustrated magnets such as Na $_{2}$ Co $_{2}$ TeO $_{6}$ .

Magnetic phase diagram of ${ErB}_{4}$ as explored by neutron scattering

Simon Flury, Wolfgang J. Simeth, Danielle R. Yahne, Manisha Islam, Igor Plokhikh, Daniel G. Mazzone, Eric D. Bauer, Priscila F. S. Rosa, Romain Sibille, Oksana Zaharko, Dariusz J. Gawryluk, and Marc Janoschek

Phys. Rev. B 112, 224441 (2025) - Published 24 December, 2025

Here, the authors combine single-crystal neutron diffraction and neutron spectroscopy to study the magnetic phase diagram and the crystal electric field spectrum of the 4 $f$ -electron intermetallic ErB $_{4}$ . They reveal that the characteristic, field-induced half-plateau phase in this Ising-like system adopts an up-up-up-down structure. These findings shed light on the balance of the underlying exchange interactions between the magnetic moments arranged on a Shastry-Sutherland lattice.

Bose-Hubbard polaron from weak to strong coupling

Tom Hartweg, Tanul Gupta, and Guido Pupillo

Phys. Rev. B 112, L220201 (2025) - Published 12 December, 2025

The authors perform here large-scale quantum Monte Carlo simulations in the grand-canonical ensemble to characterize a mobile impurity in a 2D Bose–Hubbard bath. They find that the polaron effective mass is a reliable probe of the Mott–superfluid transition only at weak coupling, while strong impurity–bath interactions induce MI±1 bound states with suppressed mobility. The work delivers controlled benchmarks across interaction strengths and clarifies how impurity physics manifests in experimentally relevant trapped atom systems.

Mesoscopic fluctuations and multifractality at and across measurement-induced phase transitions

Igor Poboiko, Igor V. Gornyi, and Alexander D. Mirlin

Phys. Rev. B 112, L220202 (2025) - Published 19 December, 2025

Monitored quantum systems is a rich field bridging quantum information, statistical physics, and condensed matter. Here, combining analytical theory and numerical simulations, the authors identify scaling behavior and universality in “mesoscopic” fluctuations of the key quantum information observables across measurement-induced transitions. They reveal scale-invariant fluctuations and multifractality, uncovering new parallels to Anderson localization and Kardar-Parisi-Zhang physics. The findings crucially advance the understanding of quantum measurement effects beyond averaged observables and lay the groundwork for mesoscopic theory of monitored systems.

Experimentally probing non-Hermitian spectral transition and eigenstate skewness

Jia-Xin Zhong, Jeewoo Kim, Kai Chen, Jing Lu, Kun Ding, and Yun Jing

Phys. Rev. B 112, L220301 (2025) - Published 1 December, 2025

Probing complex-valued spectra and biorthogonal eigenstates in non-Hermitian systems remains experimentally challenging. The authors present here a Green’s function based method that directly measures these fundamental quantities in two-dimensional acoustic lattices. By capturing the full response matrix, they demonstrate eigenstate skewness and geometry-dependent spectral transitions. This universal method overcomes the limits of conventional pump‑probe or complex‑frequency techniques, providing a robust route for exploring exotic non‑Hermitian phenomena across wave‑based platforms.

Electric and spin current vortices in altermagnets

Arsen Herasymchuk, Karl Bergson Hallberg, Erik Wegner Hodt, Jacob Linder, E. V. Gorbar, and Pavlo Sukhachov

Phys. Rev. B 112, L220404 (2025) - Published 2 December, 2025

Altermagnets are collinear magnets exhibiting momentum-dependent spin splitting and vanishing net magnetization. Using semiclassical Boltzmann and lattice Keldysh approaches, the authors demonstrate here that altermagnets support swirling electric and spin currents. The patterns of these currents are controlled by the relative orientation of altermagnetic nodal planes and sample boundaries. Unlike previous proposals considering the hydrodynamic transport regime, swirling currents appear even in the Ohmic regime and rely exclusively on altermagnetic spin splitting, with no swirls found in ferromagnets.

Short-range spin freezing in the double trillium lattice spin-liquid candidate ${KSrFe}_{2} {({PO}_{4})}_{3}$ revealed via ${}^{31}P$ NMR

Sebin J. Sebastian, Q.-P. Ding, A. A. Tsirlin, R. Nath, and Y. Furukawa

Phys. Rev. B 112, L220406 (2025) - Published 5 December, 2025

The authors investigate here the double-trillium lattice antiferromagnet KSrFe $_{2}$ (PO $_{4}$ ) $_{3}$ using $^{31}$ P NMR, thermodynamic measurements, and first-principles calculations to elucidate its unconventional ground state. Below the characteristic temperature $T$ * ~ 3.5 K, the results reveal a short-range spin freezing state with persistent antiferromagnetic fluctuations, contradicting earlier proposals of a gapless spin-liquid state. A nearly field-independent NMR linewidth, strong enhancement of 1/ $T_{2}$ below $T$ *, and sizeable antiferromagnetic exchange interactions collectively position KSrFe $_{2}$ (PO $_{4}$ ) $_{3}$ as a rare three-dimensional frustrated magnet hosting intertwined static and dynamic correlations.

Microscopic evidence of a field-induced critical spin-liquid state in a frustrated metal

I. Ishant, Z. Guguchia, V. Fritsch, O. Stockert, and M. Majumder

Phys. Rev. B 112, L220409 (2025) - Published 18 December, 2025

Here, the authors use the transverse-field muon spin relaxation/rotation technique to microscopically map how a magnetic field (applied along the crystallographic $c$ axis) reshapes the quantum phases of the long-known frustrated kagome metal CePdAl. They reveal a field-induced spin-liquid state with quantum critical fluctuations—exceptionally rare in metallic frustrated systems. This powerful probe uncovers critical spin-liquid behavior with antiferromagnetic spin fluctuations, hidden to bulk and neutron measurements, establishing CePdAl as a benchmark for metallic frustration.
