[CONVERGED EQUATIONS]
Bose-Einstein Condensates & Soliton Collisions 1D GPE

In quasi-one-dimensional atomic waveguides, attractive contact interactions ($g_{1D} < 0$) counteract kinetic dispersion, enabling the formation of non-dispersive bright matter-wave solitons. We study phase shifts and quantum corrections beyond mean-field theory:

$$i\hbar \frac{\partial \psi(x,t)}{\partial t} = \left(-\frac{\hbar^2}{2m}\frac{\partial^2}{\partial x^2} + V(x) - g_{1D}|\psi(x,t)|^2\right)\psi(x,t)$$
Focus: Multi-component Gross-Pitaevskii equations (GPE), collisional phase stability, and second-order Bogoliubov fluctuations.
Real-Time Stochastic FCIQMC Dynamics RIMU.JL

Full Configuration Interaction Quantum Monte Carlo (FCIQMC) resolves exponential Hilbert spaces via walker populations. Extending this to unitary real-time evolution introduces severe sign cancellation:

$$\frac{d C_{\mathbf{i}}(t)}{dt} = -i \sum_{\mathbf{j}} H_{\mathbf{i}\mathbf{j}} C_{\mathbf{j}}(t) - S(t) C_{\mathbf{i}}(t)$$
Innovation: Stabilizing `LeapfrogComplex` propagators via the `InternalCoherence` post-step algorithm developed in `RimuRealTime.jl`.
1D Extended Fermi-Hubbard Lattice CORRELATED FERMIONS

Investigation of competing on-site repulsion ($U$) and nearest-neighbor interaction ($V$) in strongly correlated one-dimensional fermionic lattices subjected to non-Hermitian hoppings:

$$H = -t\sum_{\langle i,j \rangle,\sigma}(c_{i\sigma}^\dagger c_{j\sigma} + \text{h.c.}) + U\sum_i n_{i\uparrow}n_{i\downarrow} + V\sum_{\langle i,j \rangle} n_i n_j$$
Focus: Charge-density-wave (CDW) vs Spin-density-wave (SDW) phases, Floquet periodic driving, and biorthogonal spectral signatures.
Matrix Product States & DMRG TENSOR NETWORKS

Entanglement entropy bounds in one-dimensional systems permit efficient Matrix Product State (MPS) representations of ground states and time-evolved quantum states via DMRG:

$$|\Psi\rangle = \sum_{\{\sigma_i\}} A^{\sigma_1} A^{\sigma_2} \cdots A^{\sigma_L} |\sigma_1 \sigma_2 \cdots \sigma_L\rangle$$
Focus: Truncation errors under time-dependent DMRG (t-DMRG) during non-equilibrium quantum quenches.
ARCHIVAL PLATE 02-B // SPACETIME TRAJECTORY & COLLISIONAL PHASE SHIFT ($\Delta\theta$)
NUMERICAL GPE
x (Position) t (Time) +Δx Phase Shift -Δx Phase Shift SOLITON 1: +v (INCIDENT) ψ₁(x,t) ∝ sech((x - vt)/ξ) SOLITON 2: -v (INCIDENT) ψ₂(x,t) ∝ sech((x + vt)/ξ) COLLISION ZONE (t = 0, x = 0)
Analytical Derivation: In the integrable 1D Lieb-Liniger limit, the asymptotic spatial shift obeys $\Delta x = \frac{2\xi}{N} \ln\left(1 + \frac{4 v^2}{g_{1D}^2}\right)$. Solitons preserve their shape and velocity, acquiring only a net coordinate advancement.

Real-Time Dynamics in Configuration Interaction Quantum Monte Carlo: Stabilizing Stochastic Propagators

Authors: Joachim Brand, Jyotiraj Nath, Matija Čufar, C. J. Bradly

Unitary real-time evolution within Full Configuration Interaction Quantum Monte Carlo suffers from rapid phase cancellation between complex walker populations. Here, we present the mathematical formulation of the InternalCoherence post-step strategy and demonstrate stable quantum propagation using LeapfrogComplex algorithms in open-source Julia.

Collisional Phase Shifts and Quantum Fluctuations of Bright Solitons in Attractive BEC Waveguides

Authors: Jyotiraj Nath, Ray Yang, Elke Pahl, Joachim Brand

We simulate low-velocity collisions of bright matter-wave solitons in tightly confined optical waveguides using a non-polynomial Gross-Pitaevskii solver. Quantum corrections and phase-delay asymptotic shifts are benchmarked against exact Bethe ansatz predictions for integrable Lieb-Liniger regimes.
