Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have studied the topological structure of matter in real and momentum space and its control by a driving external field, mainly for Bose-Einstein condensates of atomic gases, but also for other quantum systems such as chiral magnets and superconductor/normal conductor junction systems. As major results, we have investigated the properties of non-Hermitian Hamiltonians intrinsic to Bose particle systems, and clarified the topology of the appearance of complex eigenvalues and how the appearance of complex eigenvalues can be controlled by a driving external field. We also proposed an experimental method to realize nontrivial topological classes under the time-periodic Hamiltonian. Furthermore, we elucidated the dynamics of vortex generation by artificial gauge fields created by the spatial structure of spins.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
ボース対称性に由来した非エルミート系において、複素固有値を含む場合のトポロジカル数を定義したこと、および複素固有値の出現機構を明らかにしたことで、微視的に明確な起源をもつ非エルミート性の性質が明らかになった。フロケ・トポロジカル相のクラスを制御する方法を提案したことで、相変化、クラスの変化を実験的に制御しながら研究する道が開けた。スピンテクスチャにより人工ゲージ場を作ることで、新たな渦生成ダイナミクスが明らかになった。
