Article Quantum Monte Carlo Study of Artificial Triangular Graphene Quantum Dots(Amer Physical Soc, 2025) Güçlü, Alev Devrim; Habibzadeh, Alireza; Cinar, M. N.; Guclu, A. D.; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology; 04. Faculty of Science; 04.05. Department of PyhsicsWe investigate the magnetic phases of semiconductor-based artificial triangular graphene quantum dots (TGQDs) with zigzag edges using variational and diffusion Monte Carlo methods. These systems serve as quantum simulators for bipartite lattices with broken sublattice symmetry, providing a platform to study the extended Hubbard model's emergent magnetic phenomena, including Lieb's magnetism at half filling, edge depolarization upon single-electron addition, and Nagaoka ferromagnetism. Our nonperturbative quantum Monte Carlo simulations, performed for finite-sized TGQDs modeled as nanopatterned GaAs quantum wells, with system sizes up to Ns = 61 lattice sites, reveal a transition from metallic to insulating regimes as a function of the quantum well radius rho, while preserving edge-polarized ground states at half filling. Notably, edge depolarization occurs upon single-electron doping in both metallic and insulating phases, in contrast to the Nagaoka ferromagnetism observed in hexagonal armchair geometries.Article Observable-Enriched Entanglement(Amer Physical Soc, 2025) Winter, Joe H.; Ay, Reyhan; Braunecker, Bernd; Cook, A. M.; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyWe introduce methods of characterizing entanglement on the example of the quantum skyrmion Hall effect, in which entanglement measures are enriched by the matrix representations of operators for observables. These observable operator matrix representations can enrich the partial trace over subsets of a system's degrees of freedom, yielding reduced density matrices useful in computing various measures of entanglement, which also preserve the observable expectation value. We focus here on applying these methods to compute observableenriched entanglement spectra, unveiling bulk-boundary correspondences of canonical four-band models for topological skyrmion phases and their connection to simpler forms of bulk-boundary correspondence. Given the fundamental roles entanglement signatures and observables play in the study of quantum systems and the fundamental generalization of the interpretation and treatment of spin within the framework of the quantum skyrmion Hall effect, concepts of observable-enriched entanglement introduced here are broadly applicable to myriad problems of quantum systems.Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 4Type-Ii Topological Phase Transitions of Topological Skyrmion Phases(Amer Physical Soc, 2025) Ay, Reyhan; Winter, Joe H.; Cook, A. M.; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyWe present minimal toy models for topological skyrmion phases of matter, which generically realize type-II topological phase transitions in effectively noninteracting systems, those which occur without closing of the minimum direct bulk energy gap. We study the bulk-boundary correspondence in detail to show that a nontrivial skyrmion number yields a rich bulk-boundary correspondence. We observe gapless edge states, which are robust against disorder, due to nontrivial skyrmion number. Edge states corresponds to bands, which do not traverse the bulk gap, instead yielding gaplessness due to their overlap in energy and exponential localization on opposite edges of the system. These gapless boundary modes can occur for total Chern number zero, and furthermore correspond to rich real-space spin textures with strong polarization of spin along the real-space edge. By introducing toy models generically exhibiting type-II topological phase transitions and characterizing the bulk-boundary correspondence due to nontrivial skyrmion number in these models, we lay the groundwork for understanding consequences of the quantum skyrmion Hall effect.Article Citation - Scopus: 1Magnetism in Twisted Triangular Bilayer Graphene Quantum Dots(Amer Physical Soc, 2025) Yağmurcukardeş, Mehmet; Cetin, Zebih; Yagmurcukardes, Mehmet; Park, Hee Chul; Peeters, Francois M.; da Costa, Diego R.; 04.04. Department of Photonics; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyUsing a tight-binding model along with the mean-field Hubbard method, we investigate the effect of twisting angle on the magnetic properties of twisted bilayer graphene (tBLG) quantum dots (QDs) with triangular shape and zigzag edges. We consider such QDs in two configurations: when their initial untwisted structure is a perfect AA- or AB-stacked BLG, referred to as AA- or AB-like dots. We find that AA-like dots exhibit an antiferromagnetic spin polarization for small twist angles, which transits to a ferromagnetic spin polarization beyond a critical twisting angle theta c. Our analysis shows that theta c decreases as the dot size increases, obeying a criterion, according to which once the maximum energy difference between electron and hole edge states (in the single-particle picture) is less than (U/gamma 0) t0, the spin-polarized energy levels are aligned ferromagnetically [U is the Hubbard parameter and gamma 0 (t0) the graphene intralayer (interlayer) hopping]. Unlike AA-like dots, AB-like dots exhibit finite magnetization for any twist angle. Furthermore, in the ferromagnetic polarization state, the ground net spin for both dot configurations agrees with the prediction from Lieb's theorem.Article Citation - WoS: 31Citation - Scopus: 44Angular Analysis of the Decay B+ → K+μ+μ- in Proton-Proton Collisions at √s=8 TeV(Amer Physical Soc, 2018) Sirunyan, A. M.; Tumasyan, A.; Adam, W.; Ambrogi, F.; Asilar, E.; Bergauer, T.; Woods, N.; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyThe angular distribution of the flavor-changing neutral current decay B+ -> K+mu(+)mu(-) is studied in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 8 TeV. The analysis is based on data collected with the CMS detector at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 20.5 fb(-1). The forward-backward asymmetry A(FB) of the dimuon system and the contribution F-H from the pseudoscalar, scalar, and tensor amplitudes to the decay width are measured as a function of the dimuon mass squared. The measurements are consistent with the standard model expectations.Article Citation - WoS: 15Citation - Scopus: 18Search for Supersymmetry in pp Collisions at √s=13 TeV in the Single-Lepton Final State Using the Sum of Masses of Large-Radius Jets(Amer Physical Soc, 2017) Sirunyan, A. M.; Tumasyan, A.; Adam, W.; Ambrogi, F.; Asilar, E.; Bergauer, T.; Woods, N.; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyResults are reported from a search for supersymmetric particles in proton-proton collisions in the final state with a single lepton, multiple jets, including at least one b-tagged jet, and large missing transverse momentum. The search uses a sample of proton-proton collision data at root s = 13 TeV recorded by the CMS experiment at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb(-1). The observed event yields in the signal regions are consistent with those expected from standard model backgrounds. The results are interpreted in the context of simplified models of supersymmetry involving gluino pair production, with gluino decay into either on- or off-mass-shell top squarks. Assuming that the top squarks decay into a top quark plus a stable, weakly interacting neutralino, scenarios with gluino masses up to about 1.9 TeV are excluded at 95% confidence level for neutralino masses up to about 1 TeV.
