Quantum entangled ground states of two spinor Bose-Einstein condensates

We revisit in detail the non-mean-field ground-state phase diagram for a binary mixture of spin-1 Bose-Einstein condensates including quantum fluctuations. The non-commuting terms in the spin-dependent Hamiltonian under single spatial mode approximation make it difficult to obtain exact eigenstates. Utilizing the spin z-component conservation and the total spin angular momentum conservation, we numerically derive the information of the building blocks and evaluate von Neumann entropy to quantify the ground states. The mean-field phase boundaries are found to remain largely intact, yet the ground states show fragmented and entangled behaviors within large parameter spaces of interspecies spin-exchange and singlet-pairing interactions.Comment: 7 pages, 5 figure

Rigorous Proof of Pseudospin Ferromagnetism in Two-Component Bosonic Systems with Component-Independent Interactions

For a two-component bosonic system, the components can be mapped onto a pseudo-spin degree of freedom with spin quantum number S=1/2. We provide a rigorous proof that for a wide-range of real Hamiltonians with component independent mass and interaction, the ground state is a ferromagnetic state with pseudospin fully polarized. The spin-wave excitations are studied and found to have quadratic dispersion relations at long wave length.Comment: 4 pages, no figur

A mechanism to pin skyrmions in chiral magnets

We propose a mechanism to pin skyrmions in chiral magnets by introducing local maximum of magnetic exchange strength, which can be realized in chiral magnetic thin films by engineering the local density of itinerate electrons. Thus we find a way to artificially control the position of a single skyrmion in chiral magnetic thin films. The stationary properties and the dynamical pinning and depinning processes of an isolated skyrmion around a pinning center are studied. We do a series of simulations to show that the critical current to depin a skyrmion has linearly dependence on the pinning strength. We also estimate the critical current to have order of magnitude 10^{7}\sim10^{8}A/m^{2}
