We study theoretically the creation of knot structures in the polar phase of spin-1 Bose-Einstein condensates using the counterdiabatic protocol in an unusual fashion. We provide an analytic solution to the evolution of the external magnetic field that is used to imprint the knots. As confirmed by our simulations using the full three-dimensional spin-1 Gross-Pitaevskii equation, our method allows for the precise control of the Hopf charge as well as the creation time of the knots. The knots with Hopf charge exceeding unity display multiple nested Hopf links.

Three-dimensional splitting dynamics of giant vortices in Bose-Einstein condensates
Räbinä, Jukka; Kuopanportti, Pekko; Kivioja, Markus; Möttönen, Mikko; Rossi, Tuomo (American Physical Society, 2018)We study the splitting dynamics of giant vortices in dilute Bose-Einstein condensates by numerically integrating the three-dimensional Gross-Pitaevskii equation in time. By taking advantage of tetrahedral tiling in the ... -
Attractive versus repulsive interactions in the Bose-Einstein condensation dynamics of relativistic field theories
Berges, J.; Boguslavski, Kirill; Chatrchyan, A.; Jaeckel, J. (American Physical Society, 2017)We study the impact of attractive self-interactions on the nonequilibrium dynamics of relativistic quantum fields with large occupancies at low momenta. Our primary focus is on Bose-Einstein condensation and nonthermal ... -
Three-dimensional skyrmions in spin-2 Bose–Einstein condensates
Tiurev, Konstantin; Ollikainen, Tuomas; Kuopanportti, Pekko; Nakahara, Mikio; Hall, David S.; Möttönen, Mikko (IOP Publishing; Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft, 2018)We introduce topologically stable three-dimensional skyrmions in the cyclic and biaxial nematic phases of a spin-2 Bose–Einstein condensate. These skyrmions exhibit exceptionally high mapping degrees resulting from the ... -
Counterdiabatic vortex pump in spinor Bose-Einstein condensates
Ollikainen, T.; Masuda, S.; Möttönen, Mikko; Nakahara, M. (American Physical Society, 2017)Topological phase imprinting is a well-established technique for deterministic vortex creation in spinor BoseEinstein condensates of alkali-metal atoms. It was recently shown that counterdiabatic quantum control may accelerate ...
