EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Symmetric estimator for discrete self-energy of discrete many-body systems

Aleksandrs Zacinskis, Frank T. Ebel, Mathias Pelz, Fabian B. Kugler, Karsten Held, Jan von Delft, Maurits W. Haverkort, and Andreas Gleis

Phys. Rev. B 114, 285111 (2026) - Published 10 November, 2026

The self-energy is notoriously difficult to compute, especially in many-body systems with a discrete spectrum, where the Dyson equation often produces noncausal results. Here, the authors obtain a discrete spectral representation of the self-energy that is causal by construction, preserves sum rules, and requires no artificial broadening. Tested with four different impurity solvers, the approach significantly improves accuracy and enables a fully discrete formulation of dynamical mean-field theory.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Radiative spin caloritronics in nonreciprocal many-body systems

Philippe Ben-Abdallah

Phys. Rev. B 114, 285402 (2026) - Published 4 November, 2026

The author predicts here the spin thermal Hall effect in nonreciprocal photonic many-body systems, where radiative heat transport generates a transverse accumulation of photon spin angular momentum. This effect and its inverse are shown to form an Onsager–Casimir reciprocal pair, establishing a fundamental connection between heat and photon-spin transport. Thermodynamic constraints further reveal universal bounds on spin–heat conversion and introduce a figure of merit for its efficiency, opening new perspectives for spin-controlled thermal radiation and photonic thermal devices.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Critical states and anomalous wave transport in an aperiodic polariton monotile

Valtýr Kári Daníelsson and Helgi Sigurdsson

Phys. Rev. B 114, 285404 (2026) - Published 4 November, 2026

Aperiodic tilings lie between crystalline order and disorder, giving rise to unusual wave phenomena. Here, the authors investigate 2D wave transport in the recently discovered Hat monotile based on exciton-polariton lattices, revealing localized, critical, and extended states within its fractal spectrum. Simulations reveal anomalous wave spreading, ranging from superdiffusive to near-subdiffusive transport. The authors propose an optical pump-probe approach to explore these effects experimentally, opening new avenues for studying critical phenomena in reconfigurable polariton lattices.
