Fracton-elasticity duality of two-dimensional superfluid vortex crystals: defect interactions and quantum melting

D Nguyen, A Gromov, S Moroz - SciPost Physics, 2020 - scipost.org
Employing the fracton-elastic duality, we develop a low-energy effective theory of a zero-
temperature vortex crystal in a two-dimensional bosonic superfluid which naturally …
