Triangular lattice quantum dimer model with variable dimer density

Abstract

Quantum dimer models are known to host topological quantum spin liquid phases, and it has recently become possible to simulate related $${{\mathbb{Z}}}_{2}$$ Z 2 gauge theories with Rydberg atoms. Yan et al. compute the phase diagram of an experimentally motivated quantum dimer model on a triangular lattice with fluctuating dimer density.
