Interaction-induced lattices for bound states: Designing flat bands, quantized pumps and higher-order topological insulators for doublons — •Grazia Salerno, Giandomenico Palumbo, Nathan Goldman, and Marco Di Liberto — Center for Nonlinear Phenomena and Complex Systems,Universit *e Libre de Bruxelles, CP 231, Campus Plaine, B-1050 Brussels, Belgium

Bound states of two interacting particles moving on a lattice can exhibit remarkable featuresthat are not captured by the underlying single-particle picture. Inspired by this phenomenon, weintroduce a novel framework by which genuine interaction-induced geometric and topological effectscan be realized in quantum-engineered systems. Our approach builds on the design of effectivelattices for the center-of-mass motion of two-body bound states, which can be created throughlong-range interactions. This general scenario is illustrated on several examples, where flat-bandlocalization, topological pumps and higher-order topological corner modes emerge from genuineinteraction effects. Our results pave the way for the exploration of interaction-induced topologicaleffects in a variety of platforms, ranging from ultracold gases to interacting photonic devices.
