Deciphering the spectral collapse in two-photon Rabi model

Abstract In this communication, based upon a squeezed-state trial wave function, we have performed a simple variational study of the spectral collapse of the two-photon Rabi model. Our analysis indicates that the light-matter interaction and the spin-flipping effectively constitute two competing imp...
