V. IMPLEMENTATION
As he physics o Eq. (2) does no ely on pola iza ion,
i can be ob ained in pla o ms beyond op ical ones [7,8,10–
12] such as cold a oms in s a e-dependen la ices [69–71],
whe e such complex loops ha e al eady been enginee ed
[72], o ci cui QED pla o ms [73–79]. In Fig. 8we show
a p oposal o design his geome y wi h complex couplings
using supe conduc ing qubi s as implemen ed o a single loop
in Re . [80]. Fo he qubi - esona o in e ac ion, we assume
ha he qubi is capaci i ely coupled o an LC esona o ,
whe eas he esona o s a e induc i ely coupled ia a SQUID-
ype loop based on Josephson junc ions [81,82]. The junc ions

dependen coupling Hamil onian be ween wo esona o s:

Se ing ω1=ω,ω2=ω+δ, and J( )=Jcos(δ +φ),
and assuming J,δ ω, we can a e age ou he ime depen-
dence o J( ), ge ing he Hamil onian we wan o simula e;

Thus, conca ena ing se e al o hese cells and placing selec-
i ely he qubi s, as done in Re s. [84,85] o simple coupled-
ca i y a ays, one can explo e he phenomena p edic ed in his

VI. CONCLUSIONS
We ha e s udied he p ope ies o QEs coupled o a min-
imal one-dimensional model b eaking ime- e e sal symme-

Thus, hese sys ems can be an al e na i e way o explo ing
