The rate of energy transfer in donor-acceptor systems can be manipulated via the common interaction with the confined electromagnetic modes of a micro-cavity. We analyze the competition between the near-field short range dipole-dipole energy exchange processes and the cavity mediated long-range interactions in a simplified model consisting of effective two-level quantum emitters that could be relevant for molecules in experiments under cryogenic conditions. We find that free-space collective incoherent interactions, typically associated with sub- and superradiance, can modify the traditional resonant energy transfer scaling with distance. The same holds true for cavity-mediated collective incoherent interactions in a weak-coupling but strong-cooperativity regime. In the strong coupling regime, we elucidate the effect of pumping into cavity polaritons and analytically identify an optimal energy flow regime characterized by equal donor/acceptor Hopfield coefficients in the middle polariton. Finally we quantify the build-up of quantum correlations in the donor-acceptor system via the two-qubit concurrence as a measure of entanglement.

We present an analytical model to account for the deformation-induced inertial dynamics of a magnetic vortex. The model is based on a deformation of the vortex core profile based on the Döring kinetic field, whereby the deformation amplitudes are promoted to dynamical variables in a collective-coordinate approach that provides a natural extension to the Thiele model. This extended model describes complex transients due to inertial effects and the variation of the effective mass with velocity. The model also provides a quantitative description of the inertial dynamics leading up to vortex core reversal, which is analogous to the Walker transition in domain wall dynamics. Our work paves the way for a standard prescription for describing the inertial effects of topological magnetic solitons.
