High-mobility 2D electron systems in a perpendicular magnetic field exhibit zero resistance states (ZRS) when driven with microwave radiation. We study the nonequilibrium phase transition into this ZRS using phenomenological equations of…
We discuss here the famous paradox of a continuous power drainage from the source at the input of an otherwise lossless infinite transmission line. The solution of the paradox lies in the realization that in an open-circuit finite…
This study provides a foundational theoretical investigation into the mathematical existence and asymptotic properties of Ulanowicz's structural resilience. While ecological evidence suggests that sustainable systems gravitate toward an…
Non reciprocal spin waves have a chiral asymmetry so that their energy is different for two opposite wave vectors. They are found in atomically thin ferromagnetic overlayers with in plane magnetization and are linked to the anti-symmetric…
Mechanisms of resistivity can be divided into two basic classes: one is dissipative (like scattering on phonons) and another is quasi-elastic (like scattering on static impurities). They are often treated by the empirical Matthiessen rule,…
The FS of (ET)8Hg4Cl12(C6H5Br)2 can be regarded as a 2D network of compensated electron and hole orbits coupled by magnetic breakthrough. Simultaneous measurements of the interlayer magnetoresistance and magnetic torque have been performed…
We have studied the resistance of two-dimensional random percolating networks of zero-width metallic nanowires (rings or sticks). We toke into account the nanowire resistance per unit length, the junction (nanowire/nanowire contact)…
A two-dimensional topological insulator may arise in a centrosymmetric commensurate N\'{e}el antiferromagnet (AF), where staggered magnetization breaks both the elementary translation and time reversal, but retains their product as a…
The phase diagram of a 2D Josephson junction array with large substrate resistance, described by a quantum XY model, is studied by means of Fourier path-integral Monte Carlo. A genuine Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless transition is found up…
Magnetic reconnection can power spectacular high-energy astrophysical phenomena by producing non-thermal energy distributions in highly magnetized regions around compact objects. By means of two-dimensional fully kinetic particle-in-cell…
Many systems on our planet are known to shift abruptly and irreversibly from one state to another when they are forced across a "tipping point," such as mass extinctions in ecological networks, cascading failures in infrastructure systems,…
Altermagnets can replace ferromagnets in tunnel junctions, yielding large tunneling magnetoresistance, ultrafast switching, and low-power functionality. While most studies explore the linear-response regime, interesting features emerge at…
Two-dimensional (2D) topological electronic insulators are known to give rise to gapless edge modes, which underlie low energy dynamics, including electrical and thermal transport. This has been thoroughly investigated in the context of…
An approach by Stephen is used to investigate the critical properties of randomly diluted resistor networks near the percolation threshold by means of renormalized field theory. We reformulate an existing field theory by Harris and…
We study theoretically how electrons, coherently injected at one point on the boundary of a two-dimensional electron system, are focused by a perpendicular magnetic field $B$ onto another point on the boundary. Using the non-equilibrium…
Topological materials, such as topological insulators or semimetals, usually not only reveal the nontrivial properties of their electronic wavefunctions through the appearance of stable boundary modes, but also through very specific…
In time-reversal symmetric systems such as topological and higher-order topological insulators, 1D spin-momentum locked edge and hinge states are theoretically ``perfectly conducting'', being immune to backscattering by non-magnetic…
The persistent current, i.e. the equilibrium direct electric current circulating in realistic rings, some authors interpreted as dissipationless in spite of non-zero resistance of the rings, whereas the other one suppose that this current…
We investigate a simple variation of the series RLC circuit in which anti-parallel diodes replace the resistor. This results in a damped harmonic oscillator with a nonlinear damping term that is maximal at zero current and decreases with an…
We study the reflection and transmission properties of a system comprising two whispering-gallery mode resonators, each containing a Zeeman-split quantum dot and side-coupled to an optical fiber. Our results demonstrate that unidirectional…
