We have studied systematically the influence of particle-hole symmetric and asymmetric kinetic terms on the ordered phases that we may observe competing or coexisting in a tetragonal system. We show that there are precise patterns of…
We present numerical evidence for an extended order parameter and conjugate field for the dynamic phase transition in a Ginzburg-Landau mean-field model driven by an oscillating field. The order parameter, previously taken to be the…
We consider Landau-Ginzburg models with possibly different superpotentials glued together along one-dimensional defect lines. Defects preserving B-type supersymmetry can be represented by matrix factorisations of the difference of the…
The standard Ginzburg-Landau model of competing-order superconductors is studied. It is observed that this model possesses two distinct species of vortex, and consequently has two distinct integer valued topological charges. A simple point…
Through Quantum Monte Carlo simulation, we study the biquadratic-interaction model with the SU(2) symmetry in two and three dimensions. The zero-temperature phase diagrams for the two cases are identical and exhibit an intermediate phase…
The steady states of the two-species (positive and negative particles) asymmetric exclusion model of Evans, Foster, Godreche and Mukamel are studied using Monte Carlo simulations. We show that mean-field theory does not give the correct…
A global analysis of the scaling behaviour of a system with a scalar order parameter quenched to zero temperature is obtained by numerical simulation of the Ginzburg-Landau equation with conserved and non conserved order parameter. A rich…
The field algebra of the minimal models of W-algebras is amenable to a very simple description as a polynomial algebra generated by few elementary fields, corresponding to order parameters. Using this description, the complete…
Without any knowledge of the symmetry existing in the system, we derive the exact forms of the order parameters which show long-range correlation in the ground state of the one-dimensional extended Hubbard model using a quantum information…

Using the inverse period map of the Gauss-Manin connection associated with $QH^{*}\bigl(\mathbb{CP}^2\bigr)$ and the Dubrovin construction of Landau-Ginzburg superpotential for Dubrovin-Frobenius manifolds, we construct a one-dimensional…
The short ranged antiferromagnetism recently seen in UPt_3 is proved incompatible with two dimensional (2D) order parameter models that take the antiferromagnetism as a symmetry breaking field. To adjust to the local moment direction, the…
The ordinary Landau problem consists of describing a charged particle in time-independent magnetic field. In the present case the problem is generalized onto time-dependent uniform electric fields with time-dependent mass and harmonic…
We propose entropic order parameters that capture the physics of generalized symmetries and phases in QFT's. We do it through an analysis of simple properties (additivity and Haag duality) of the net of operator algebras attached to…
We critically reconsider the Landau-Ginzburg-Wilson (LGW) approach to critical phenomena in the presence of gauge symmetries. In the LGW framework, to obtain the universal features of a continuous transition, one identifies the order…
An SU(2) lattice gauge theory with two doublets of complex scalar fields is considered. All continuous symmetries are identified and, using the nonperturbative methods of lattice field theory, the phase diagram is mapped out by direct…
The phase diagram of the Gross-Neveu model in 1+1 dimensions is studied using Ginzburg-Landau expansion. It predicts several features of the exact phase diagram correctly even at low orders. It is shown that increasing the order of the…
We study the class of indecomposable two-dimensional Landau-Ginzburg theories with (2,2) supersymmetry and central charge c < 6 with the aim of classifying all such theories up to marginal deformations. Our results include cases overlooked…
