We study dimensional trends in ground states for soft-matter systems. Specifically, using a high-dimensional version of Parrinello-Rahman dynamics, we investigate the behavior of the Gaussian core model in up to eight dimensions. The…
We describe the formation of short-wavelength mesophases in a two-dimensional core-softened particle system. By proposing a series of specific ansatz for each relevant phase, we performed a variational analysis to obtain the ground-state…
In previous work [Phys. Rev. X 5, 021020 (2015)], it was shown that stealthy hyperuniform systems can be regarded as hard spheres in Fourier-space in the sense that the the structure factor is exactly zero in a spherical region around the…
We study the Gibbs statistics of high-density hard-core configurations on a unit square lattice $\mathbb{Z}^2$, for a general Euclidean exclusion distance $D$. As a by-product, we solve the disk-packing problem on $\mathbb{Z}^2$ for disks…
Weak limits as the density tends to infinity of classical ground states of integrable pair potentials are shown to minimize the mean-field energy functional. By studying the latter we derive global properties of high-density ground state…
We study the softcore extended Bose Hubbard model in a two-dimensional triangular lattice by using the quantum Monte Carlo methods. The ground state phase diagram of the system exhibits a very fruitful structure. Except the Mott insulating…
We show that the Cauchy--Born model of a single-species 2-lattice is second order if the atomistic and continuum kinematics are connected in a novel way. Our proof uses a generalization to 2-lattices of the point symmetry of Bravais…
We develop a theory of non-relativistic bosons in two spatial dimensions with a weak short range attractive interaction. In the limit as the range of the interaction becomes small, there is an ultra-violet divergence in the problem. We…
Correlated systems with hexagonal layered structures have come to fore with renewed interest in Cobaltates, transition-metal dichalcogenides and GdI2. While superconductivity, unusual metal and possible exotic states (prevented from long…
Frustration in classical spin models can lead to degenerate ground states without long range order. In reciprocal space, these degeneracies appear as manifolds of wave vectors, their dimensionality increasing with the degree of frustration…
We prove that quantum many-body systems on a one-dimensional lattice locally relax to Gaussian states under non-equilibrium dynamics generated by a bosonic quadratic Hamiltonian. This is true for a large class of initial states - pure or…
We consider gauge theories in a strong external magnetic like field. This situation can appear either in conventional four-dimensional theories, but also naturally in extra-dimensional theories and especially in brane world models. We show…
This paper supplements and partly extends an earlier publication, Phys. Rev. Lett. 95, 265501 (2005). In $d$-dimensional continuous space we describe the infinite volume ground state configurations (GSCs) of pair interactions $\vfi$ and…
We study the ground state (GS) many-body quantum entanglement of two different transverse field models on a quasi-2D square lattice relevant to a Hydrogen-bonded crystal, i.e, squaric acid. We measure the genuine multipartite…
We have studied the ground state of the two-dimensional (2D) Hubbard model by using a quantum monte method paying special attention to the shell structure effect on finite size clusters. Our calculations show there is a gap for spin…
The ground and low-lying collective states of a rotating system of $N=3$ bosons harmonically confined in quasi-two-dimension and interacting via repulsive finite-range Gaussian potential is studied in weakly to moderately interacting…
We study several exotic systems, including the X-cube model, on a flat three-torus with a twist in the $xy$-plane. The ground state degeneracy turns out to be a sensitive function of various geometrical parameters. Starting from a lattice,…
In strongly-coupled theories with no small parameters, there are factors of 4\pi that appear when the couplings of the low-energy effective lagrangian are written in units of the effective cutoff \Lambda. These numerical factors can be…
We study gradient field models on an integer lattice with non-convex interactions. These models emerge in distinct branches of physics and mathematics under various names. In particular, as zero-mass lattice (Euclidean) quantum field…
We numerically study dynamical properties of the one-component Gaussian Core Model in the supercooled states. We find that nucleation is suppressed as density increases. Concomitantly the system exhibits glassy slow dynamics characterized…
