We demonstrate the validity of the current fluctuation theorem for a double quantum dot surrounded by four terminals within the Born-, Markov- and secular approximations beyond the Coulomb-blockade regime. The electronic tunneling to two…

We argue that both pocket-disappearing and neck-disrupting types of Lifshitz transitions can be realized in two-dimensional spin-density wave models for underdoped cuprates, and study both types of transitions with impurity scattering…
We study the Casimir-Lifshitz force and the radiative heat transfer occurring between two arbitrary bodies, each one held at a given temperature, surrounded by environmental radiation at a third temperature. The system, in stationary…
We study current correlation functions in a diffusive junction out of equilibrium. We calculate corrections to the electric current and to the zero frequency shot noise due to electron-electron interactions. Contrary to the equilibrium…
A common, yet unmodelled experimental phenomenon is explained first through the experimental data and then through modelling efforts. The phenomenon is a large, temporary loss in voltage during constant current discharge. This effect can be…
The interplay of electronic and structural degrees of freedom in solids is a topic of intense research. Experience and intuition suggest that structural changes drive conduction electron behavior, because the large number of valence…
We study the probability distribution of a current flowing through a diffusive system connected to a pair of reservoirs at its two ends. Sufficient conditions for the occurrence of a host of possible phase transitions both in and out of…

Statistical classical mechanics and quantum mechanics are developed and well-known theories that represent a basis for modern physics. The two described theories are well known and have been well studied. As these theories contain numerous…
Some works have appeared in recent accredited literature considering the possibility of macroscopic violations of the second law in simulated as well as really executed experiments. We argue the inexistence of such violations in experiments…

We consider the Casimir force in configurations with magnetic metal plates and analyze the reasons why the predictions of the Lifshitz theory using the dielectric permittivity of the Drude model are inconsistent with the measurement data.…
Employing the duality between the momentum distribution $n(p)$ and density distribution $\rho(r)$, problems of theory of systems with flat bands, pinned to the Fermi surface, are discussed. We propose that the Lifshitz topological phase…
