We investigate a mechanism to produce superconductivity by strong purely repulsive interactions for flat dispersion $\varepsilon \sim k^4$, without using pairing instability in Fermi-liquid. The resulting superconductors break both…
We establish a duality between a pair of mirabolic quantum groups, i.e., the mirabolic counterpart of quantum Howe duality.
Analysis of experimental data shows that the metal--insulator transition is possible in materials composed of atoms of only metallic elements. Such a transition may occur in spite of the high concentration of valence electrons. It requires…
Masses and mixings of quarks and leptons differ wildly from one another. Thus it is all the more challenging to search for some hidden attribute that they may share.
We use extensive first-principles quantum mechanical calculations to show that, although the static lattice and harmonic vibrational energies are almost identical, the anharmonic vibrational energy of hexagonal ice is significantly lower…
Molecules that only differ by their chirality, so called enantiomers, often possess different properties with respect to their biological function. Therefore, the separation of enantiomers presents a prominent challenge in molecular biology…
The chiral theory of mesons of two flavors have been extended to mesons containing strange flavor. Two new mass relations between vector and axial-vector mesons have been obtained. In chiral limit, the physical processes of normal parity…
The existence of pseudomagnetic helicons is predicted for strained Dirac and Weyl materials. The corresponding collective modes are reminiscent of the usual helicons in metals in strong magnetic fields but can exist even without a magnetic…
The entanglement of two atoms is studied when the two atoms are coupled to a single-mode thermal field with different couplings. The different couplings of two atoms are in favor of entanglement preparation: it not only makes the case of…
Gemini (dimeric) surfactants are composed of two monomeric surfactant molecules linked by a spacer chain. Their self-assembly behavior differs qualitatively from that of monomeric surfactants. We review the various theoretical attempts to…
An unified flavour model based on U(2) as flavour group is described. Besides to explain the main characteristics of the fermion spectrum, the model is predictive and agrees quantitatively with experimental data in flavour physics.
We consider the possibility that sterile neutrinos exist and admit a description as unparticles; we call these {\em unsterile} neutrinos. We then examine the nature of neutrino oscillations in a model where an unsterile can mix with two…
We show that the formation of the wetting layer and the experimentally observed continuous shift of the H2O-OH balance towards molecular water at increasing coverage on a TiO2(110) surface can be rationalized on a molecular level. The…
We give a comparison between the Avila-Gou\"ezel-Yoccoz norm and the Teichm\"uller norm on the principal stratum of holomorphic quadratic differentials.
We study the quantum melting of the two-dimensional Wigner crystal using a fixed node quantum Monte-Carlo approach. In addition to the two already known phases (Fermi liquid at large density and Wigner crystal at low density), we find a…
In this article we realize T-duality as a geometric transform of bundles of abelian group stacks. The transform applies in the algebro-geometric setting as well as the topological setting, and thus makes precise the link between the models…
We present one point of contact between the standard theory of neutrino oscillations and the alternative one, in which flavor neutrinos are described by states with definite masses. We show that both theories give the same results for…
We report a simple technique for the synthesis of uniaxially textured, metastable hexagonal close-packed-like uranium thin films with thicknesses between 175-2800 \r{A}. The initial structure and texture of the layers have been studied via…
In vacuum the ``chiral neutrino oscillations'', i.e. the periodic transitions between the left- and right-handed states do not occur. The produced state differs from the chiral component that appear in the Lagrangian of interactions and…
Consider three qubits A, B, and C which may be entangled with each other. We show that there is a trade-off between A's entanglement with B and its entanglement with C. This relation is expressed in terms of a measure of entanglement called…
