We consider a system of two-dimensional electrons strongly localized by disorder. Interactions create a gap in the average tunneling density of states $\nu(E)$ at energies, E, close to the Fermi level. We derive a system of self-consistent…
An electron is usually considered to have only one form of kinetic energy, but could it have more, for its spin and charge, by exciting other electrons? In one dimension (1D), the physics of interacting electrons is captured well at low…

The phase diagram of the high-Tc cuprates is dominated by the Mott insulating phase of the parent compounds. As we approach it from large doping, a standard Fermi-liquid gradually turns into a bad non-Fermi liquid metal, a process which…
High temperature superconductivity in cuprates arises from doping a parent Mott insulator by electrons or holes. A central issue is how the Mott gap evolves and the low-energy states emerge with doping. Here we report angle-resolved…
The 2D TI edge states are considered within the Volkov-Pankratov (VP) Hamiltonian. A smooth transition between TI and OI is assumed. The edge states are formed in the total gap of homogeneous 2D material. A pair of these states are of…

Highly mismatched alloys (HMA's) are a class of semiconductor alloys with large electronegativity differences between the alloying elements. We predict the absorption spectrum due to transitions between the split bands of a doped highly…
The superconducting gap is the fundamental parameter that characterizes the superconducting state, and its symmetry is a direct consequence of the mechanism responsible for Cooper pairing. Here we discuss about angle-resolved photoemission…
We study the low frequency absorption cross section of spherically symmetric nonextremal d-dimensional black holes. In the presence of alpha' corrections, this quantity must have an explicit dependence on the Hawking temperature of the form…

Topological surface-states can acquire an energy gap when time-reversal symmetry is broken by interfacing with a magnetic insulator. This gap has yet to be measured. Such topological-magnetic insulator heterostructures can host a quantized…
