Equations built on fractional derivatives prove to be a powerful tool in the description of complex systems when the effects of singularity, fractal supports, and long-range dependence play a role. In this paper, we advocate an application…
This paper considers a one-dimensional generalized Allen-Cahn equation of the form \[ u_t = \varepsilon^2 (D(u)u_x)_x - f(u), \] where $\varepsilon>0$ is constant, $D=D(u)$ is a positive, uniformly bounded below diffusivity coefficient that…
We study the pure-gauge QCD phase transition at finite temperatures in the dual Ginzburg-Landau theory, an effective theory of QCD based on the dual Higgs mechanism. We formulate the effective potential at various temperatures by…
A Ginzburg-Landau theory is developed for unconventional superconductors with the three relevant singlet pairing channels. Various consequences of the sub-dominant channels (i.e., s- and d_{xy}-channels) are examined in detail. (1) In the…
I study phase transitions occuring in noncollinear magnets by means of a self-consistent screening approximation. The Ginzburg-Landau theory involves two N-component vector fields with two independent quartic couplings allowing a…
A dark energy model (DE) is proposed based on Ginzburg-Landau theory of phase transition (GLT). This model, GLTofDE, surprisingly provides a framework to study not only temporal tensions in cosmology e.g. $H_0$ tension but also spatial…
The magnetization reversal of Stoner particles is investigated from the point of view of nonlinear dynamics within the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert formulation. The following results are obtained. 1) We clarify that the so-called…
Crystal tensor operators, which tranform under U_q->0(sl(2)), in analogous way as the vectors of the crystal basis, are introduced. The Wigner-Eckart theorem for the crystal tensor is defined: the selection rules depend on the initial state…
We derive a finite temperature time-dependent effective theory for the phase $\theta$ of the pairing field, which is appropriate for a 2D conducting electron system with non-retarded d-wave attraction. As for s-wave pairing the effective…
We look at the influence of external fields on systems described by generic free energy functional of the order parameter. The external force may have arbitrary spatial dependence, and the order parameter coupling may be nonlinear. The…
We deal with a dynamical system \begin{align*} & u_{tt}-\Delta u+qu=0 && {\rm in}\,\,\,\Omega \times (0,T)\\ & u\big|_{t=0}=u_t\big|_{t=0}=0 && {\rm in}\,\,\,\overline \Omega\\ & \partial_\nu u = f && {\rm in}\,\,\,\partial\Omega \times…
We study the possibility to apply phenomenological approach to the description of magnetic transitions in UGe2 with the help of Landau free energy expanded to 8-th order in magnetisation. The analysis shows that for certain values of…
A tipping point can be defined as an abrupt shift in the properties or behaviour of a system. Tipping points in complex systems from a wide variety of scientific disciplines have been compared to phase transitions in physics, but consistent…
We comment on zero- and low-temperature structural phase transitions, expecting that these comments might be relevant not only for this structural case. We first consider a textbook model whose classical version is the only model for which…
We calculate the expectation values of the energy-momentum tensor T_{{\mu}{\nu}} for massive scalar and spinor fields, in the Minkowski-like vacuum states on the two flat spaces which are quotients of Minkowski space under the discrete…
I study the $H_{c2}$ transition within the Ginzburg-Landau model, with $m$-component order parameter $\psi_i$. I find a renormalized fixed point free energy, exact in $m\rightarrow\infty$ limit, suggestive of a $2$nd-order transition in…
We study the three-dimensional U(1)+Higgs theory (Ginzburg-Landau model) as an effective theory for finite temperature phase transitions from the 1 K scale of superconductivity to the relativistic scales of scalar electrodynamics. The…
A fundamental issue in the renormalization-group (RG) theory of critical phenomena concerns the allowed values of critical exponents that are consistent with the continuous nature of a phase transition. Here we conjecture a lower bound for…
The critical dynamics of superconductors in the charged regime is reconsidered within field-theory. For the dynamics the Ginzburg-Landau model with complex order parameter coupled to the gauge field suggested earlier [Lannert et al. Phys.…
A one-loop renormalization group (RG) analysis is performed for noncommutative Landau-Ginsburg theory in an arbitrary dimension. We adopt a modern version of the Wilsonian RG approach, in which a shell integration in momentum space bypasses…
