We study the stability of the ordinary Landau Fermi liquid phase for interacting, spinless electrons. We require causality and demand that the Pauli principle be obeyed. We find a phase diagram determined by two parameters: the particle…
We study the concept of spin heat accumulation in excited spin valves, more precisely the effective electron temperature that may become spin dependent, both in linear response and far from equilibrium. A temperature or voltage gradient…
An effective, low temperature, classical model for spin transport in the one-dimensional, gapped, quantum $O(3)$ non-linear $\sigma$-model is developed. Its correlators are obtained by a mapping to a model solved earlier by Jepsen. We…
We show that puzzling recent experimental results on spin diffusion in a strongly interacting atomic gas may be understood in terms of the predicted spin diffusion coefficient for a generic strongly interacting system. Three important…

We use optical transient-grating spectroscopy to measure spin diffusion of optically oriented electrons in bulk, semi-insulating GaAs(100). Trapping and recombination do not quickly deplete the photoexcited population. The spin diffusion…
Itinerant ferromagnetism in dilute Fermi gases is predicted to emerge at values of the gas parameter where second-order perturbation theory is not accurate enough to properly describe the system. We have revisited perturbation theory for…

Spin polarization of a two-dimensional electron gas with Rashba spin-orbit interaction, induced by a thermo-current, is considered theoretically. It is shown that a temperature gradient gives rise to an in-plane spin polarization of the…
In this work, we study the dynamics of an atomic harmonically trapped large-spin Fermi gas in one dimension (1D). We investigate the interplay of different collision processes. Coherent spin oscillations, driven by spin-changing forward…
We consider a dilute spin-polarized Fermi gas at positive temperature in dimensions $d\in\{1,2,3\}$. We show that the pressure of the interacting gas is bounded from below by that of the free gas plus, to leading order, an explicit term of…
Motivated by the recent success of optical trapping of alkali bosons, we have studied the zeroth sound modes of dilute Fermi gases with arbitrary spin-f, which are spin-S excitations ($0\leq S\leq 2f$). The dispersion of the mode (S)…
Spin relaxation in a strong-coupling regime (with respect to the spin system) is investigated in detail based on the spin-boson model in a stochastic limit. We find a bifurcation phenomenon in temperature dependence of relaxation constants,…
