Applying a time-periodic magnetic field to the standard ferromagnetic Curie-Weiss model brings the spin system in a steady out-of-equilibrium condition. We recall how the hysteresis gets influenced by the amplitude and the frequency of that…
We present a theoretical description of a system of many spins strongly coupled to a bosonic chain. We rely on the use of a spin-wave theory describing the Gaussian fluctuations around the mean-field solution, and focus on spin-boson chains…
We present here a detailed numerical study of the dynamical behaviour of `soft' uncompressed grains in a granular chain where the grains interact via the intrinsically nonlinear Hertz force. It is well known that such a chain supports the…
The Curie-Weiss model is an exactly soluble model of ferromagnetism that allows one to study in detail the thermodynamic functions, in particular their properties in the neighbourhood of the critical temperature. In this model every…
We investigate the zero-temperature quantum phase transition of the random bond Ising chain in a transverse magnetic field. Its critical properties are identical to those of the McCoy-Wu model, which is a classical Ising model in two…

Analytical calculations based on a Landau Level (LL) picture are reported for a many-electron system moving in an interface (with a finite-width Quantum Well (QW)) and in the presence of an external perpendicular magnetic field. They lead…

Interactions induced by electromagnetic fluctuations, such as van der Waals and Casimir forces, are of universal nature present at any length scale between any types of systems with finite dimensions. Such interactions are important not…
The van der Waals (VDW) equation of state predicts the existence of a first-order liquid-gas phase transition and contains a critical point. The VDW equation with Fermi statistics is applied to a description of the nuclear matter. The…
Moir\'e lattices which consist of parallel but staggered periodic lattices have been extensively explored due to their salient physical properties, such as van Hove singularities[1, 2], commensurable incommensurable transitions[3],…
We study theoretically a driven dissipative one-dimensional XXZ spin$-1/2$ chain with dipole coupling and a tunable strength of the Ising and XY interaction. Within a mean-field approximation, we find a rich phase diagram with uniform, spin…
Motivated by recent experiments on quasi-1D vanadium oxides, we study quantum phase transitions in a one-dimensional spin-orbital model describing a Haldane chain and a classical Ising chain locally coupled by the relativistic spin-orbit…
We study the level statistics of an interacting multi-qubit system, namely the kicked Ising spin chain, in the regime of quantum chaos. Long range quasi-energy level statistics show effects analogous to the ones observed in semi-classical…
We prove the existence of a phase transition in dimension $d>1$ in a continuum particle system interacting with a pair potential containing a modified attractive Kac potential of range $\gamma^{-1}$, with $\gamma>0$. This transition is…
Various phase transitions in models for coupled charge-density waves are investigated by means of the $\epsilon$-expansion, mean-field theory, and Monte Carlo simulations. At zero temperature the effective action for the system with…
A particle beam may undergo an anomalous spatial shift when it is reflected at an interface. The shift forms a vector field defined in the two-dimensional interface momentum space. We show that, although the shift vector at individual…
The mean field theory, in its different hues, form one of the most useful tools for calculating the single-body physical properties of a many-body system. It provides important information, like critical exponents, of the systems that do…
The dynamics and the thermodynamics of particles/spins interacting via long-range forces display several unusual features with respect to systems with short-range interactions. The Hamiltonian Mean Field (HMF) model, a Hamiltonian system of…
