Although the isotope effect in superconducting materials is well-documented, changes in the magnetic properties of antiferromagnets due to isotopic substitution are seldom discussed and remain poorly understood. This is perhaps surprising…
We show that the inclusion of effects beyond Migdal's limit in the electron-phonon interaction naturally leads to an isotope effect for the effective mass $m^{*}$ of the charge carriers even much before reaching the polaron limit. This is…
For a completely general anisotropic order parameter (including changes of sign), we show that weak coupling theory is incompatible with high values of the maximum \Delta_{M} of the zero temperature gap as compared to the critical…
