We describe a one-dimensional disordered system, based on the Poschl-Teller potential, that exhibits a continuum of extended states which is independent of the random or correlated character of the sequence and of the length of the system.…

We study the DC conductivity of a weakly disordered 2D electron gas with two bands and spectral nodes, employing the field theoretical version of the Kubo--Greenwood conductivity formula. Disorder scattering is treated within the standard…
We study the chiral anomaly in disordered Weyl semimetals, where the broken translational symmetry prevents the direct application of Nielsen and Ninomiya's mechanism and disorder is strong enough that quantum effects are important. In the…
The effect of strong disorder on chiral-symmetric 3-dimensional lattice models is investigated via analytical and numerical methods. The phase diagrams of the models are computed using the non-commutative winding number, as functions of…
Chirality refers to the property that an object and its mirror image cannot overlap each other by spatial rotation and translation, and can be found in various research fields. We here propose chiral chaos and construct a chiral chaotic…
Recent transport experiments have established that two-dimensional electron systems with high-index partial Landau level filling, $\nu^{*} =\nu - \lbrack \nu \rbrack$, have ground states with broken orientational symmetry. In a mean-field…
We study the transport properties of two electrons in a quasi one-dimensional disordered wire. The electrons are subject to both, a disorder potential and a short range two-body interaction. Using the approach developed by Iida et al. […
We report direct experimental evidence that the insulating phase of a disordered, yet strongly interacting two-dimensional electron system (2DES) becomes unstable at low temperatures. As the temperature decreases, a transition from…

We show the existence of bound two-electron states in an almost depleted two-dimensional island. These two-electron states are carried by special compact configurations of four single-electron levels. The existence of these states does not…
By means of a coupled channel non-perturbative unitary approach, it is possible to extend the strong constrains of Chiral Perturbation Theory to higher energies. In particular, it is possible to reproduce the lowest lying resonances in…
We study the quasiperiodic Harper's model in order to give further support for a possible universality of the critical spectral statistics. At the mobility edge we numerically obtain a scale-invariant distribution of the bands $S$, which is…
In a tight binding framework, we analyze the characteristics of electronic states in strongly disordered materials (hopping sites are placed randomly with no local order) with tunneling matrix elements decaying exponentially in the atomic…
We study non-interacting systems with a power-law quasiparticle dispersion $\xi_{\bf k}\propto k^\alpha$ and a random short-range-correlated potential. We show that, unlike the case of lower dimensions, for $d>2\alpha$ there exists a…
With a tight binding treatment we examine amorphous conductors with gas-like disorder, or no correlations among the site positions. We consider an exponentially decaying hopping integral with range $l$, and the Inverse Participation Ratio…
We discuss the problem of characterizing "quantum disordered" ground states, obtained upon loss of antiferromagnetic order on general lattices in two spatial dimensions, with arbitrary electronic band structure. A key result is the response…
Bipartite quantum systems from the chiral universality classes admit topologically protected zero modes at point defects. However, in two-dimensional systems these states can be difficult to separate from compacton-like localized states…
