We show that a result equivalent to Overhauser's famous Hartree-Fock instability theorem can be established for the case of a two-dimensional electron gas in the presence of Rashba spin-obit coupling. In this case it is the spatially…

In one-dimensional disordered systems with a chiral symmetry it is well-known that electrons at energy $E = 0$ avoid localization and simultaneously exhibit a diverging density of states (DOS). For $N$ coupled chains with…
We demonstrate that discrepancies between predicted low-energy quasiparticle properties in disordered 2D d-wave superconductors occur because of the unanticipated importance of disorder model details and normal-state particle-hole symmetry.…
