Collisional reservoirs are becoming a major tool for modelling open quantum systems. In their simplest implementation, an external agent switches on, for a given time, the interaction between the system and a specimen from the reservoir.…

We investigate within density functional theory various physical properties of the zero-temperature unitary Fermi gas which critically depend on the presence of a dispersive gradient term in the equation of state. First, we consider the…

A classical lattice spin model wrapped on a cylinder is profitably viewed as a chain of rings of spins. From that perspective, mutual information between ring configurations plays much the same role as spin-spin correlation functions in…

Kinetic properties of a two dimensional model of fermions interacting with antiferromagnetic spin excitations near the quantum critical point (QCP) are considered. The temperature or doping are assumed to be sufficiently high, such that the…

We consider the two-body problem in a periodic potential, and study the bound-state dispersion of a spin-$\uparrow$ fermion that is interacting with a spin-$\downarrow$ fermion through a short-range attractive interaction. Based on a…
We study in a nonperturbative fashion the thermodynamics of a unitary Fermi gas over a wide range of temperatures and spin polarizations. To this end, we use the complex Langevin method, a first principles approach for strongly coupled…
The Casimir force between two perfectly reflecting parallel plates is considered. In a recent paper we presented generalised physical boundary conditions describing perfectly reflecting parallel plates. These boundary conditions are…
We argue that the temperature inversion symmetry present in the original Casimir setup and also in other Casimir systems for which symmetrical boundary conditions are imposed is not related to the duality transformations that in the context…
We study the diffusion of Brownian particles on the surface of a sphere and compute the distribution of solid angles enclosed by the diffusing particles. This function describes the distribution of geometric phases in two state quantum…
We examine the renormalized free energy of the free Dirac fermion and the free scalar on a (2+1)-dimensional geometry $\mathbb{R} \times \Sigma$, with $\Sigma$ having spherical topology and prescribed area. Using heat kernel methods, we…
We consider the distribution of waiting times between non-interacting fermions on a tight-binding chain. We calculate the waiting time distribution for a quantum point contact and find a cross-over from Wigner-Dyson statistics at full…
We study fermion reflection at a phase wave which is formed during a bubble collision in a first order phase transition. We calculate the reflection and the transmission coefficients by solving the Dirac equation with the phase wave…
