We investigate the properties of a two-dimensional quasicrystal in the presence of a uniform magnetic field. In this configuration, the density of states (DOS) displays a Hofstadter butterfly-like structure when it is represented as a…
Hund's metal is one kind of correlated metal, in which the electronic correlation is strongly influenced by the Hund's interaction. At high temperatures, while the charge and orbital degrees of freedom are quenched, the spin degrees of…
We consider a model of a holographic braneworld universe in which a cosmological fluid occupies a 3+1 dimensional brane located at the boundary of the asymptotic AdS$_5$ bulk. We combine the AdS/CFT correspondence and the second…
We present a model that generalizes the Bose-Fermi mapping for strongly correlated 1D bosons in an optical lattice, to cases in which the average number of atoms per site is larger than one. This model gives an accurate account of…
Two of the most prominent phases of bosonic matter are the superfluid with perfect flow and the insulator with no flow. A now decades-old mystery unexpectedly arose when experimental observations indicated that bosons could organize into…
We study the Bose-Fermi mixture with infinitely boson-boson repulsion and finite boson-Fermion repulsion. By using a generalized Jordan-Wigner transformation, we show that the system can be mapped to a repulsive Hubbard model and thus can…
The electronic energy structures and magnetic properties of layered superconductors $R$Ni$_2$B$_2$C, $R$Fe$_4$Al$_8$ and FeSe are systematically studied, by using the density functional theory (DFT). The calculations allowed us to reveal a…
The boson-fermion model, describing a mixture of itinerant electrons hybridizing with tightly bound electron pairs represented as hard-core bosons, is here generalized with the inclusion of a term describing on-site Coulomb repulsion…
With Girardeau's Fermi-Bose mapping, we find the exact ground states of hard-core bosons residing in a one dimensional periodic potential. The analysis of these ground states shows that when the number of bosons $N$ is commensurate with the…
We test a non equilibrium approach to study the behavior of a Bose-Fermi mixture of alkali atoms in the presence of a Feshbach resonance between bosons and fermions. To this end we derive the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov (HFB) equations of…
The Cooper pair Bose metal (CPBM) is a non-superfluid quantum phase in which uncondensed fermion pairs form a "Bose surface" in momentum space. We investigate the CPBM in the two-dimensional spin-anisotropic attractive Hubbard model by…
Fermions in two-dimensions (2D) when subject to anisotropic spin-dependent hopping can potentially give rise to unusual paired states in {\it unpolarized} mixtures that can behave as non-Fermi liquids. One possibility is a fully paired…
We consider the ground state of the homogeneous electron gas and we prove that a Hartree-Fock solution, motivated by previous simulations, has lower energy than the Fermi gas in the large density limit. This solution is a metallic phase :…
We numerically study the ground state phase diagram of the two-dimensional hard-core Bose-Hubbard model with nearest ($V_1$) and next nearest neighbor ($V_2$) repulsions. In particular, we focus on the quarter-filled phases where one…
In the presence of nonrelativistic supersymmetry, a sharp fermionic collective mode similar to the Goldstino mode in high-energy physics was proposed to be realized in Bose-Fermi mixtures. The Goldstino mode is relaxed (a.k.a. decays) if…
Based on the matrix product states method, we investigate numerically the ground state properties of one-dimensional mixtures of repulsive bosons and spin-imbalanced attractive fermions, the latter being in the…
We use a combination of numeric and analytic techniques to determine the groun d state phase diagram of the Bose--Hubbard Hamiltonian with longer range repulsi ve interactions. At half filling one finds superfluidity and an insulating solid…
The microscopic nature of an insulating state in the vicinity of a superconducting state, in the presence of disorder, is a hotly debated question. While the simplest scenario proposes that Coulomb interactions destroy the Cooper pairs at…
Different types of superfluid ground states have been investigated in systems of two species of fermions with Fermi surfaces that do not match. This study is relevant for cold atomic systems, condensed matter physics and quark matter. In…
Superconductivity arises when electrons form Cooper pairs with phase coherence. In contrast, a lack of phase coherence in Cooper pairs can lead to an uncondensed metallic ground state known as the Bose metal state. In this study, we…
