We consider a planar system of fermions, at finite temperature and density, under a static magnetic field parallel to the two-dimensional plane. This magnetic field generates a Zeeman effect and, then, a spin polarization of the system. The…

We show that valley degeneracy in rotationally faulted multilayer graphene may be broken in the presence of a magnetic field and interlayer commensurations. This happens due to a simultaneous breaking of both time-reversal and inversion…

Motivated by the study of quantum fields in a Friedman-Robertson-Walker (FRW) spacetime, the one-loop effective action for a scalar field defined in the ultrastatic manifold $R\times H^3/\Gamma$, $H^3/\Gamma$ being the finite volume,…
Vacuum polarization is a part of the initial-state radiative correction for the cross-section of $e^+e^-$ annihilation processes. In the energy region in the vicinity of narrow resonances $J/\psi$ and $\psi(3686)$, the vacuum polarization…
We propose a novel matrix regularization for tensor fields. In this regularization, tensor fields are described as rectangular matrices and both area-preserving diffeomorphisms and local rotations of the orthonormal frame are realized as…
The recent low-rank prior based models solve the tensor completion problem efficiently. However, these models fail to exploit the local patterns of tensors, which compromises the performance of tensor completion. In this paper, we propose a…
