It is well known that the hydrodynamics of a zero-temperature superfluid can be formulated in field-theoretic terms, relating for example the superfluid four-velocity to the gradient of the phase of a Bose-condensed scalar field. At nonzero…
In a Galilean superfluid, the depletion of superfluid density with rising temperature can be attributed to thermally excited non-interacting phonons. For systems without Galilean symmetry, it has been shown [1] that ``phonon wind" is no…
In this article we extend the test of Hamiltonian Renormalisation proposed in this series of articles to the D-dimensional case using a massive free scalar field. The concepts we introduce are explicitly computed for the D=2 case but…
We present a general scheme to approach the space - time evolution of deformations, currents, and the electric field in charge density waves related to appearance of intrinsic topological defects: dislocations, their loops or pairs, and…
We propose a new approach to the theory of normal forms for Hamiltonian systems near a non-resonant elliptic singular point. We consider the space of all Hamiltonian functions with such an equilibrium position at the origin and construct a…
Assuming an effective quadratic Hamiltonian, we derive an approximate, linear stochastic equation of motion for the density-fluctuations in liquids, composed of overdamped Brownian particles. From this approach, time dependent two point…
Superfluid helium is an intimate mixture of a viscous normal fluid, with continuous vorticity, and an inviscid superfluid, where vorticity is constrained to thin, stable topological defects. One mechanism to generate turbulence in this…
The influence of different types of disorder (both uncorrelated and correlated) on the superfluid properties of a weakly interacting or dilute Bose gas, as well as on the corresponding quantities for flux line liquids in high-temperature…
The paper deals with the study of superfluidity by a Ginzburg-Landau model that investigates the material by a second order phase transition, in which any particle has simultaneouly a normal and superfluid motion. This pattern is able to…
In this paper, we study small perturbations of a class of non-convex integrable Hamiltonians with two degrees of freedom, and we prove a result of diffusion for an open and dense set of perturbations, with an optimal time of diffusion which…
We study the expansion of a rotating, superfluid Fermi gas. The presence and absence of vortices in the rotating gas is used to distinguish superfluid and normal parts of the expanding cloud. We find that the superfluid pairs survive during…
We discuss a simple and experimentally available realization of fracton physics. We note that superfluid vortices form a Hamiltonian system that conserves total dipole moment and trace of the quadrupole moment of vorticity; thereby…
The hydrodynamic description of a superfluid is usually based on a two-fluid picture. In this thesis, basic properties of such a relativistic two-fluid system are derived from the underlying microscopic physics of a complex scalar quantum…
We use a path integral approach to calculate the superfluid density of a Bose lattice gas in the limit where the number of atoms per site is large. Our analytical expressions agree with numerical results on small systems for low…
Thermodynamics of superfluids is revisited, clarifying two points. First, the density and pressure distribution for given equilibrium velocities is obtained, with the finding that counter heat currents give rise to a pressure depression and…
We present a calculation of the low frequency optical conductivity of a superconductor in the presence of quenched inhomogeneity in both the superfluid and normal fluid densities. We find that inhomogeneity in the superfluid density…
Two formulations of superfluidity are reviewed: Landau's phenomenological two-fluid model and a relativistic effective field theory description. We demonstrate how the two-fluid formalism can be recovered from the nonrelativistic limit of…
We investigate theoretically the superfluidity of a one-dimensional boson system whose hopping energy is periodically modulated with a zero time average, which results in the suppression of first-order single-particle hopping processes. The…
We establish kinetic Hamiltonian flows in density space embedded with the $L^2$-Wasserstein metric tensor. We derive the Euler-Lagrange equation in density space, which introduces the associated Hamiltonian flows. We demonstrate that many…
Based on an attractive $U$ Hubbard model on a lattice with up to second neighbor hopping we derive an effective Hamiltonian for phase fluctuations. The superconducting gap is assumed to have s-wave symmetry. The effective Hamiltonian we…
