We present a study of the electrical and thermal conductivities of the $d$-density wave (DDW) state in an external magnetic field $B$ in the low temperature regime and in the presence of impurities. We show that in the zero temperature…
We investigate Fermi gases at finite temperature for which the in-medium effective mass may not be constant as a function of the density, the temperature, or the chemical potential. We suggest a formalism that separates the terms for which…

Form factor sequences of an integrable QFT can be defined axiomatically as solutions of a system of recursive functional equations, known as ``form factor equations''. We show that their solution can be replaced with the study of the…

Finite-temperature DFT has become of topical interest, partly due to the increasing ability to create novel states of warm-correlated matter (WCM). Subclasses of WCM are Warm-dense matter (WDM), ultra-fast matter (UFM), and high-energy…
