We present a numerical study of 2D random-bond Potts ferromagnets. The model is studied both below and above the critical value $Q_c=4$ which discriminates between second and first-order transitions in the pure system. Two geometries are…
We show that there exists a universal mechanism of long-range soliton attraction in three-dimensional solids and, therefore, of discontinuity of any commensurate-incommensurate (C-IC) phase transition. This mechanism is due to the strain…
Ground state and finite temperature properties of a system of coupled frustrated and/or dimerized spin-1/2 chains modeling e.g. the CuGeO$_3$ compound are reviewed. Special emphasis is put on the investigation of the role of impurity…
Real critical systems, such as uniaxial ferromagnets in the 3d Ising universality class, are constrained by boundaries and subject to random couplings. We consider the Wilson-Fisher fixed point in $4-\epsilon$ dimensions subject to a random…
Dense quark matter is expected to behave as a type-II superconductor at strong coupling. It was previously shown that if the strange quark mass $m_s$ is neglected, magnetic domain walls in the so-called 2SC phase are the energetically…
We discuss the dynamics of finite systems within molecular dynamics models. Signatures of a critical behavior are analyzed and compared to experimental data both in nucleus-nucleus and metallic cluster collisions. We suggest the possibility…

Quantum phase transitions induced by an external magnetic field in the Haldane-gapped spin-1 chains are studied in a fermionic field-theoretic description of the model. In the case with broken axial symmetry, two transitions occurs…
We investigate the zero-temperature quantum phase transitions of the disordered three-color quantum Ashkin-Teller spin chain by means of large-scale Monte Carlo simulations. We find that the first-order phase transitions of the clean system…
Using extensive Monte Carlo simulations we study the phase diagram of a symmetric binary (AB) polymer blend confined into a thin film as a function of the film thickness D. The monomer-wall interactions are short ranged and antisymmetric,…
We here show that the family of continuous-time linear systems (of prescribed dimensions) can be characterized through the structure of maximal, matrix-convex, cones, closed under inversion. Moreover, this observation unifies three setups:…
Domain walls are topological defects that may have formed in the early Universe through the spontaneous breakdown of discrete symmetries, and can be a strong source of gravitational waves (GWs). We perform 3D lattice field theory…
We are concerned with unbounded sets of $\mathbb{R}^N$ whose boundary has constant nonlocal (or fractional) mean curvature, which we call CNMC sets. This is the equation associated to critical points of the fractional perimeter functional…
We discuss thick domain walls interpolating between spaces with naked singularities and give arguments based on the $AdS$/CFT correspondence why such singularities may be physically meaningful. Our examples include thick domain walls with…
It has been proposed that the superconductivity of Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ is characterized by pairing that is unconventional and, furthermore, spontaneously breaks time-reversal symmetry. However, one of the key expected consequences, viz., that the…
