Deviations from Fermi liquid behavior are well documented in the normal state of the cuprate superconductors, and some of these differences seem to be related to pre-transitional features appearing at temperatures above T$_c$. The…
We show that the chemical potential of a one-dimensional (1D) interacting Bose gas exhibits a non-monotonic temperature dependence which is peculiar of superfluids. The effect is a direct consequence of the phononic nature of the excitation…
We study stochastic thermodynamics of a Brownian particle which is subjected to a temperature gradient and is confined by an external potential. We first formulate an over-damped Ito-Langevin theory in terms of local temperature, friction…
