Fermi showed that electrons, as a result of their quantum nature, form a gas of particles where the temperature and density follow the so called Fermi distribution. In a metal, as shown by Landau, that despite their strong Coulomb…
The effects of strong electronic correlations and disorder are crucial for emergent phenomena such as unconventional superconductivity, metal-insulator transitions, and quantum criticality. While both are omnipresent in real materials,…

We show that a strongly correlated Fermi system with the fermion condensate, which exhibits strong deviations from Landau Fermi liquid behavior, is driven into the Landau Fermi liquid by applying a small magnetic field $B$ at temperature…
In an incoherent metal, transport is controlled by the collective diffusion of energy and charge rather than by quasiparticle or momentum relaxation. We explore the possibility of a universal bound $D \gtrsim \hbar v_F^2/(k_B T)$ on the…
Non-local quasiparticles in correlated quantum materials can exhibit the proximity effect. For instance, in metal superconductor hybrid systems, the leaking of cooper pairs to the metallic region induces superconducting correlations in a…
We argue that the success of DFT can be understood in terms of a semiclassical expansion around a very specific limit. This limit was identified long ago by Lieb and Simon for the total electronic energy of a system. This is a universal…
In order to specify a nonequilibrium steady state of a quantum wire (QWR), one must connect reservoirs to it. Since reservoirs should be large 2d or 3d systems, the total system is a large and inhomogeneous 2d or 3d system, in which e-e…
The discovery of a charge density wave (CDW) in the antiferromagnetic kagome metal FeGe has prompted interest in the interplay between kagome physics, CDW, and magnetism. However, a crucial aspect for understanding these emergent…

The Wiedemann-Franz (WF) law, stating that the Lorenz ratio $L = \kappa/(T\sigma)$ between the thermal and electrical conductivities in a metal approaches a universal constant $L_0=\pi^2 k_B^2/ (3 e^2)$ at low temperatures, is often…
The semiclassical description of two-dimensional ($2d$) metals based on the quasiparticle picture suggests that there is a universal threshold of the resistivity: the resistivity of a $2d$ metal is bounded by the so called Mott-Ioffe-Regal…
We consider theoretically spin correlations in an 1D quantum wire with Rashba-Dresselhaus spin-orbit interaction (RDI). The correlations of non-interacting electrons display electron-spin resonance at a frequency proportional to the RDI…
