In this work we study a system of interacting fermions on a triangular lattice in the presence of an external magnetic field. We neglect spin and fix a density of one third, with one unit of magnetic flux per particle. The infinite density…
The paper contains an application of the generalized lattice model to multicomponent systems with internal degrees of freedom. The short-range inter-atomic repulsions and smooth long-range parts of the inter-atomic potentials are considered…
We use an extension of fundamental measure theory to lattice hard-core fluids to study the phase diagram of two different systems. First, two-dimensional parallel hard squares with edge-length $\sigma=2$ in a simple square lattice. This…
Systems of fermions described by the three-dimensional (3D) repulsive Hubbard model on a cubic lattice have recently attracted considerable attention due to their possible experimental realization via cold atoms in an optical lattice.…
We study the phase diagrams of a family of 3D "Walker-Wang" type lattice models, which are not topologically ordered but have deconfined anyonic excitations confined to their surfaces. We add a perturbation (analogous to that which drives…
This article contains our comments and views on the status of the current understanding of phase transitions in systems with only hard-core interactions, based on our work in this area. The equation of state for the hard sphere gas in…
Motivated by experiments on sheared suspensions that show a transition between ordered and disordered phases, we here study the long-time behavior of a sheared and overdamped 2-d system of particles interacting by repulsive forces. As a…
The effect of disorder on flux lattices at equilibrium is studied quantitatively in the absence of free dislocations using both the Gaussian variational method and the renormalization group. Our results for the mean square relative…

I study a dimer model on the square lattice with nearest-neighbor exclusion as the only interaction. Detailed simulations using tomographic entropic sampling show that as the chemical potential is varied, there is a strongly discontinuous…
We investigate pattern formation in a driven mixture of two repulsive particles by introducing a Field-based Lattice Model (FLM), a hybrid model that combines aspects of the driven Widom-Rowlison lattice gas (DWRLG) and its statistical…
We analyse equilibrium phases in a multi-type lattice Widom-Rowlinson model with (i) four particle types, (ii) varying exclusion diameters between different particle types and (iii) large values of fugacity. Contrary to an expectation, it…
We study the equilibrium phase diagram of a generalized ABC model on an interval of the one-dimensional lattice: each site $i=1,...,N$ is occupied by a particle of type $\a=A,B,C,$ with the average density of each particle species…
We consider diffusion of particles on a lattice in the so-called dynamical mean-field regime (memory effects are neglected). Interactions are local, that is, only among particles at the same lattice site. It is shown that a statistical…
We examined the characteristics of a metal-insulator transition on a two-dimensional non-bipartite lattice when both disorders and electron interactions are present. Using a real-space renormalization group method and finite-size scaling…
The global phase behavior of the lattice restricted primitive model with nearest neighbor exclusion has been studied by grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations. The phase diagram is dominated by a fluid (or charge-disordered solid) to…
The equilibrium and non--equilibrium disorder induced phase transitions are compared in the random-field Ising model (RFIM). We identify in the demagnetized state (DS) the correct non-equilibrium hysteretic counterpart of the T=0 ground…
We consider a two dimensional model of non-interacting chains of spinless fermions weakly coupled via a small inter-chain hopping and a repulsive inter-chain interaction. The phase diagram of this model has a surprising feature: an abrupt…
The simultaneous effect of both disorder and crystal-lattice pinning on the equilibrium behavior of oriented elastic objects is studied using scaling arguments and a functional renormalization group technique. Our analysis applies to…
We consider an off-lattice liquid crystal pair potential in strictly two dimensions. The potential is purely repulsive and short-ranged. Nevertheless, by means of a single parameter in the potential, the system is shown to undergo a…
