Heavy fermion compounds represent one of the most strongly correlated forms of electronic matter and give rise to low temperature states that range from small moment ordering to exotic superconductivity, both of which are often in close…
We use Wegner's flow equation method to investigate the infinite-$U$ periodic Anderson model. We show that this method poses a new approach to the description of heavy fermion behaviour. Within this scheme we derive an effective Hamiltonian…

Low lying states of a 2D electron-hole system contain electrons and one or more types of charged excitonic complexes. Binding energies and angular momenta of these excitonic ions, and the pseudopotentials describing their interactions with…
We present a lattice model of fermions with $N$ flavors and random interactions which describes a Planckian metal at low temperatures, $T \rightarrow 0$, in the solvable limit of large $N$. We begin with quasiparticles around a Fermi…
We show that the semi-classical model of conduction breaks down if the mean free path of charge carriers is smaller than a typical extension of their wavefunction. This situation is realized for sufficiently slow charge carriers and leads…

It is supposed that the electron neutrino mass is related to the structures and masses of the $W^\pm$ and $Z^0$ bosons. Using a composite model of fermions (described elsewhere), it is shown that the massless neutrino is not consistent with…
Using density functional theory, we determine parameters of tight-binding Hamiltonians for a variety of Fabre charge transfer salts, focusing in particular on the effects of temperature and pressure. Besides relying on previously published…
