Universal conductance fluctuations are usually observed in the form of aperiodic oscillations in the magnetoresistance of thin wires as a function of the magnetic field B. If such oscillations are completely random at scales exceeding…

The observation of $1/B$-periodic behavior in Kondo insulators SmB$_6$ and YbB$_{12}$ challenges the conventional wisdom that quantum oscillations (QO) necessarily arise from Fermi surfaces in metals. We revisit recently proposed theories…
Spontaneous intervalley coherence is suspected in several different graphene multilayer systems, but is difficult to confirm because of a paucity of convenient experimental signatures. Here we suggest that magneto-conductance features…
High-$T_c$ superconductivity is unconventional because the gap is not isotropic as in simple metals but has $d_{x^2-y^2}$ symmetry with lines of nodes. In a fascinating thermal transport experiment on a high-$T_c$ superconductor, Krishana…

We consider transport through a one-dimensional conductor subject to an external periodic potential and connected to non-interacting leads (a "Mott quantum wire"). For the case of a strong periodic potential, the conductance is shown to…
