A holographic model of a quantum critical theory at a finite but low temperature, and finite density is studied. The model exhibits non-relativistic z=2 Schr\"odinger symmetry and is realized by the Anti-de-Sitter-Schwarzschild black hole…
Using the Boltzmann transport model, we show that, somewhat unintuitively, ballistic transport of electrons in metals is weaker than diffusive transport. This happens because the femtosecond-scale collision rates of the non-thermal…
We study the chaotic dynamics in a classical many-body system of interacting spins on the kagome lattice. We characterise many-body chaos via the butterfly effect as captured by an appropriate out-of-time-ordered correlator. Due to the…
In the past few years, there has been considerable activity around a set of quantum bounds on transport coefficients (viscosity) and chaos (Lyapunov exponent), relevant at low temperatures. The interest comes from the fact that Black-Hole…
We study the transport properties of a double quantum dot (DQD) molecule at zero and at finite temperature. The properties of the zero temperature conductance depends on whether the level attraction between the symmetric and antisymmetric…
Charged-flat black holes in the R\'enyi extended phase space demonstrate phase structures akin to those of a van der Waals fluid in four-dimensional spacetime and mirror the behaviors of Reissner-Nordstrom-Anti-de-Sitter black holes within…
We theoretically investigate the temperature-dependent static susceptibility and long-range magnetic coupling of three-dimensional (3D) chiral gapless electron-hole systems (semimetals) with arbitrary band dispersion [i.e., $\varepsilon(k)…
In this paper, we study thermodynamics, thermal fluctuations, phase transitions and the charged anti-de Sitter black hole surrounded by perfect fluid dark matter. Large black holes are shown to be stable when subject to thermal…
Following the recent realisation that periodically driven quantum matter can support new types of spatiotemporal order, now known as discrete time crystals (DTCs), we consider the stability of this phenomenon. Motivated by its conceptual…
We point out that even at the absolute zero of temperature environmental decoherence limits the destructive interference between time-reversed paths for an electron in a disordered metal, and thus causes the leading (`weak localization')…
The theoretical study of many-body effects in the context of near-field radiative heat transfer (NFRHT) has already led to the prediction of a plethora of thermal radiation phenomena. Special attention has been paid to nonreciprocal systems…
We compute transport and thermodynamic properties of a two-band spin-fermion model describing itinerant fermions in two dimensions interacting via $Z_2$ antiferromagnetic quantum critical fluctuations by means of a sign-problem-free quantum…
Fermi liquid theory forms the basis for our understanding of the majority of metals, which is manifested in the description of transport properties that the electrical resistivity goes as temperature squared in the limit of zero…
We discuss a new phenomenon of turbulent thermal diffusion associated with turbulent transport of aerosols in the atmosphere and in laboratory experiments. The essence of this phenomenon is the appearance of a nondiffusive mean flux of…
We report a study on the static and dynamic properties of several liquid 5$d$ transition metals at thermodynamic conditions near their respective melting points. This is performed by resorting to ab initio molecular dynamics simulations in…
We present a covariantly stable first-order framework for describing charge and heat transport in isotropic rigid media embedded in curved spacetime. Working in the Lorenz gauge, we show that the associated initial value problem is both…
Point defects play a crucial role in crystalline materials as they do not only impact the thermodynamic properties but are also central to kinetic processes. While they are necessary in thermodynamic equilibrium spontaneous defect formation…
Discrete time crystal (DTC) has recently attracted increasing attention, but most DTC models and their properties are only revealed after disorder average. In this Letter, we propose a simple disorder-free periodically driven model that…
The strongly correlated electron fluids in high temperature cuprate superconductors demonstrate an anomalous linear temperature ($T$) dependent resistivity behavior, which persists to a wide temperature range without exhibiting saturation.…
The dissipative dynamics of strongly interacting systems are often characterised by the timescale set by the inverse temperature $\tau_P\sim\hbar/(k_BT)$. We show that near a class of strongly interacting quantum critical points that arise…
