The shear-transformation-zone (STZ) theory has been remarkably successful in accounting for broadly peaked, frequency-dependent, viscoelastic responses of amorphous systems near their glass temperatures $T_g$. This success is based on the…
When a material is subjected to an applied stress, the material will experience recoverable elastic deformation followed by permanent plastic deformation at the point when the applied stress exceeds the yield stress of the material.…

Many seemingly different macroscopic systems (magnets, ferroelectrics, CDW, vortices,..) can be described as generic disordered elastic systems. Understanding their static and dynamics thus poses challenging problems both from the point of…

Equations for dislocation evolution bridge the gap between dislocation properties and continuum descriptions of plastic behavior of crystalline materials. Computer simulations can help us verify these evolution equations and find their…
In low temperature supercooled liquid, below the ideal mode coupling theory transition temperature, hopping and continuous diffusion are seen to coexist. We present a theory which incorporates interaction between the two processes and shows…
We argue that on its face, entanglement theory satisfies laws equivalent to thermodynamics if the theory can be made reversible by adding certain bound entangled states as a free resource during entanglement manipulation. Subject to…
Using quantum gas microscopy we study the late-time effective hydrodynamics of an isolated cold-atom Fermi-Hubbard system subject to an external linear potential (a "tilt"). The tilt is along one of the principal directions of the…
