Recent analyses of wetting in the semi-infinite two dimensional Ising model, extended to include both a surface coupling enhancement and a surface field, have shown that the wetting transition may be effectively first-order and that…
We present the master (i.e. unique) behavior of the squared capillary length - so called the Sudgen factor-, as a function of the temperature-like field along the critical isochore, asymptotically close to the gas-liquid critical point of…
The universal behavior of the continuous superconducting (glass) phase transition is studied in a YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-\delta}$ thin film. A new analysis technique for extracting critical exponents is developed, using current-voltage…
Lightning, the most colossal discharge in nature, and flux avalanches in quantum superconductors--phenomena separated by twenty orders of magnitude in scale--display striking fractal similarity. We demonstrate that this is no mere analogy…
The well known scaling laws relating critical exponents in a second order phase transition have been generalized to the case of an arbitrarily higher order phase transition. In a higher order transition, such as one suggested for the…
We study the dynamical melting of "hot" one-dimensional many-body localized systems. As disorder is weakened below a critical value these non-thermal quantum glasses melt via a continuous dynamical phase transition into classical thermal…
The superflow in a superfluid is bounded from above by Landau's critical velocity. Within a microscopic bosonic model, I show that below this critical velocity there is a dynamical instability that manifests itself in an imaginary sound…
Scaling laws illuminate Nature's fundamental biological principles and guide bioinspired materials and structural designs. In simple cases they are based on the fundamental principle that all laws of nature remain unchanged (i.e.,…
We developed a theory showing that under appropriate normalizations and rescalings, temperature response curves show a remarkably regular behavior and follow a general, universal law. The impressive universality of temperature response…
Depending on the Hamiltonian parameters, two-component bosons in an optical lattice can form at least three different superfluid phases in which both components participate in the superflow: a (strongly interacting) mixture of two miscible…
We investigate a lattice model representing a granular gas in a thin channel. We deduce the hydrodynamic description for the model from the microscopic dynamics in the large system limit, including the lowest finite-size corrections. The…
On the phase diagram of a system undergoing a continuous phase transition of the second order, three lines, hyper-surfaces, convergent into the critical point feature prominently: the ordered and disordered phases in the thermodynamic…

Superfluidity is a well-characterized quantum phenomenon which entails frictionless-motion of mesoscopic particles through a superfluid, such as $^4$He or dilute atomic-gases at very low temperatures. As shown by Landau, the incompatibility…
We are concerned with a nonlocal transport 1D-model with supercritical dissipation $\gamma\in(0,1)$ in which the velocity is coupled via the Hilbert transform, namely the so-called CCF model. This model arises as a lower dimensional model…
In multi-band metals quasi-particles arising from different atomic orbitals coexist at a common Fermi surface. Superconductivity in these materials may appear due to interactions within a band (intra-band) or among the distinct metallic…
This article deals with the existence and scaling of an energy cascade in steady granular liquid flows between the scale at which the system is forced and the scale at which it dissipates energy. In particular, we examine the possible…
A microscopic statistical model of a quantum solid is developed, where inside a crystalline lattice there can exist regions of disorder, such as dislocation networks or grain boundaries. The cores of these regions of disorder are allowed…
