This paper presents an introduction to phase transitions and critical phenomena on the one hand, and nonequilibrium patterns on the other, using the Ginzburg-Landau theory as a unified language. In the first part, mean-field theory is…

We introduce a model which integrates the complex Ginzburg-Landau (CGL) equation in two dimensions (2D) with the linear-cubic-quintic combination of loss and gain terms, self-defocusing nonlinearity, and a periodic potential. In this…
Nanocavity lasers are commonly characterized by the spontaneous coupling coefficient $\beta$ that represents the fraction of photons emitted into the lasing mode. While $\beta$ is conventionally discussed in semiconductor lasers where the…

The conditions for the appearance of a sharp laser transition are formulated in terms of a scaling limit, involving vanishing cavity loss and light-matter coupling, $\kappa \to 0$, $g \to 0$, such that $g^2/\kappa$ stays finite. It is shown…
A mere correspondence between the electron statistics and the photon one vanishes in the feedback loop (FBL). It means that the direct photodetection, supplying us with the electron statistics, does not provide us with a wished information…
Lasers essentially consist of single-mode optical cavities containing two-level atoms with a supply of energy called the pump and a sink of energy, perhaps an optical detector. The latter converts the light energy into a sequence of…
Galaxy-galaxy lensing (GGL) measures the 2-point cross-correlation between galaxies and mass in the Universe. In this work we seek to generalise this effect by considering the third-order correlations between galaxies and mass:…

We solve the Ginzburg-Landau equation (GLE) for the mesoscopic thin film of the square shape in the magnetic field. In the limit of Ginzburg-Landau parameter $\kappa \to \infty$ we find a series of first and second order phase transitions…
We consider a hypothetical substance, where interaction between (within) structural elements of condensed matter (molecules, nanoparticles, clusters, layers, wires etc.) depends on state of Cooper pairs: an additional work must be made…
We report a microscopic derivation of two-component Ginzburg-Landau (GL) field theory and the conditions of its validity in two-band superconductors. We also investigate the conditions when microscopically derived or phenomenological GL…
A variational model is proposed to describe the magnetic properties of type-II superconductors in the entire field range between $H_{c1}$ and $H_{c2}$ for any values of the Ginzburg-Landau parameter $\kappa>1/\sqrt{2}$. The hexagonal unit…
We develop a general framework for identifying phase reduced equations for finite populations of coupled oscillators that is valid far beyond the weak coupling approximation. This strategy represents a general extension of the theory from…
Despite the enormous technological interest in micro and nanolasers, surprisingly, no class-B quantum density-matrix model is available to date, capable of accurately describing coherence and photon correlations within a unified theory. In…
The $\phi^4$ model has been the "workhorse" of the classical Ginzburg--Landau phenomenological theory of phase transitions and, furthermore, the foundation for a large amount of the now-classical developments in nonlinear science. However,…
The Ginzburg-Landau free energy functional for hard-spheres is constructed using the Fundamental Measure Theory approach to Density Functional Theory as a starting point. The functional is used to study the liquid-fcc solid planer interface…
