The statistical theory of the dipole flexoelectric (FE) polarization in liquid crystals is used to calculate the temperature dependence of order parameters, the elastic constants and the FE coefficients. Two systems with polar wedge-shaped…
I give a brief overview of a polaron formation in three distinct transition metal oxides: (i) spin polaron when a hole is added to the antiferromagnetic (AF) ordered plane in La$_2$CuO$_4$, (ii) orbital polaron when a hole is added to the…
We consider a binary system of spinning compact objects with internal structure, moving along an exactly circular orbit, and modelled within the multipolar gravitational skeleton formalism, up to quadrupolar order. We prove that the…
This talk reviews some of the hot topics in spin physics and related subjects, including perturbative QCD predictions for polarized parton distributions and their possible behaviours at small x, the Bjorken and singlet sum rules and the…
We present a general unifying theory for spin polarization decay due to the interplay of spin precession and momentum scattering that is applicable to both spin-1/2 electrons and spin-3/2 holes. Our theory allows us to identify and…
This paper reviews recent advances in the study of strongly interacting systems of dipolar molecules. Heteronuclear molecules feature large and tunable electric dipole moments, which give rise to long-range and anisotropic dipole-dipole…
In this paper, we revisit foundations of umbral calculus using a straightforward approach based on an explicit matrix realization of binomial convolution. We construct an umbral duality of Wronskian type for rational curves in echelon form,…
The problem of our understanding of the spin structure of the nucleon has been with us since the publication of the EMC measurements of the polarised structure function of the proton in 1987. In this talk a review of the results presented…
The so-called {\it Modern Theory of Polarization}, which rigorously defines the spontaneous polarization of a period solid and provides a route for its computation in electronic structure codes through the Berry phase, is introduced in a…
The role of dynamical chiral condensate in spin polarization is investigated in a kinetic theory framework. Transport equations for quark matter are derived in the mean-field approximation for the Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model. The dynamical…
A theoretical study of the structure formation observed very recently [Phys. Rev. Lett. 90, 128303 (2003)] in binary colloids is presented. In our model solely the dipole-dipole interaction of the particles is considered,…
Using the Weinberg-Soper formalism we construct the front form $(j,0)\oplus(0,j)$ spinors. Explicit expressions for the generalised Melosh transformations up to spin two are obtained. The formalism, without explicitly invoking any wave…

A brief overview of various problems related to the description of a polarized proton in quark models is presented. Structure functions are discussed both for longitudinal and transverse polarization. A recently introduced quantity,…
The emergent gauge field characteristic of the Coulomb phase of spin ice betrays its existence via pinch points in the spin structure factor ${\cal{S}}$ in reciprocal space which takes the form of a transverse projector ${\cal{P}}$ at low…
Conformal transformations are obtained by demanding that the form of the metric change by a conformal factor. Nevertheless, this transformation of the metric is not taken into account when a variation of the action is performed. The basic…
We discuss the spin structure of the proton in a light-cone treatment of the chiral quark model. Based on the fact that the quark helicity ($\Delta q$) measured in polarized deep inelastic scattering experiments is actually the quark spin…
We reformulate Super Quantum Mechanics in the context of integral forms. This framework allows to interpolate between different actions for the same theory, connected by different choices of Picture Changing Operators (PCO). In this way we…
In optical dipole traps, the excited rotational states of a molecule may experience a very different light shift than the ground state. For particles with two polarizability components (parallel and perpendicular), such as linear $^1\Sigma$…
Monte Carlo simulations are performed to study the in-plane transport of spin-polarized electrons in III-V semiconductor quantum wells. The density matrix description of the spin polarization is incorporated in the simulation algorithm. The…
