A previously proposed variational approach for momentum-conserving systems [J. Liu et.al., Phys. Rev. E 91, 042910 (2015)] is extended to systematically investigate general momentum-nonconserving nonlinear lattices. Two intrinsic identities…
We consider a linear system of differential equations describing a joint motion of elastic porous body and fluid occupying porous space. The rigorous justification, under various conditions imposed on physical parameters, is fulfilled for…
We develop the theory for dynamics of the out-of-plane deformations in flexible two-dimensional materials. We focus on study of attenuation of flexural phonons in free-standing crystalline membranes. We demonstrate that the dynamical…
A recently published report has called into question the validity of the equivalence theorem in dynamically broken gauge theories in which the fermions making up the symmetry breaking condensate lie in an anomalous representation of the…
We develop a two-dimensional stochastic dissipative theory for the description of the transport of exciton polaritons accounting for their interaction with the environment of acoustic phonons. Our approach is based on the explicit modeling…
We discuss the physics of sound propagation and charge diffusion in a plasma with non-vanishing charge density. Our analysis culminates the program initiated in arXiv:2108.03244 to construct an open effective field theory of low-lying modes…
The elastic collective modes of a moir\'e superlattice arise not from vibrations of a rigid crystal but from the relative displacement between the constituent layers. Despite their similarity to acoustic phonons, these modes, called…
We consider an electron-phonon system in two and three dimensions on square, hexagonal and cubic lattices. The model is a modification of the standard Holstein model where the optical branch is appropriately curved in order to have a…
We study the phenomenology of a class of models describing modular invariant gaugino condensation in the hidden sector of a low-energy effective theory derived from the heterotic string. Placing simple demands on the resulting observable…
The authors describe how acoustic phonons can directly tunnel through vacuum and, therefore, transmit energy and conduct heat between bodies that are separated by a vacuum gap. This effect is enabled by introducing a coupling mechanism,…
We investigate the interaction of correlated electrons with acoustical phonons using the extended Hubbard-Holstein model in which both, the electron-phonon interaction and the on-site Coulomb repulsion are considered to be strong. The…
We show that the resonant interactions between phonons in one dimension may be treated consistently within Quantum Hydrodynamics by the introduction of phonon dispersion. In this way the physics of a nonlinear Luttinger liquid may be…
Based on our previous work, we propose a homogenized model of acoustic waves propagating through periodically perforated elastic plates with metamaterial properties due to embedded arrays of soft elastic inclusions serving for resonators.…
We present a microscopic picture rationalizing the surprisingly steep decrease of the band gap with temperature in insulators, crystalline or otherwise. The gap narrowing largely results from fluctuations of long-wavelength optical…
We consider a polaron model where molecular \emph{rotations} are important. Here, the usual hopping between neighboring sites is affected directly by the electron-phonon interaction via a {\em twist-dependent} hopping amplitude. This model…
We employ the diagrammatic Monte Carlo method based on lattice path-integral representaion of the particle sector and real-space diagrammatics of the phonon sector to study effects of optical phonon dispersion on Bose-Einstein condensation…
Phonon hydrodynamics is an exotic phonon transport phenomenon that challenges the conventional understanding of diffusive phonon scattering in crystalline solids. It features a peculiar collective motion of phonons with various…
We point out a basic ambiguity in the $p \to 0$ limit of the connected propagator in a spontaneously broken phase. This may represent an indication that the conventional singlet Higgs boson, rather than being a purely massive field, might…
We report the changes in dispersion relations of hypersonic acoustic phonons in free-standing silicon membranes as thin as \sim 8 nm. We observe a reduction of the phase and group velocities of the fundamental flexural mode by more than one…
We investigate the low-energy properties of the Holstein polaron through calculation of the q-dependent phonon spectral function using an improved exact-diagonalization technique, defined over a variational Hilbert space. We perform a…
