It is shown that for any irrational rotation number and any admissible gap labelling number the almost Mathieu operator (also known as Harper's operator) has a gap in its spectrum with that labelling number. This answers the strong version…
We investigate the effects of suppression of single-particle dispersion near the Fermi level on the spin gap and the singlet-pairing correlation by using the exact diagonalization method for finite-size systems. We consider strongly…
We theoretically investigate one-dimensional (1D) SU($\kappa$) fermions in the regime of spin-incoherent Luttinger liquid. We specifically focus on the Tonks-Girardeau gas limit where its density is sufficiently low that effective…
Holes in a Mott insulator are represented by spinless fermions in the fermion-boson model introduced by Edwards. Although the physically interesting regime is for low to moderate fermion density the model has interesting properties over the…
The $S=1$ Affleck-Kennedy-Lieb-Tasaki (AKLT) quantum spin chain was the first rigorous example of an isotropic spin system in the Haldane phase. The conjecture that the $S=3/2$ AKLT model on the hexagonal lattice is also in a gapped phase…
We study a wide class of finite-dimensional su(m|n)-supersymmetric models closely related to the representations of the Yangian Y(sl(m|n)) labeled by border strips. We quantitatively analyze the degree of degeneracy of these models arising…
We perform Ramsey spectroscopy on the ground state of ultra-cold 87Rb atoms magnetically trapped on a chip in the Knudsen regime. Field inhomogeneities over the sample should limit the 1/e contrast decay time to about 3 s, while decay times…
We study the relationship between entanglement and spectral gap for local Hamiltonians in one dimension. The area law for a one-dimensional system states that for the ground state, the entanglement of any interval is upper-bounded by a…
The problem of degenerate ground states of open-shell atoms is investigated in spin-restricted and unrestricted density functional theory using the exact exchange energy functional. For the spin-unrestricted case, spurious energy splittings…
We study some general properties of accretion disc variability in the context of stationary random processes. In particular, we are interested in mathematical constraints that can be imposed on the functional form of the Fourier…
We study the properties of the spinor wavefunction in a strongly disordered environment on a two-dimensional lattice. By employing a transfer-matrix calculation we find that there is a transition from delocalized to localized states at a…
We analyze numerically the violation of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem (FDT) in the $\pm J$ Edwards-Anderson (EA) spin glass model. Using single spin probability densities we reveal the presence of strong dynamical heterogeneities,…
We formulate a scaling theory for the long-time diffusive motion in a space occluded by a high density of moving obstacles in dimensions 1, 2 and 3. Our tracers diffuse anomalously over many decades in time, before reaching a diffusive…
We consider systems of weakly interacting fermions on a lattice. The corresponding free fermionic system is assumed to have a ground state separated by a gap from the rest of the spectrum. We prove that, if both the interaction and the free…
We study the ground-state properties of a family of frustrated spin-1/2 Heisenberg models on two- and three-dimensional decorated lattices composed of connected star-shaped units. Each star is built from edge-sharing triangles with an…
Structure and coordinate dependence of the reflected wave, as well as boundary conditions for quasi-particles of graphene and the two dimensional electron gas in sheets with abrupt lattice edges are obtained and analyzed by the Green's…
Using Griffiths and Lieb-Simon type inequalities, it is shown that the two-point function of ferromagnetic spin models with N components in one dimension decays like the interaction provided that N=1,2,3,4 and T > T_c.
An interfacial approximation of the streamer stage in the evolution of sparks and lightning can be written as a Laplacian growth model regularized by a `kinetic undercooling' boundary condition. We study the linear stability of uniformly…
The spectrum of critical exponents of the $N$--vector model in $4-\eps$~dimensions is investigated to the second order in~$\eps$. A generic class of one--loop degeneracies that has been reported in a previous work is lifted in two--loop…
We study the coarsening of two-dimensional oblique stripe patterns by numerically solving potential and nonpotential anisotropic Swift-Hohenberg equations. Close to onset, all models exhibit isotropic coarsening with a single characteristic…
