We consider the context of molecular motors modelled by a diffusion process driven by the gradient of a weakly periodic potential that depends on an internal degree of freedom. The switch of the internal state, that can freely be…
We study a system of electrons on a one-dimensional lattice, interacting through the long range Coulomb forces, by means of a variational technique which is the strong coupling analog of the Gutzwiller approach. The problem is thus the…

We derive the quantum Boltzmann equation (QBE) of composite fermions at/near the $\nu = 1/2$ state using the non-equilibrium Green's function technique. The lowest order perturbative correction to the self-energy due to the strong gauge…
We consider a planar Coulomb gas in which the external potential is generated by a smeared uniform background of opposite-sign charge on a disc. This model can be seen as a two-dimensional Wigner jellium, not necessarily charge neutral, and…

The crystallization of electrons in quasi low-dimensional solids is studied in a model which retains the full three-dimensional nature of the Coulomb interactions. We show that restricting the electron motion to layers (or chains) gives…

Formation energies of charged point defects in semiconductors are calculated using periodic supercells, which entail a divergence arising from long-range Coulombic interactions. The divergence is typically removed by the so-called jellium…
