This article studies the vortical nature and structure of phase-space holes -- nonlinear B.G.K. trapping modes found in the phase-space collision-free plasmas. A fluid-like outlook of the particles' phase-space is explored, which makes it…
We address the issue of (quantum) black hole formation by particle collision in quantum physics. We start by constructing the horizon wave-function for quantum mechanical states representing two highly boosted non-interacting particles that…
This paper presents a simple Fourier-matching method to rigorously study resonance frequencies of a sound-hard slab with a finite number of arbitrarily shaped cylindrical holes of diameter ${\cal O}(h)$ for $h\ll1$. Outside the holes, a…
We calculate the mean end-to-end distance ($R$) of a self-avoiding polymer encapsulated in an infinitely long cylinder with radius $D$. A self-consistent perturbation theory is used to calculate $R$ as a function of $D$ for impenetrable…
The time evolution of the distribution function for a particle-hole excitation in a Fermi system was calculated using the direct numerical solution of a nonlinear diffusion equation in momentum space. A phenomenological expression for…
We consider a strongly interacting one-dimensional (1D) Bose-Fermi mixture confined in a harmonic trap. It consists of a Tonks-Girardeau (TG) gas (1D Bose gas with repulsive hard-core interactions) and of a non-interacting Fermi gas (1D…
Consider a graph on $n$ uniform random points in the unit square, each pair being connected by an edge with probability $p$ if the inter-point distance is at most $r$. We show that as $n\to\infty$ the probability of full connectivity is…
We showcase the advantages of orbital-free density-potential functional theory (DPFT), a more flexible variant of Hohenberg-Kohn density functional theory. DPFT resolves the usual trouble with the gradient-expanded kinetic energy functional…
The "states-non-conserving" fermion density of states (DOS), deduced from the specific heat of hole-doped cuprates, could arise from a Kondo or heavy fermion-like DOS being suppressed by anti-ferromagnetic spin fluctuations. The large Fermi…
We study a one dimensional gas of $N$ noninteracting diffusing particles in a harmonic trap, whose stiffness switches between two values $\mu_1$ and $\mu_2$ with constant rates $r_1$ and $r_2$ respectively. Despite the absence of direct…
We report on the impact of the extended geometry of a ring-dimple trap on particle loss heating of a degenerate Fermi gas. When the Fermi level is slightly greater than the depth of the dimple and a non-degenerate "halo" is present, the…
We present an {\it ab initio} calculation of small numbers of trapped, strongly interacting fermions using the Green's Function Monte Carlo method (GFMC). The ground state energy, density profile and pairing gap are calculated for particle…
We derive exact physical consequences of particle-hole symmetry of the $\nu=1/2$ state of electrons in a strong magnetic field. We show that if the symmetry is not spontaneously broken, the Hall conductivity and the susceptibility satisfy…
Motivated by recent experiments on rotating Bose-Einstein condensates, we investigate a rotating, polarized Fermi gas trapped in an anharmonic potential. We apply a semiclassical expansion of the density of states in order to determine how…
We consider the system of $N$ one-dimensional free fermions confined by a harmonic well $V(x) = m\omega^2 {x^2}/{2}$ at finite inverse temperature $\beta = 1/T$. The average density of fermions $\rho_N(x,T)$ at position $x$ is derived. For…
We report on an observation of a fractional quantum Hall effect in an ultra-high quality two-dimensional hole gas hosted in a strained Ge quantum well. The Hall resistance reveals precisely quantized plateaus and vanishing longitudinal…

The recently discovered universal thermodynamic behaviour of dilute, strongly interacting Fermi gases also implies a universal structure in the many-body pair-correlation function at short distances, as quantified by the contact ${\cal I}$.…
We consider particle systems (also known as point processes) on the line and in the plane, and are particularly interested in "hole" events, when there are no particles in a large disk (or some other domain). We survey the extensive work on…
We study thermal configurations in the BFSS matrix model produced by numerical simulations. We do this by adding a probe brane to a typical configuration and studying the fermionic degrees of freedom connecting the probe to the…
