We show that the correlations of electrons with a fixed energy in metals have very anomalous time and space dependences. Due to soft modes that exist in any Fermi liquid, combined with the incomplete screening of the Coulomb interaction at…
We investigate the spread of correlations carried by an excitation in a 1-dimensional lattice system with high on-site energy disorder and long-range couplings with a power-law dependence on the distance ($\propto r^{-\mu}$). The increase…
The rainbow chain is an inhomogenous exactly solvable local spin model that, in its ground state, displays a half-chain entanglement entropy growing linearly with the system size. Although many exact results about the rainbow chain are…
We reconsider the problem of the spontaneous emission of light by an excited atomic state. We scrutinize the survival probability of this excited state for very short times, in the so-called Zeno regime, for which we show that the dynamics…
A variety of exotic non-fermi liquid (NFL) states have been observed in many condensed matter systems, with different scaling relations between transport coefficients and temperature. The "standard" approach to studying these NFLs is by…
The phenomenon of random intensity patterns, for waves propagating in the presence of disorder, is well known in optics and in mesoscopic physics. We study this phenomenon for cold atomic gases expanding, by a diffusion process, in a weak…
The sequence of ground state energy density at finite size, e_{L}, provides much more information than usually believed. Having at disposal e_{L} for short lattice sizes, we show how to re-construct an approximate quasi-particle dispersion…
We establish a fundamental relationship between the averaged density of states and the extinction mean free path of wave propagating in random media. From the principle of causality and the Kramers-Kronig relations, we show that both…
Prolongating our previous paper on the Einstein relation, we study the motion of a particle diffusing in a random reversible environment when subject to a small external forcing. In order to describe the long time behavior of the particle,…
We discuss the problem of the X-ray absorption in a system of interacting fermions and, in particular, those features in the X-ray spectra that can be used to discriminate between conventional Fermi-liquids and novel "strange metals".…
We calculate the ground state entanglement entropy between two heterogeneous parts of a free fermion chain. The two parts could be XX chains with different parameters or an XX half chain connected with a quantum Ising half chain. It is…
We evaluate the frequencies of scissors modes for density and concentration fluctuations in a vapour of fermionic atoms placed in two hyperfine levels inside a spherical harmonic trap. Both the superfluid and the normal state are…
A quite general finite-size chain of fermions with $N$ internal degrees of freedom (flavors) and $O(N)$ symmetry is considered. In the case of the free boundary condition, we prove that the ground state in the invariant sector having…
The non-equilibrium response of a quantum many-body system defines its fundamental transport properties and how initially localized quantum information spreads. However, for long-range-interacting quantum systems little is known. We address…
We consider the two-body problem in a periodic potential, and study the bound-state dispersion of a spin-$\uparrow$ fermion that is interacting with a spin-$\downarrow$ fermion through a short-range attractive interaction. Based on a…
Pumping a finite energy density into a quantum system typically leads to `melted' states characterized by exponentially-decaying correlations, as is the case for finite-temperature equilibrium situations. An important exception to this rule…
Recently, it was pointed out that quantum orders and the associated projective symmetry groups can produce and protect massless gauge bosons and massless fermions in local bosonic models. In this paper, we demonstrate that a state with such…
We have studied the appearance of chaos in the many-body spectrum of interacting Fermions. The coupling of a single state to the Fermi sea is considered. This state is coupled to a hierarchy of states corresponding to one or several…
We study the time evolution of an initially excited many-body state in a finite system of interacting Fermi-particles in the situation when the interaction gives rise to the ``chaotic'' structure of compound states. This situation is…
Entanglement measures constitute powerful tools in the quantitative description of quantum many-body systems out of equilibrium. We study entanglement in the current-carrying steady state of a paradigmatic one-dimensional model of…
