The all-to-all momentum coupling of the Hubbard interaction makes interacting lattice models generically unsolvable. In many settings, however, from Peierls instabilities to Moir\'e superlattice physics, the low-energy behavior is dominated…

We review and develop the classical theory of moments of configurations of weighted points with a focus on systems with an identically vanishing first moment. The latter condition produces equations for equilibrium configurations of systems…
Rydberg atoms and beams of ultracold polar molecules have become highly useful experimental tools in recent years. There is therefore a need for accessible calculations of interaction potentials between such particles and nearby surfaces…
We investigate how the combination of nonequilibrium effects and material properties impacts on the Casimir-Polder interaction between an atom and a surface. By addressing systems with temperature inhomogeneities and laser interactions, we…
