We argue that an infinite circumference limit can be obtained in 2-dimensional conformal field theory by adopting $L_0-(L_1+L_{-1})/2$ as a Hamiltonian instead of $L_0$. The theory obtained has a circumference of infinite length and hence…
We study the asymptotic behavior for large N of the disconnection time T_N of simple random walk on a discrete cylinder with base a d-dimensional discrete torus of side-length N. When d is sufficiently large, we are able to substantially…
We study the motion of an ideal incompressible fluid in a perforated domain. The porous medium is composed of inclusions of size $a$ separated by distances $\tilde d$ and the fluid fills the exterior. We analyse the asymptotic behavior of…

Recently, we have suggested Fermi-liquid - non-Fermi-liquid angular crossovers which may exist in quasi-one-dimensional (Q1D)conductors in high tilted magnetic fields [see A.G. Lebed, Phys. Rev. Lett. $\textbf{115}$, 157001 (2015).] All…

Quantum spin liquids may be considered "quantum disordered" ground states of spin systems, in which zero point fluctuations are so strong that they prevent conventional magnetic long range order. More interestingly, quantum spin liquids are…

A quantum spin liquid (QSL) is a novel phase of matter with long-range entanglement where localized spins are highly correlated with the vanishing of magnetic order. Such exotic quantum states provide the opportunities to develop new…
