In two-dimensional (2D) systems, the melting from a solid to an isotropic liquid can occur via an intermediate phase that retains orientational order. However, in 2D superconducting vortex lattices, the effect of orientational correlations…
The 2D semimetal consisting of heavy holes and light electrons is studied. The consideration is based on assumption that electrons are quantized by magnetic field while holes remain classical. We assume also that the interaction between…
Strong electron correlations can give rise to extraordinary properties of metals with renormalized quasiparticles which are at the basis of Landau's Fermi liquid theory. Near a quantum critical point, these quasiparticles can be destroyed…
We consider the optical conductivity of a clean two-dimensional metal near a quantum spin-density-wave transition. Critical magnetic fluctuations are known to destroy fermionic coherence at "hot spots" of the Fermi surface but coherent…
The fragile-to-strong glass transition is a fascinating phenomenon that still presents many theoretical and experimental challenges. A major one is how to tune the fragility of a glass-forming liquid. Here, we study a two-dimensional (2D)…
Strange-metal phenomena often develop at the border of antiferromagnetic order in strongly correlated metals. It has been well established that they can originate from the fluctuations anchored by the point of continuous quantum phase…
We develop a theory of a hybrid state, where quasi-particles coexist with strong collective modes, taking as a starting point a model of infinitely many 1D Mott insulators coupled by a weak interchain tunneling. This state exists at an…
In a p-wave Fermi superfluid suffering from the nonmagnetic impurity scatterings, a coefficient of a gradient term becomes divergent upon cooling. Consequences of this divergent rigidity in the stable vortices in the B phase in globally…

We show that a non-Fermi liquid state of interacting electrons in two dimensions is stable in the presence of disorder and is a perfect conductor, provided the interactions are sufficiently strong. Otherwise, the disorder leads to…
Ferroelectric topological objects (e.g. vortices, skyrmions) provide a fertile ground for exploring emerging physical properties that could potentially be utilized in future configurable nanoelectronic devices. Here, we demonstrate…
Bad metals have a large resistivity without being strongly disordered. In many bad metals the Drude peak moves away from zero frequency as the resistivity becomes large at increasing temperatures. We catalogue the position and width of the…
This work explores a simple approximation to describe isolated impurity scattering in a strongly correlated metal. The approximation combines conventional one electron scattering theory and the Dynamic Mean Field Theory to describe strong…
Developing a theoretical framework for conducting electronic fluids qualitatively distinct from those described by Landau's Fermi-liquid theory is of central importance to many outstanding problems in condensed matter physics. One such…

We theoretically study the conductivity of a disordered 2D metal when it is coupled to ferromagnetic magnons with a quadratic spectrum and a gap $\Delta$. In the diffusive limit, a combination of disorder and magnon-mediated electron…
