In this work, we show how states with conserved numbers of dynamical defects (strings, domain walls, etc.) can be understood as possessing generalised global symmetries even when the microscopic origins of these symmetries are unknown.…
The equations of motion for the density modes of a fluid, derived from Newton's equations, are written as a linear generalized Langevin equation. The constraint imposed by the fluctuation-dissipation theorem is used to derive an exact form…
We study small oscillations of highly connected systems, which represent a limit opposite to the more familiar case of disordered crystals. As a concrete example we analyze the vibrational spectra of composite pendula. Remarkably, these…

Hyperuniformity, whereby the static structure factor (or density correlator) obeys $S(q)\sim q^{\varsigma}$ with $\varsigma> 0$, emerges at criticality in systems having multiple absorbing states, such as periodically sheared suspensions.…

Synchronization in one dimension displays generic scale invariance with universal properties previously observed in surface kinetic roughening and the wider context of the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) universality class. This has been…
We consider a population of globally coupled oscillators in which phase shifts in the coupling are random. We show that in the maximally disordered case, where the pairwise shifts are i.i.d. random variables, the dynamics of a large…
We predict the existence of the gapless Carlson-Goldman modes in the color-flavor locked color superconducting phase of dense QCD. These modes resemble Nambu-Goldstone modes of the superconducting phase below the critical temperature where…
