In two dimensions, a phase-coherent superconducting state is established via a Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) transition, whose critical temperature $T_{\rm BKT}$ is determined by the global superfluid stiffness in uniform…

While the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless transition (BKT) has been under intense scrutiny for decades, unambiguous experimental signatures in magnetic systems remain elusive. Here, we investigate the interplay between electronic and…

We find the first example of a quantum Berenzinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) phase transition in two spatial dimensions via holography. This transition occurs in the D3/D5 system at nonzero density and magnetic field. At any nonzero…

The Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) essential phase transition in the 2d XY model is revisited. Its mechanism is usually described by the (un)binding of vortex--anti-vortex (V--AV) pairs, which does, however, not provide a clear-cut…

We study a four-component polariton system in the optical parametric oscillator regime consisting of exciton/photon and signal/idler modes across the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) transition. We show that all four components share…
