We consider the fate of the Wigner crystal state in a two dimensional system of massive Dirac electrons as the effective fine structure constant $\alpha$ is increased. In a Dirac system, larger $\alpha$ naively corresponds to stronger…

We show that the coercivity of the modified Ding functional leads to the existence of a certain kind of balanced metrics and their convergence to the K\"ahler-Ricci soliton modulo automorphisms. In our results, we do not assume that the…

Dynamical scalar fields in an effective four-dimensional field theory are naturally expected to couple to the rest of the theory's degrees of freedom, unless some new symmetry is postulated to suppress these couplings. In particular, a…
