Using the exact Bose-Fermi mapping, we study universal properties of ground-state density distributions and finite-temperature quantum critical behavior of one-dimensional hard-core bosons in trapped incommensurate optical lattices. Through…
We review recent progress in the mathematical theory of quantum disordered systems: the Anderson transition (joint work with Domingos Marchetti), the (quantum and classical) Edwards-Anderson (EA) spin glass model and return to equilibrium…
We examine here various aspects of the statics and dynamics of disordered elastic systems such as manifolds and periodic systems. Although these objects look very similar and indeed share some underlying physics, periodic systems constitute…
We investigate the effects of weak to moderate disorder on the T=0 Mott metal-insulator transition in two dimensions. Our model calculations demonstrate that the electronic states close to the Fermi energy become more spatially homogeneous…
In quenched disordered systems, the existence of ordering is generally believed to be only possible in the weak disorder regime (disregarding models of spin-glass type). In particular, sufficiently large random field is expected to prohibit…

Correlated electrons often crystalize to the Mott insulator usually with some magnetic orders, whereas the "quantum spin liquid" has been a long-sought issue. We report numerical evidences that a nonmagnetic insulating (NMI) phase gets…

We investigate the ground-state properties of quantum particles interacting via a long-range repulsive potential ${\cal V}_\sigma(x)\sim 1/|x|^{1+\sigma}$ ($-1<\sigma$) or ${\cal V}_\sigma(x)\sim -|x|^{-1-\sigma}$ ($-2\leq \sigma <-1$) that…
Magnetic impurities embedded in inert solids can exhibit long coherence times and interact with one another via their intrinsic anisotropic dipolar interaction. We argue that, as a consequence of these properties, disordered ensembles of…
We explore the consequences of disorder on phase coherence in the Mott insulator phases in an optical lattice. Few bosons with contact interaction in small optical lattice can feature varieties of insulating phases: weakly interacting Mott…
