We study the effects of random bonds on spin chains that have an excitation gap in the absence of randomness. The dimerized spin-1/2 chain is our principal example. Using an asymptotically exact real space decimation renormalization group…
We study a mechanism for superconductivity in quasi-one-dimensional materials with Ising anisotropy. In an isolated chain Ising anisotropy opens a spin gap; if inter-chain coupling is sufficiently weak, single particle hopping is suppressed…
We consider the effect of a random longitudinal field on the Ising model in a transverse magnetic field. For spatial dimension $d > 2$, there is at low strength of randomness and transverse field, a phase with true long range order which is…

We investigate the laws of coarsening of a two-dimensional system of Ising spins evolving under single-spin-flip irreversible dynamics at low temperature from a disordered initial condition. The irreversibility of the dynamics comes from…
We report spin-dependent quantum coherent oscillations (ringing) and beats of the total and spin currents flowing through a quantum dot with Zeeman split levels. The spin dependent transport is calculated via nonequilibrium Green function…
Quantum systems can exhibit a great deal of universality at low temperature due to the structure of ground states and the critical points separating distinct states. On the other hand, quantum time evolution of the same systems involves all…

We study transport of interacting electrons in a low-dimensional disordered system at low temperature $T$. In view of localization by disorder, the conductivity $\sigma(T)$ may only be non-zero due to electron-electron scattering. For weak…
The interplay of non-Fermi liquid and superconductivity born out of strong dynamical interactions is at the heart of the physics of unconventional superconductivity. As a solvable platform of the strongly correlated superconductors, we…
Resonant parametric modulation is a major tool of studying magnetic systems. For a spin-1/2 chain in a strong magnetic field, the resulting excitations can be mapped on fermionic excitations in the Kitaev chain. We show that the response to…
Using numerical renormalization group techniques, we study static and dynamic properties of a family of single-channel Kondo impurity models with axial magnetic anisotropy $DS_z^2$ terms; such models are appropriate to describe magnetic…
The theory for the onset of spin density wave order in a metal in two dimensions flows to strong coupling, with strong interactions not only at the `hot spots', but on the entire Fermi surface. We advocate the computation of DC transport in…
The electrical transport and thermoelectric properties of K_xSr_{1-x}Fe_2As_2 are investigated for 0<x<1. The resistivity rho(T) shows a crossover from Fermi liquid-like temperature dependence at small x to linear rho~T dependence at…
The critical behavior of the random transverse-field Ising model in finite dimensional lattices is governed by infinite disorder fixed points, several properties of which have already been calculated by the use of the strong disorder…
