We argue that an ionic lattice surrounded by a Fermi liquid changes phase several times under pressure, oscillating between the symmetric phase and a low-symmetry dimerized structure, as a consequence of Friedel oscillations in the pair…

We propose a novel mechanism leading to spatiotemporal oscillations in extended systems that does not rely on local bulk instabilities. Instead, oscillations arise from the interaction of two subsystems of different spatial dimensionality.…

Frequency locking in forced oscillatory systems typically occurs in 'V'-shaped domains in the plane spanned by the forcing frequency and amplitude, the so-called Arnol'd tongues. Here, we show that if the medium is spatially extended and…

Stochastic flexural vibrations of small-scale Bernoulli-Euler beams with external damping are investigated by stress-driven nonlocal mechanics. Damping effects are simulated considering viscous interactions between beam and surrounding…
We investigate a quantum Heisenberg model with both antiferromagnetic and disordered nearest-neighbor couplings. We use an extended dynamical mean-field approach, which reduces the lattice problem to a self-consistent local impurity problem…
The Glauber model on a one-dimensional lattice with boundaries (for the ferromagnetic- and anti-ferromagnetic case) is considered. The large-time behaviour of the one-point function is studied. It is shown that, for any positive…
In pattern-forming systems, localized patterns are readily found when stable patterns exist at the same parameter values as the stable unpatterned state. Oscillons are spatially localized, time-periodic structures, which have been found…
