We study the influence of disorder on the topological transition from a two-dimensional Dirac semi-metal to an insulating state. This transition is described as a continuous merging of two Dirac points leading to a semi-Dirac spectrum at…
We consider a general class of type-II superconductors which are described by N complex order parameters (OP), with an overall U(N) symmetry for the energy functional. In the lowest energy state, each OP adopts its own particular lattice…

The low-energy limits of models with disorder are frequently described by sigma models. In two dimensions, most sigma models admit either a Wess-Zumino-Witten or a theta term. When such a term is present the model can have a stable critical…

We study the interplay of superfluidity and glassy ordering of hard core bosons with random, frustrating interactions. This is motivated by bosonic systems such as amorphous supersolid, disordered superconductors with preformed pairs, and…
Phase transitions in spin glass type systems and, more recently, in related computational problems have gained broad interest in disparate arenas. In the current work, we focus on the "community detection" problem when cast in terms of a…
Superconducting quantum phase transitions tuned by disorder (d), paramagnetic impurity (MI) and perpendicular magnetic field (B) have been studied in homogeneously disordered ultrathin a-Pb films. The MI-tuned transition is characterized by…
A viewpoint article on the very interesting work of Biroli, Chamon, and Zamponi on superglasses. I further suggest how additional new superglass and "spin-superglass" phases of matter (the latter phases contain quenched disorder) and…
In this article we study superconductor-insulator transitions within the general framework of an attractive Hubbard model. This is a well-defined model of s-wave superconductivity which permits different tuning parameters (disorder and…
