The Kondo effect of a single magnetic impurity embedded in the Lieb lattice is studied by the numerical renormalization group. When the band flatness is present in the local density of states, it quenches the participation of all dispersive…
The word Kondo means battle in Swahili. This coincidence is fortuitous because in the Kondo effect, a battle inevitably ensues anytime a magnetic impurity is placed in a non-magnetic metal. Below some energy scale, the Kondo temperature…
The identification of magnetic quantum critical points in heavy fermion metals has provided an ideal setting for experimentally studying quantum criticality. Motivated by these experiments, considerable theoretical efforts have recently…
We consider the Hubbard model with a magnetic Anderson impurity coupled to a lattice site. In the case of infinite dimensions, one-particle correlations of the impurity electron are described by the effective Hamiltonian of the two-impurity…
We demonstrate a tunable Kondo effect realized in small quantum dots. We can switch our dot from a Kondo impurity to a non-Kondo system as the number of electrons on the dot is changed from odd to even. We show that the Kondo temperature…
We propose a new approach to the (ferromagnetic) Kondo-lattice model in the low density region, where the model is thought to give a reasonable frame work for manganites with perovskite structure exhibiting the "colossal magnetoresistance"…
The Kondo effect, a hallmark of many-body physics, emerges from the antiferromagnetic coupling between localized spins and conduction fermions, leading to a correlated many-body singlet state. Here we propose to use the mixed-dimensional…
While standard heavy fermion metals feature a single spin-1/2 local moment per unit cell, more complicated systems with multiple distinct local moments have been synthesized as well, with Ce_3Pd_20(Si,Ge)_6 being one example. Here, we…
A recent experiment has observed the antiferromagnetic interaction between the ground state $^1S_0$ and the metastable state $^3P_0$ of $^{171}$Yb atoms, which are fermionic. This observation combined with the use of state-dependent optical…
The Kondo effect is an ubiquitous phenomenon appearing at low temperature in quantum confined systems coupled to a continuous bath. Efforts in understanding and controlling it have triggered important developments across several disciplines…
We consider a Kondo-like impurity interacting with fermions on a honeycomb lattice at half-filling, as in the case of graphene. We derive from the lattice model an effective one-dimensional continuum theory which has, in general, four…
We present an effective field theory for the Kondo lattice, which can exhibit, in a certain range of parameters, a non Fermi liquid paramagnetic phase at the brink of a zero temperature Anti Ferromagnetic (AF) transition. The model is…
We study the Kondo-Heisenberg model using a fermionic representation for the localized spins. The mean-field phase diagram exhibits a zero temperature quantum critical point separating a spin liquid phase where the f-conduction…
We have synthesized YbPdAs with the hexagonal ZrNiAl-type structure, in which the Yb-atoms form a distorted kagome sublattice in the hexagonal basal plane. Magnetic, transport, and thermodynamic measurements indicate that YbPdAs is a…
We report the influence of external pressure (P= up to 8 GPa) on the temperature dependence of electrical resistivity of a Yb-based Kondo lattice, YbPd2Si2, which does not undergo magnetic ordering under ambient pressure condition. There…
We solve the $S=1/2$ Kondo lattice model within the dynamical mean field theory. Detailed predictions are made for the dependence of the lattice Kondo resonance and the conduction electron spectral density on temperature and band filling…
A theory of Kondo lattices is applied to the crossover between local-moment magnetism and itinerant-electron magnetism in the t-J model on a quasi-two dimensional lattice. The Kondo temperature T_K is defined as a characteristic temperature…

Using recently developed Lanczos technique we study finite-temperature properties of the 2D Kondo lattice model at various fillings of the conduction band. At half filling the quasiparticle gap governs physical properties of the chemical…
