We develop a non-perturbative method to calculate the density of states (DOS) of the fluctuating gap model describing the low-energy physics of electrons on a disordered Peierls chain. For real order parameter field we calculate the DOS at…

The presence of nonmagnetic impurities in a 2D ``bad metal'' depresses the superconducting Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless transition temperature, while leaving the pairing energy scale unchanged. Thus the region of the pseudogap…

In one-dimensional quantum materials, conducting electrons and the underlying lattices can undergo a spontaneous translational symmetry breaking, known as Peierls transition. For nearly a century, the Peierls transition has been understood…

The hot carrier cooling occurs in most photoexcitation-induced phase transitions (PIPTs), but its role has often been neglected in many theoretical simulations as well as in proposed mechanisms. Here, by including the previously ignored hot…

Dynamical phase transitions (DPTs) are signaled by the non-analytical time evolution of the dynamical free energy after quenching some global parameters in quantum systems. The dynamical free energy is calculated from the overlap between…

Peierls gap is analyzed in case of a two-dimensional lattice under the influence of a magnetic field, in a tight-binding approximation. By using a non-analytic class of potentials, such as the Kohmoto potential in the Harper model,…
