$YbInCu_{4}$ and its alloys present discontinuous, first order iso-structural transitions at pressure dependent temperatures $T_V(P)$, where a local moment phase coexist with a renormalized Fermi liquid phase. We show that along the…
Heating enhances thermal fluctuations and typically leads to melting of solids, but in exceptional cases, heating can also cause liquids to solidify. The paradigm of this counterintuitive phenomenon is solidification of liquid $^3$He upon…
The Pomeranchuk effect is a counterintuitive phenomenon where liquid helium-3 (3He) solidifies under specific pressures, not when cooled, but when heated. This behaviour originates from the magnetic entropy of nuclear spins, suggesting a…
Many sought-after exotic states of matter are known to emerge close to quantum phase transitions, such as quantum spin liquids (QSL) and unconventional superconductivity. It is thus desirable to experimentally explore systems that can be…

We show that an adiabatic increase of the supercurrent along a superconductor with lines of nodes of the order parameter on the Fermi surface can result in a cooling effect. The maximum cooling occurs if the supercurrent increases up to its…
We analyze a model of itinerant electrons interacting through a quadrupole density-density repulsion in three dimensions. At the mean field level, the interaction drives a continuous Pomeranchuk instability towards $d$-wave, spin-triplet…
A variety of analytical techniques suggest that quantum fluctuations lead to a fundamental instability of the Fermi liquid that drives ferromagnetic transitions first order at low temperatures. We present both analytical and numerical…
