The Schwinger model, one-dimensional quantum electrodynamics, has CP symmetry at $\theta = \pi$ due to the topological nature of the $\theta$ term. At zero temperature, it is known that as increasing the fermion mass, the system undergoes a…

Quantum phase transitions are sudden changes in the ground-state wavefunction of a many-body system that can occur as a control parameter such as a concentration or a field strength is varied. They are driven purely by the competition…
Atomic-like systems in which electronic motion is two dimensional are now realizable as ``quantum dots''. In place of the attraction of a nucleus there is a confining potential, usually assumed to be quadratic. Additionally, a perpendicular…
It is sometimes pointed out as a curiosity that the state space of quantum two-level systems, i.e. the qubit, and actual physical space are both three-dimensional and Euclidean. In this paper, we suggest an information-theoretic analysis of…
The quantum critical point (QCP) in $YbRh_{2}Si_{2}$ is an enigma for the itinerant view of QCP. In an alternative view, this QCP is intimately linked to the selective Mott localization of the heavy $f$ electrons. Following a perusal of…
