Cold-atom experiments based on alkali-like atoms provide us with a tool to experimentally realize Hubbard models with a large number $N$ of components. The value of $N$ can be seen as a new handle to tune the properties of the system,…
We argue that ground states of 1D spin chains can spontaneously break U(1) ``easy-plane'' spin rotation symmetry, via true long-range order of $(S^x, S^y)$, at the phase transition between two quasi-long-range-ordered phases. The critical…

Starting from the previously constructed effective supergravity theory below the scale of U(1) breaking in orbifold compactifications of the weakly coupled heterotic string, we study the effective theory below the scale of supersymmetry…
Holomorphy of the superpotential promotes any continuous symmetry group G to a complexified symmetry group G_C of the superpotential. For U(1) symmetry this means that the superpotential is not only invariant under U(1) phase rotation but…
Metal-insulator transitions and different ground-state phases in quasi-one- dimensional materials, (R_1R_2-DCNQI)_2M (R_1=R_2=CH_3, I and M=Ag, Cu), are studied with a renormalization-group method. We use one-dimensional continuum models…
