This paper considers the distribution of charge over the surface of a conductor, and specifically the old rule-of-thumb that charge accumulates near sharp points and more generally in regions of high curvature. The discussion is almost…
Recent experiments in the underdoped regime of the hole-doped cuprates have found evidence for an incommensurate charge density wave state. We present an analysis of the charge ordering instabilities in a metal with antiferromagnetic…

We introduce the notion of Fermi flow for hypersurfaces in Riemannian manifolds. It turns out that this is a powerful tool to study the geometry of distance surfaces about a given initial hypersurface. Some of the results in this paper are…

We argue that the superconducting state found in high-$T_c$ cuprates is inhomogeneous with a corresponding inhomogeneous superfluid density. We introduce two classes of microscopic models which capture the magnetic and superconducting…
An ant-like observer confined to a two-dimensional surface traversed by stripes would wonder whether this striped landscape could be devised in such a way as to appear to be the same wherever they go. Differently stated, this is the problem…
In this work we investigate the description of superconducting systems with multiple Fermi surfaces. For the case of one Fermi surface we re-obtain the result that the superconductor is more precisely described as a topological state of…
We consider a variational model for a charge density $u\in\{-1,1\}$ on a (hyper)plane, with a short-range attraction coming from the interfacial energy and a long-range repulsion coming from the electrostatic energy. This competition leads…
We investigate the competing Fermi surface instabilities in the Kagome tight-binding model. Specifically, we consider onsite and short-range Hubbard interactions in the vicinity of van Hove filling of the dispersive Kagome bands where the…
The standard treatment of impurities in metals assumes a homogeneous distribution of impurities. In this paper we study distributions that are inhomogeneous. We discuss in detail the "isotropic inhomogeneous scattering model" which takes…
We analyse the coexistence of superfluid and density wave (stripe) order in a quasi-two-dimensional gas of dipolar fermions aligned by an external field. Remarkably, the anisotropic nature of the dipolar interaction allows for such a…
We study the deformation of a Fermi surface (FS) near charge-ordering (CO) transition. By applying a fluctuation-exchange approximation to the two-dimensional extended Hubbard model, we show that the FS is largely modified by strong charge…
