Incommensurate structures arise from stacking single layers of low-dimensional materials on top of one another with misalignment such as an in-plane twist in orientation. While these structures are of significant physical interest, they…
While quasi-two-dimensional (layered) materials can be highly anisotropic, their asymptotic long-distance behavior generally reflects the properties of a fully three dimensional phase of matter. However, certain topologically ordered…

We investigate the extended hard-core Bose-Hubbard model on the triangular lattice as a function of spatial anisotropy with respect to both tunneling and nearest-neighbor interaction strength. At half-filling the system can be tuned from…
We study the effects of quenched disorder on the commensurate-incommensurate transitions in the 1D $\mathbb{Z}_N$ chiral clock model. The interplay of domain walls and rare regions rounds the sharp transitions of the pure model. The density…

We investigate how inhomogeneous quintessence models may have a specific signature even in the linear regime of large scale structure formation. The dynamics of the collapse of a dark matter halo is governed by the value or the dynamical…

We systematically apply density functional theory to determine the kind of inhomogeneities that spontaneously develop in a homogeneous gapless phase of neutral two-flavor superfluid quark matter. We consider inhomogeneities in the quark and…
We have used the Path Integral Monte Carlo method to simulate a monolayer of molecular hydrogen on graphite above 1/3 submonolayer coverage. We find that at low temperature and as the coverage increases the system undergoes a series of…
We consider the magnetic phase diagram of the two-dimensional Hubbard model on a square lattice. We take into account both spiral and collinear incommensurate magnetic states. The possibility of phase separation of spiral magnetic phases is…
General conditions controlling formation of incommensurate phases (IPs) in crystals undergoing reconstructive phase transitions (RPTs) are analyzed in the framework of a model free phenomenological approach. A universal trend to stabilizing…
