We study and compare the critical properties of the two-dimensional (2D) XY model in a transverse magnetic field with magnetic filling factors f=1/3 and f=2/5. In addition to the spin waves, the low energy excitations of the system consist…
We show that a system of a domain wall coupled to a scalar field has static negative energy density at certain distances from the domain wall. This system provides a simple, explicit example of violation of the averaged weak energy…
We consider the behaviour of a critical system in the presence of a gradient perturbation of the couplings. In the direction of the gradient an interface region separates the ordered phase from the disordered one. We develop a scaling…
Quantum fluctuations of periodic domain-wall arrays in two-dimensional incommensurate states at zero temperature are investigated using the elastic theory in the vicinity of the commensurate-incommensurate transition point. Both stripe and…
We describe a novel type of magnetic domain wall which, in contrast to Bloch or Neel walls, is non-localized and, in a certain temperature range, non-monotonic. The wall appears as the mean-field solution of the two-dimensional…
We construct a one-dimensional local spin Hamiltonian with an intrinsically non-local, and therefore anomalous, global $\mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry. The model is closely related to the quantum Ising model in a transverse magnetic field, and…

With Monte Carlo methods, we investigate the relaxation dynamics of a domain wall in the two-dimensional random-field Ising model with a driving field. The short-time dynamic behavior at the depinning transition is carefully examined, and…
The nonlinear quantization of the domain wall (relativistic membrane of codimension 1) is considered. The membrane dust equation is considered as an analogue of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation, which allows us to construct its quantum…
If quenched to zero temperature, the one-dimensional Ising spin chain undergoes coarsening, whereby the density of domain walls decays algebraically in time. We show that this coarsening process can be interrupted by exerting a rapidly…

We study the electro-diffusion properties of a domain containing a cusp-shaped structure in three dimensions when one ionic specie is dominant. The mathematical problem consists in solving the steady-state Poisson-Nernst-Planck (PNP)…
