We study topological excitations in two-component nematic superconductors, with a particular focus on Cu$_x$Bi$_2$Se$_3$ as a candidate material. We find that the lowest-energy topological excitations are coreless vortices: a bound state of…
Skyrmions represent topologically stable field configurations with particle-like properties. We used neutron scattering to observe the spontaneous formation of a two-dimensional lattice of skyrmion lines, a type of magnetic vortices, in the…
We discuss properties of strongly correlated two-dimensional electron gas in semiconductor layers at low electron concentrations assuming that the electron liquid is close to crystalization. Analogy with the theory of 3He is emphasized.
This work elucidates the novel behavior found in a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) under a tilted magnetic field in which the field's angle becomes the dominant factor in tuning the spin-splitting rather than the strength of the…
Using an ansatz wave function for the ground state of rotating two-dimensional dipolar fermions, which occupy only partially the lowest Landau level, we study the correlation energy and elastic properties of the Wigner crystal of rotating…
Spontaneous magnetization of a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) is discussed. It takes place for sufficiently high electron density (i.e. for a quantum fluid state) with $r_s<10$ which is quite beyond the condition of Wigner…
Double layer two-dimensional electron systems at high perpendicular magnetic field are used to realize magnetic tunnel junctions in which the electrons at the Fermi level in the two layers have either parallel or anti-parallel spin…

What is the fate of the ground state of a two-dimensional electron system (2DES) at very low Landau level filling factors ($\nu$) where interaction reigns supreme? An ordered array of electrons, the so-called Wigner crystal, has long been…
The crystalline structure of nuclear matter is investigated in the standard Skyrme model with massive pions. A semi-analytic method is developed to determine local minima of the static energy functional with respect to variations of both…
We study the entire energy spectrum of an electron droplet in the lowest Landau level. By exact diagonalization calculations, we find highly excited states in the middle of the spectrum that display unexpected density distribution and pair…
Quantum phases of electrons in the filling factor range $2 \leq\nu\leq 3$ are probed by the weak optical emission from the partially populated second Landau level and spin wave measurements. Observations of optical emission include a…
We argue that, due to the specific form of the interaction potential between electronic guiding centers, a bubble crystal (BC) with basis may be energetically more favorable than the usual bubble solid. This new BC has well-defined normal…
The high-density electron gas in a strong magnetic field B and at zero temperature is investigated. The quantum strong-field limit is considered in which only the lowest Landau level is occupied. It is shown that the perturbation series of…
Liquid crystalline phases of matter permeate nature and technology, with examples ranging from cell membranes to liquid-crystal displays. Remarkably, electronic liquid crystal phases can exist in two-dimensional electron systems (2DES) at…
We report the observation of low-lying collective charge and spin excitations in the second Landau level at {\nu} = 2 + 1/3 and also for the very fragile states at {\nu} = 2 + 2/5, 2 + 3/8 in inelastic light scattering experiments. These…
We investigate the ground state of a one-dimensional lattice system that hosts two different kinds of excitations (species) which interact with a power-law potential. Interactions are only present between excitations of the same kind and…
We consider the effect of interactions on electrons confined to two dimensions at Landau level filling $\nu=2$, with the specific aim to determine the range of parameters where the fully polarized state is stable. We calculate the charge…
