A study is made of properties of the Z(3) interface which forms between the different ordered phases of pure SU(3) gauge theory above a critical temperature. The theory is simulated on a (2+1)-D lattice at various temperatures above this…
We establish the relation of the second virial coefficient of certain $(\tilde{\mu},q)$-deformed Bose gas model, recently proposed by the authors in [Ukr. J. Phys., 2013], to the interaction and compositeness parameters when either of these…
The 2+1 dimensional pure SU(N) gauge theories with N <= 4 are candidates for applying the powerful tools of scaling and universality to their deconfinement transitions at finite temperature. The corresponding 2 dimensional q-state Potts…
Coupled XY model systems consisting of three-dimensional (3D) systems with disordered interlayer physics are of significant theoretical interest. We realize a set of coupled quasi-2D layers of $^{87}$Rb in the presence of disordered…
We investigate whether there could exist topological invariants of gapped 2D materials related to dissipationless thermoelectric transport at low temperatures. We give both macroscopic and microscopic arguments showing that thermoelectric…
We consider gradient models on the lattice $Z^d$. These models serve as effective models for interfaces and are also known as continuous Ising models. The height of the interface is modelled by a random field with an energy which is a…
We study nonequilibrium steady states of a one-dimensional stochastic model, originally introduced as an approximation of the Discrete Nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation. This model is characterized by two conserved quantities, namely mass…
A convenient way to study phase transitions of finite spins systems of linear size $L$ is to fix boundary conditions that impose the presence of a system-size interface. In this paper, we study the statistical properties of such an…
We study bosonic Quantum Field Theory on the double covering $\widetilde{dS}_{2}$ of the 2-dimensional de Sitter universe, identified to a coset space of the group $SL(2,{\Bbb R})$. The latter acts effectively on $\widetilde{dS}_{2}$ and…
We investigate the finite-state $p$-solid-on-solid model, for $p=\infty$, on Cayley trees of order $k\geq 2$ and establish a system of functional equations where each solution corresponds to a (splitting) Gibbs measure of the model. Our…
We study the "Higgs" amplitude mode in the relativistic quantum O($N$) model in two space dimensions. Using the nonperturbative renormalization group we compute the O($N$)-invariant scalar susceptibility in the vicinity of the…
We study phase transitions in a two dimensional weakly interacting Bose gas in a random potential at finite temperatures. We identify superfluid, normal fluid, and insulator phases and construct the phase diagram. At T=0 one has a…
We consider the equilibrium statistical properties of interfaces submitted to competing interactions; a long-range repulsive Coulomb interaction inherent to the charged interface and a short-range, anisotropic, attractive one due to either…
It is shown that perturbation theory in $2D$ nonlinear $\sigma$-models as well gauge theories in dimension $D\geq 2$ produces answers that depend on boundary conditions even after the infinite volume limit has been taken. This unphysical…
We consider the low temperature expansion for the Ising model on $\Z^d$, $d \ge 2$, with ferromagnetic nearest neighbor interactions in terms of Peierls contours. We prove that the expansion converges for all temperatures smaller than $C d…
The thermodynamics of the O(N) linear and nonlinear sigma models in 3+1 dimensions is studied. We calculate the pressure to next-to-leading order in the 1/N expansion and show that at this order, temperature-independent renormalization is…
We construct a finite-range potential on a bidimensional full shift on a finite alphabet that exhibits a zero-temperature chaotic behavior as introduced by van Enter and Ruszel. This is the phenomenon where there exists a sequence of…

We derive exact renormalization-group equations for the $n$-point vertices ($n=0,1,2,\cdots$) of interacting single-component Bose-Einstein condensates based on the vertex expansion of the effective action. They have a notable feature of…
We study the phase diagram of two-dimensional, interacting bosons in the presence of a correlated disorder in continuous space, using large-scale finite temperature quantum Monte Carlo simulations. We show that the superfluid transition is…
