The behaviour of electrons in solids is remarkably well described by Landau's Fermi-liquid theory, which says that even though electrons in a metal interact they can still be treated as well-defined fermions, called ``quasiparticles''. At…
The ether can "explain" certain questionable "quantum realities" in which single, isolated photons form a diffraction pattern in a two-slit apparatus; and, similarly, single, isolated electrons form a diffraction pattern in the equivalent…
Exotic elementary objects such as "holons" and "spinons", which are widely used in descriptions of correlated electrons in reduced spatial dimensions, were introduced from analysis of the excitation branches of one-dimensional (1D) models.…

The role that quasiparticles play in a strong interaction system with spontaneous symmetry breaking is examined. We find, using a non- perturbative cluster decomposition method, that the quasiparticles do not saturate the physical local…
The unrelated discoveries of quasicrystals and topological insulators have in turn challenged prevailing paradigms in condensed-matter physics. We find a surprising connection between quasicrystals and topological phases of matter: (i)…

Upon increasing the electron density in a quantum wire, the one-dimensional electron system undergoes a transition to a quasi-one-dimensional state. In the absence of interactions between electrons, this corresponds to filling up the second…
