Density functional theory in the local or semi-local density approximation is a powerful tool for materials simulation, yet it struggles in many cases to describe collective electronic order that is driven by electronic interactions. In…
The phase-ordering dynamics that result from domain coarsening are considered for itinerant quantum ferromagnets. The fluctuation effects that invalidate the Hertz theory of the quantum phase transition also affect the phase ordering. For a…

The \delta N formalism is extended to include the perturbation of the vector field. The latter is quantized in de Sitter space-time and it is found that in general the particle production process of the vector field is anisotropic. This…
The order-disorder layering transitions, of the Blume-Capel model, are studied using the Monte Carlo (MC) simulations, in the presence of a variable crystal field. For a very low temperature, the results are in good agreement with the…

We develop the statistical mechanics of the Hopfield model in a transverse field to investigate how quantum fluctuations affect the macroscopic behavior of neural networks. When the number of embedded patterns is finite, the Trotter…
We investigate the quantum dynamics of many-body systems subject to local, i.e. restricted to a limited space region, time-dependent perturbations. If the perturbation drives the system across a quantum transition, an off-equilibrium…

Orbitally ordered states exhibit unique features which make them a promising platform for exploring the ultrafast dynamics of long-range order in solids: Their free energy typically has multiple discrete minima, and electric laser fields or…

We present a theory of the magnetotransport in weakly disordered metals close to an antiferromagnetic quantum-critical point. The anisotropic scattering from critical spin fluctuations is strongly influenced by weak but isotropic scattering…
First order quantum phase transitions (1QPTs) are signaled, in the thermodynamic limit, by discontinuous changes in the ground state properties. These discontinuities affect expectation values of observables, including spatial correlations.…
