We consider a generalized Hubbard model with on-site and nearest-neighbour repulsions U and V respectively, and nearest-neighbour hopping for spin up (down) which depends on the total occupation n_b of spin down (up) electrons on both sites…
We study the single-particle properties of two-dimensional quasicrystals where the underlying geometry of the tight-binding lattice is crystalline but the on-site potential is quasicrystalline. We will focus on the 2D generalised…
Employing the density matrix renormalization group method and strong-coupling perturbation theory, we study the phase diagram of the SU(2)xSU(2) Kondo lattice model in one dimension. We show that, at quarter filling, the system can exist in…
The present paper considers some classical ferromagnetic lattice--gas models, consisting of particles that carry $n$--component spins ($n=2,3$) and associated with a $D$--dimensional lattice ($D=2,3$); each site can host one particle at…

We predict that in a bulk type-1.5 superconductor the competing magnetic responses of the two components of the order parameter can result in a vortex interaction that generates group-stabilized giant vortices and unusual vortex rings in…
We obtain the phase diagrams of field theories of intertwined orders in the presence of periodic driving by an external field which preserves all symmetries. We consider both a conventional Landau theory of competing orders, and a…
The dynamical phase transition of a system with two coexisting competing order parameters is studied using the time-dependent-Ginzburg-Landau framework. The dynamics are induced by parameters capturing the physics of driving the system with…
We introduce a modified version of the disordered Klein-Gordon lattice model, having two parameters for controlling the disorder strength: $D$, which determines the range of the coefficients of the on-site potentials, and $W$, which defines…
The phase diagram of the fully frustrated XY model on a honeycomb lattice is shown to incorporate three different ordered phases. In the most unusual of them, a long-range order is related not to the dominance of a particular periodic…
A single Landau level (LL) dressed with periodic electrostatic potentials can realize a plethora of interacting topological phases where the Hall conductivity generally does not equal to the LL filling factor. Their physics can be captured…
We report on a Monte Carlo study of the lowest-Landau-level limit of the Lawrence-Doniach model for a layered superconductor. We have studied order parameter correlation functions for indications of the broken translational symmetry and the…

Despite fermion doubling, a two-dimensional quasi-relativistic spin-1/2 system can still lead to true fractionalization of electrical charge, when a massive ordered phase supports a "half-vortex". Such topological defect is possible when…
We discuss scalar conformal field theories (CFTs) that can be realized in structural phase transitions. The Landau condition and Lifshitz condition are reviewed, which are necessary conditions for a structural phase transition to be second…
