In this study, we have performed a detailed investigation of the electronic properties of a core/shell/well/shell multi-layered spherical quantum dot, such as energy eigenvalues, wave functions, electron probability distribution and binding…
Certain wave functions of non-interacting quantum chaotic systems can exhibit "scars" in the fabric of their real-space density profile. Quantum scarred wave functions concentrate in the vicinity of unstable periodic classical trajectories.…
We show that the two-impurity Anderson model exhibits an additional quantum critical point at infinitely many specific distances between both impurities for an inversion symmetric one-dimensional dispersion. Unlike the quantum critical…
We investigate the ground-state energy and spin of disordered quantum dots using spin-density-functional theory. Fluctuations of addition energies (Coulomb-blockade peak spacings) do not scale with average addition energy but remain…
The wavefunction statistics at the Anderson transition in a 2d disordered electron gas with spin-orbit coupling is studied numerically. In addition to highly accurate exponents ($\alpha_0{=}2.172\pm 0.002, \tau_2{=}1.642\pm 0.004$), we…
It is shown that the Hamiltonian for a quantum magnetic impurity on the surface of a topological insulator can be mapped to the conventional pseudo-gap Anderson impurity model, albeit with the combinations of continuum states which…
We study the density of states in disordered s-wave superconductors with a small gap anisotropy. Disorder comes in the form of common nonmagnetic scatterers and pairing-potential impurities, which interact with electrons via an electric…
We consider how the nature of the dynamics affects ground state properties of ballistic quantum dots. We find that ``mesoscopic Stoner fluctuations'', that arise from the residual screened Coulomb interaction, are very sensitive to the…
We study quantum interference of electronic waves that are scattered by multiple non-magnetic impurities in a d_x2-y2-wave superconductor. We show that the number of resonance states in the density-of-states (DOS), as well as their…
Weakly interacting quasiparticles play a central role in the low-energy description of many phases of quantum matter. At higher energies, however, quasiparticles cease to be well-defined in generic many-body systems due to a proliferation…
Application of a perpendicular electric field induces a band gap in bilayer graphene, and it also creates a "Mexican hat" structure in the dispersion relation. This structure has unusual implications for the hydrogen-like bound state of an…
We simulate the nonequilibrium dynamics of two generic many-body quantum impurity models by employing the recently developed iterative influence-functional path integral method [Phys. Rev. B {\bf 82}, 205323 (2010)]. This general approach…
The Kondo effects of an Anderson impurity embedded into a d-wave superconductor is studied. Within the slave-boson mean-field approach, the derived Bogoliubov-de Gennes equations are solved via exact diagonalization. We show that a critical…
Within the recently introduced auxiliary master equation approach it is possible to address steady state properties of strongly correlated impurity models, small molecules or clusters efficiently and with high accuracy. It is particularly…
We have formulated the problem of electron transport through interacting quantum dot system in the framework of self-consistent perturbation theory, and show that the current conservation condition is guaranteed due to the gauge invariant…
In this paper we considered a quantum particle moving through delute Bose-Einstein condensate at zero temperature. In our formulation the impurity particle interacts with the gas of uncoupled Bogoliubov's excitations. We constructed the…
We study the problem of two local potential scatterers in a d-wave superconductor, and show how quasiparticle bound state wave functions interfere. Each single-impurity electron and hole resonance energy is in general split in the presence…
This study discusses the quantum behavior of a particle, which is controlled by fluctuations in the physical space-time (ST) variables, rather than provides a novel interpretation of quantum theory. The fluctuations, i.e., inhomogeneities…
The strong electron correlations caused by Coulomb interaction of impurity electrons are taken into account. The infinite series of diagrams containing irreducible Green's functions are summed. For symmetric Anderson model we establish the…
Localization of wavefunctions is arguably the most familiar effect of disorder in quantum systems. It has been recently argued [[V. Khemani, R. Nandkishore, and S. L. Sondhi, Nature Physics, 11, 560 (2015)] that, contrary to naive…
