Two-dimensional (2D) metals can host gapless plasmonic excitations, which strongly couple to electrons and thus may significantly affect superconductivity in layered materials. To investigate the dynamical interplay of the electron-electron…
Coulomb drag is a process whereby the repulsive interactions between electrons in spatially separated conductors enable a current flowing in one of the conductors to induce a voltage drop in the other. If the second conductor is part of a…

We propose a mechanism and develop a theory for nonreciprocal Coulomb drag resistance. This effect arises in electron double-layer systems in the presence of an in-plane magnetic field in noncentrosymmetric conductors or in bilayers with…
We study the effect of Coulomb drag between two closely positioned graphene monolayers. In the limit of weak electron-electron interaction and small inter-layer spacing ($\mu_{1(2)}, T\ll v/d$) the drag is described by a universal function…
We investigate the effect of Coulomb drag resistance in a bilayer system of strongly correlated electron liquids magnetized by an in-plane field employing the framework of hydrodynamic theory. We identify a mechanism for drag…
A distinctive feature of layered conductors is the presence of low-energy electronic collective modes of the conduction electrons. This affects the dynamic screening properties of the Coulomb interaction in a layered material. We study the…
We calculate the thermal conductivity of electrons produced by electron-electron Coulomb scattering in a strongly degenerate electron gas taking into account the Landau damping of transverse plasmons. The Landau damping strongly reduces…
Tunneling and Coulomb drag are sensitive probes of spontaneous interlayer phase coherence in bilayer two-dimensional electron systems at total Landau level filling factor $\nu_T = 1$. We find that the phase boundary between the interlayer…

The presence of pronounced electronic correlations in one-dimensional systems strongly enhances Coulomb coupling and is expected to result in distinctive features in the Coulomb drag between them that are absent in the drag between…
