A theoretical description of local absorption is proposed in order to investigate spectral variations on a length scale comparable with the extension of the relevant quantum states. A general formulation is derived within the density-matrix…
A striking consequence of the Hohenberg-Kohn theorem of density functional theory is the existence of a bijection between the local density and the ground-state many-body wave function. Here we study the problem of constructing…

We discuss a novel cold dark matter candidate which is formed from the ordinary quarks during the QCD phase transition when the axion domain wall undergoes an unchecked collapse due to the tension in the wall. If a large number of quarks is…
We develop a stability theory for contractive local IFSs on compact metric spaces. Unlike the classical global setting, local systems may exhibit a richer symbolic and geometric structure, including code spaces that are not of finite type…
We discuss the effects of a quantum critical point located nearby optimum doping and related to local charge segregation (stripe phase). The fluctuations in the critical region produce at the same time a strong pairing mechanism and a…

Despite all the analogies with "usual random" models, tight binding operators for quasicrystals exhibit a feature which clearly distinguishes them from the former: the integrated density of states may be discontinuous. This phenomenon is…
The instanton approach to spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking is reviewed, with emphasis on the connection to chiral random matrix theory. We extend the approach to discuss the finite density, zero-temperature behaviour of quark matter.…
A brief introduction into the properties of dense quark matter is given. Recently proposed gapless color superconducting phases of neutral and beta-equilibrated dense quark matter are discussed. The current status in the field is described,…
The net-baryon production at forward rapidities is investigated considering the Color Glass Condensate formalism. We assume that at large energies the coherence of the projectile quarks is lost and that the leading baryon production…
We study the stabilities of quantum states of macroscopic systems, against noises, against perturbations from environments, and against local measurements. We show that the stabilities are closely related to the cluster property, which…
A group theory justification of one dimensional fractional supersymmetry is proposed using an analogue of a coset space, just like the one introduced in $1D$ supersymmetry. This theory is then gauged to obtain a local fractional…
The existence of a generalized fluctuation-dissipation theorem observed in simulations and experiments performed in various glassy materials is related to the concepts of local equilibration and heterogeneity in space. Assuming the…
The color superconductivity of a dense quark matter is reviewed with emphasis on the long range nature of the pairing force and the multiplicity of the order parameter. The former gives rise to a non BCS behavior of the superconducting…
Bloch-Boltzmann transport theory fails to describe the carrier diffusion in current crystalline organic semiconductors, where the presence of large-amplitude thermal molecular motions causes substantial dynamical disorder. The charge…
The competition between bulk color superconductivity and the localized screening of a heavy quark impurity, analogous to the Kondo effect, leads to a rich spectrum of phenomena in dense quark matter. We investigate this competition at the…
In a recent letter [Europhys. Lett. 95, 13001 (2011)] the question of whether the density of a time-dependent quantum system determines its external potential was reformulated as a fixed point problem. This idea was used to generalize the…
We investigate entropy minimization problems for quantum states subject to convex block-separable constraints. Our principal result is a quantitative stability theorem: under a natural confining (fixed-support) hypothesis, if a state has…
