In this study, we present theoretical investigations of phase transitions and critical phenomena in materials through the lens of second-order Ginzburg-Landau theory, in conjunction with considerations of symmetry groups and thermal…
Topological or deconfined phases are characterized by emergent, weakly fluctuating, gauge fields. In condensed matter settings they inevitably come coupled to excitations that carry the corresponding gauge charges which invalidate the…
We investigate the dependence of the order parameter profile, local and total susceptibilities on both the temperature and external magnetic field within the mean-filed Ginzburg-Landau Ising type model. We study the case of a film geometry…
We consider a phase-field model where the internal energy depends on the order parameter in a nonlocal way. Therefore, the resulting system consists of the energy balance equation coupled with a nonlinear and nonlocal ODE for the order…
We analyze the universal features of the critical behaviour of frustrated spin systems with noncollinear order. By means of the field theoretical renormalization group approach, we study the 3d model of a frustrated magnet and obtain…
Recent analyses suggest that in TeV scales that will be made accessible at the LHC copious amounts of color scalar parton bound states may be produced. Would this be the case, the scalars would leave long enough to interact and this could…
We study thermodynamics of strongly coupled lattice QCD with two colors of massless staggered fermions as a function of the baryon chemical potential $\mu$ in 3+1 dimensions using a new cluster algorithm. We find evidence that the model…
The concept of universality has shaped our understanding of many-body physics, but is mostly limited to homogenous systems. Here, we present a study of universality on a non-homogeneous graph, the long-range diluted graph (LRDG). Its…
We study the half filled extended Hubbard model on a two-dimensional square lattice using cluster dynamical mean field theory on clusters of size 8-20. We show that the model exhibits metallic, Mott insulating, and charge ordered phases,…
The Kuramoto model, which serves as a paradigm for investigating synchronization phenomenon of oscillatory system, is known to exhibit second-order, i.e., continuous, phase transitions in the macroscopic order parameter. Here, we generalize…
We investigate features of the deconfinement phase transition in an $SU(N_c)$ gauge theory as revealed by fluctuations of the order parameter. The tool of choice is an effective model built from one-loop expressions of the field…
The temperature dependence of the London penetration depth \lambda was measured for an untwined single crystal of YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-\delta} along the three principal crystallographic directions (a, b, and c). Both in-plane components (\lambda_a…
We provide a description of phase transitions at finite temperature in strongly coupled field theories using holography. For this purpose, we introduce a general class of gravity duals to superconducting theories that exhibit various types…
Motivated by the recent surge of transverse-field experiments on quasi-one-dimensional antiferromagnets Sr(Ba)Co$_2$V$_2$O$_8$, we investigate the quantum phase transition in a Heisenberg-Ising chain under a combination of two in-plane…
We investigate the phase diagram and the nature of the phase transitions of three-dimensional lattice gauge-Higgs models obtained by gauging the Z_N subgroup of the global Z_q invariance group of the Z_q clock model (N is a submultiple of…
We perform a thorough scan of the parameter space of a general singlet scalar extension of the Standard Model to identify the regions which can lead to a strong first-order phase transition, as required by the electroweak baryogenesis…
Inspired by the fact that both the dilaton potential encoding the trace anomalies of QCD and the Polyakov loop potential measuring the deconfinement phase transition can be expressed in the logarithmic forms, as well as the fact that the…
We explore universality and phases of matter in hybrid quantum dynamics combining chaotic time evolution and projective measurements. We develop a unitary representation of measurements based on the Stinespring Theorem, which we crucially…
Some time ago, Svetitsky and Yaffe have argued that -- if the deconfinement phase transition of a (d+1)-dimensional Yang-Mills theory with gauge group G is second order -- it should be in the universality class of a d-dimensional spin model…
We study order parameters for the confinement-deconfinement phase transition related to the Polyakov-loop variable. The functional renormalisation group is used to compute these order parameters in a unified, non-perturbative continuum…
