We revisit how super-Hubble cosmological fluctuations induce, at any time in the cosmic history, a non-vanishing spatial curvature of the local background metric. The random nature of these fluctuations promotes the curvature density…

We construct a supersymmetric SO(10) model with the asymptotic relation tan$\beta \simeq m_t/m_b$ automatically arising from its structure. The model retains the significant Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model predictions for $sin^2…
Statistical analyses of finite sample distributions usually assume that fluctuations are self-averaging, i.e. that they are statistically similar in different regions of the given sample volume. By using the scale-length method, we test…

The superfluid density is a fundamental quantity describing the response to a rotation as well as in two-fluid collisional hydrodynamics. We present extensive calculations of the superfluid density \rho_s in the BCS-BEC crossover regime of…
We propose a novel mechanism of spontaneous supersymmetry breaking which relies upon an ubiquitous feature of Quantum Field Theory, vacuum condensates. Such condensates play a crucial r\^{o}le in many phenomena. Examples include Unruh…
Phase transitions share the universal feature of enhanced fluctuations near the transition point. Here we show that density fluctuations reveal how a Bose-Einstein condensate of dipolar atoms spontaneously breaks its translation symmetry…
We study time reversal symmetry breaking superconductivity with $\Delta_k = \Delta_{x^2-y^2} (k) +e^{i\theta} \Delta_{\alpha}$ ($\alpha = s$ or $d_{xy}$) symmetries. It is shown that the behavior of such superconductors could be {\em…
We compute the second-order density fluctuation in the proper-time hypersurface of non-relativistic matter flows and relate it to the galaxy number density fluctuation in general relativity. At the linear order, it is equivalent to the…
