We study the two-dimensional Wess-Zumino model with extended N=2 supersymmetry on the lattice. The lattice prescription we choose has the merit of preserving {\it exactly} a single supersymmetric invariance at finite lattice spacing $a$.…
We study the random conductance model on the lattice $\Z^d$, i.e. we consider a linear, finite-difference, divergence-form operator with random conductances $a$. We allow the conductances $a$ to be unbounded and degenerate. Assuming the…
We report on measurements of the electrical conductivity in both a 2D triangular lattice of metallic beads and in a chain of beads. The voltage/current characteristics are qualitatively similar in both experiments. At low applied current,…
We present a two-dimensional model of a Fermionic wire which shows a power-law conductance behavior despite the presence of uncorrelated disorder along the direction of the transport. The power-law behavior is attributed to the presence of…
We consider conductivities of two-dimensional lattice electrons in a magnetic field. We focus on systems where the flux per plaquette $\phi$ is irrational (incommensurate flux). To realize the system with the incommensurate flux, we…

Starting from a simple discrete model which exhibits a supersymmetric invariance we construct a local, interacting, two-dimensional Euclidean lattice theory which also admits an exact supersymmetry. This model is shown to correspond to the…
The two-terminal conductance of a random flux model defined on a square lattice is investigated numerically at the band center using a transfer matrix method. Due to the chiral symmetry, there exists a critical point where the ensemble…

We study the low-temperature low-frequency conductivity sigma of an interacting one dimensional electron system in the presence of a periodic potential. The conductivity is strongly influenced by conservation laws, which, we argue, need be…
