A superclimbing dislocation spread over several valleys of Peierls potential in solid Helium-4 represents a non-Luttinger Liquid according to the elementary scaling dimensional analysis because its excitation spectrum is parabolic. Monte…
The unique superflow-through-solid effect observed in solid Helium-4 and attributed to the quasi-one-dimensional superfluidity along the dislocation cores exhibits two extraordinary features: (i) an exponentially strong suppression of the…
As helium-4 is cooled below 2.17 K it undergoes a phase transition to a fundamentally new state of matter known as a superfluid which supports flow without viscosity. This type of dissipationless transport can be observed by forcing helium…
Recent experiments on the flow of helium-4 fluid through nanopores with tunable pore radius provide a platform for studying the quasi-one-dimensional (quasi-1D) superfluid behaviors. In the extreme 1D limit, the helium atoms are localized…
We study the low temperature properties of a helium-4 fluid confined in nanopores, using large-scale Quantum Monte Carlo simulations with realistic He-He and He-pore interactions. In the narrow-pore limit, the system can be described by the…
We investigate the structure and mobility of dislocations in hcp 4He crystals. In addition to fully characterizing the five elastic constants of this system, we obtain direct insight into dislocation core structures on the basal plane,…
The main candidate for the superfluid pathways in solid Helium-4 are dislocations with Burgers vector along the hcp symmetry axis. Here we focus on quantum behavior of a generic edge dislocation which can perform superclimb -- climb…
The stability of the perfect screw dislocation in silicon has been investigated using both classical potentials and first-principles calculations. Although a recent study by Koizumi et al . stated that the stable screw dislocation was…
We have performed quantum Monte Carlo simulations measuring the finite size and temperature superfluid response of helium-4 to the linear and rotational motion of the walls of a nanopore. Within the two-fluid model, the portion of the…
A superfluid having atomic scale superflow of a hexagonal lattice of vortex and antivortex filaments, described by a single macroscopic wave function is presented as a supersolid. As superfluid \he4 is pressurized, at a first order…
There is a deep analogy between the physics of crystalline solids and the behavior of superfluids, dating back to pioneering work of Phillip Anderson, Paul Martin and others. The stiffness to shear deformations in a periodic crystal…
Smectic liquid crystals are charcterized by layers that have a preferred uniform spacing and vanishing curvature in their ground state. Dislocations in the smectics play an important role in phase nucleation, layer reorientation, and…
We present diffusion Monte Carlo (DMC) results on a new metastable, superfluid phase above the crystal ground state in two-dimensional 4He at densities > 0.065 1/A^2. The state is anisotropic with hexatic orbital order. This implies that…
Dislocations are shown to be smooth at zero temperature because of the effective Coulomb-type interaction between kinks. Crossover to finite temperature rougnehing is suggested to be a mechanism responsible for the softening of \he4 shear…
Solid He4 is viewed as a nearly perfect Debye solid. Yet, recent calorimetry indicates that its low-temperature specific heat has both cubic and linear contributions. These features appear in the same temperature range ($T \sim 200$ mK)…
In the experiment on superfluid transport in solid He4 [PRL {\bf 100}, 235301 (2008)], Ray and Hallock observed an {\it anomalously large isochoric compressibility}: the supersolid samples demonstrated a significant and apparently spatially…
The spinless fermion model with hard core repulsive potential extended on a few lattice sites is considered.The Luttinger liquid behaviour is studied for the different values of a hard core radius. A critical exponent of the one particle…
We investigate the constraints on the superfluid fraction of an amorphous solid following from an upper bound derived by Leggett. In order to accomplish this, we use as input density profiles generated for amorphous solids in a variety of…
One-dimensional bosonic systems, such as helium confined to nanopores, exhibit Luttinger liquid behavior characterized by density waves as collective excitations. We investigate the impact of a scattering potential on a low dimensional…
A significant accumulation of matter in solid Helium-4 observed during the superflow events, dubbed as the giant isochoric compressibility (or the syringe effect), is discussed within the model of dislocations with superfluid core. It is…
