Strong coupling phenomena, such as the like charged macroions attraction, opposite charged macroions repulsion, charge renormalization or charge inversion, are known to be mediated by multivalent counterions. Most theories treat the…
The theory of electron-phonon superconductivity depends on retardation drastically reducing effects of the strong Coulomb repulsion. The standard theory only treats the lowest order diagram, which is an uncontrolled approximation. We study…
We provide a comprehensive theoretical framework to study how crystal dislocations influence the functional properties of materials, based on the idea of quantized dislocation, namely a "dislon". In contrast to previous work on dislons…
The theory of Raman scattering by the electron--phonon coupled system in metals and heavily doped semiconductors is developed taking into account the Coulomb screening and the electron--phonon deformation interaction. The Boltzmann equation…
In this work, we investigate the characteristics of the electric current in the so-called symmetric Anderson impurity model. We study the nonequilibrium model using two complementary approximate methods, the perturbative quantum master…
Recently, Prakash et. al. have discovered bulk superconductivity in single crystals of bismuth, which is a semi metal with extremely low carrier density. At such low density, we argue that conventional electron-phonon coupling is too weak…
In the past five years enormous progress has been made in the ab initio calculations of the optical response of electrons in semiconductors. The calculations include the Coulomb interaction between the excited electron and the hole left…
A numerical renormalization group technique recently developed by one of us is used to analyse the Coulomb pseudopotential (${\mu^*}$) in ${{\rm C}_{60}}$ for a variety of bare potentials. We find a large reduction in ${\mu^*}$ due to…
We consider the spin and pseudospin (charge) response functions of the exactly soluble Anderson atom model. We demonstrate, in particular, that a deviation from the magnetic Curie-law behaviour, appropriate for a free spin one-half,…
Weak localization has a strong influence on both the normal and superconducting properties of metals. In particular, since weak localization leads to the decoupling of electrons and phonons, the temperature dependence of resistance…
The effect of electron-phonon interactions in the conductance through metallic atomic wires is theoretically analyzed. The proposed model allows to consider an atomic size region electrically and mechanically coupled to bulk electrodes. We…
Instability of electron-positron vacuum in strong electric fields is studied. First, falling to the Coulomb center is discussed at $Z>137/2$ for a spinless boson and at $Z>137$ for electron. Then, focus is concentrated on description of…
Evidence for strong electron-phonon coupling in high-Tc cuprates is reviewed, with emphasis on the electron and phonon spectral functions. Effects due to the interplay between the Coulomb and electron-phonon interactions are studied. For…
We investigate the physics of a magnetic impurity with spin 1/2 in a correlated metallic host. Describing the band by a Hubbard Hamiltonian, the problem is analyzed using dynamical mean-field-theory in combination with Wilson's…
We find third-power nonlinear corrections to the Coulomb and other static electric fields, as well as to the electric and magnetic dipole fields, as we work within QED with no background field. The nonlinear response function we base our…
Recently, dynamical mean field theory calculations have shown that kinks emerge in the real part of the self energy of strongly correlated metals close to the Fermi level. This gives rise to a similar behavior in the quasi-particle…
We review several theoretical aspects of the Equivalence Principle (EP). We emphasize the unsatisfactory fact that the EP maintains the absolute character of the coupling constants of physics while General Relativity, and its…
We study tight-binding models of itinerant electrons in two different bands, with effective on-site interactions expressing Coulomb repulsion and Hund's rule. We prove that, for sufficiently large on-site exchange anisotropy, all ground…
We argue that the unscreened Coulomb interaction in graphene provides a positive, universal, and logarithmic correction to scaling of zero-temperature conductivity with frequency. The combined effect of the disorder due to wrinkling of the…
In the context of the massless Nelson model, we prove that two non-relativistic nucleons interacting with a massless meson field do not bind when a sufficiently strong Coulomb repulsion between the nucleons is added to the Hamiltonian. The…
