Intriguing phases may emerge when two-dimensional systems are coupled in a bilayer configuration. In particular, a Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) paired superfluid phase was predicted and claimed to be numerically observed in a…
Motivated by a puzzle in the study of two dimensional lattice Quantum Electrodynamics with staggered fermions, we construct a two dimensional fermionic model with a global U(1) symmetry. Our model can be mapped into a model of closed packed…
Turbulent vortex structures emerging in bacterial active fluids can be organized into regular vortex lattices by weak geometrical constraints such as obstacles. Here we show, using a continuum-theoretical approach, that the formation and…
We investigate the thermalization of a two-component scalar field across a second-order phase transition under extremely fast quenches. We find that vortices start developing at the final temperature of the quench, i.e., below the critical…
A paradigmatic example of a phase transition taking place in the absence of symmetry-breaking is provided by the Berezinkii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) transition in the two-dimensional XY model. In the framework of canonical ensemble, this…
The problem of the Kosterlitz-Thouless (KT) transition in the highly frustrated XY Kagom\'{e} antiferromagnet is solved. The problem is mapped onto that of the KT transition in the XY ferromagnet on the hexagonal lattice. The transition…
We present a combined experimental and theoretical investigation of the formation and decay kinetics of vortices in two dimensional, compressible quantum turbulence. We follow the temporal evolution of a quantum fluid of exciton polaritons,…
We investigate the interaction of magnetic vortices and skyrmions with a spin-polarized current. In a square lattice, fixed classical spins and quantum itinerant electrons, evolve according to the coupled Landau-Lifshitz and Schr\"odinger…
We study the emergence of Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) phases in (PbTiO$_3$)$_3$/(SrTiO$_3$)$_3$ superlattices by means of second-principles simulations. Beyond a threshold tensile epitaxial strain of $\epsilon = 0.25 \%$ the local…
Phase diagrams and electronic transport properties of the helical states in purely two-dimensional (2D) Rashba superconductors coupled with in-plane Zeeman fields are studied. The continuum XY action is derived microscopically by…
We investigate the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) transition in a semiconductor-superconductor two-dimensional Josephson junction array. Tuned by an electrostatic top gate, the system exhibits separate superconducting (S), anomalous…
We numerically study the coarsening of topological defects in 2D polar active matter and make several interesting observations and predictions. (i) The long time state is characterized by nonzero density of defects, in stark contrast to…
We study the evolution of 3d weakly interacting bosons at finite chemical potential with the stochastic Gross-Pitaevskii equation. We fully characterise the vortex network in an out of equilibrium. At high temperature the filament…
Our previous molecular dynamic simulation studies of simple two-dimensional (2D) systems \cite{matt_big} suggested that both geometrical defects (localized, large-amplitude deviations from hexagonal ordering) and topological defects…
Lattice defects such as stacking faults may obscure electronic topological features of real materials. In fact, defects are a source of disorder that can enhance the density of states and conductivity of the bulk of the system and they…
We study the superfluid weight $D^s$ and Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) transition temperatures $T_{BKT}$ in case of exotic Fulde-Ferrell (FF) superfluid states in lattice systems. We consider spin-imbalanced systems with and without…
Embedded defects proposed long ago (Z-vortices and Nambu monopoles) have been successfully searched for in 3D equilibrium lattice studies within the standard model near the electroweak phase transition and the crossover (which follows it…
We perform a detailed finite-size scaling analysis of the sheet resistance in Bi-films and the LaAlO$_{3}$/SrTiO$_{3}$ interface in the presence and absence of a magnetic field applied perpendicular to the system. Our main aim is to explore…
In this paper we study the existence of vortex-type solutions for a system of self-dual equations deduced from the mass-deformed Aharony--Bergman--Jafferis--Maldacena (ABJM) model. The governing equations, derived by Mohammed, Murugan, and…
We calculate the energetic structure of defect cores and propose controlled methods to imprint a nontrivially entangled vortex pair that undergoes non-Abelian vortex reconnection in a biaxial nematic spin-2 condensate. For a singular…
