We study the rheology of dense granular flows for frictionless spherocylinders by means of 3D numerical simulations. As in the case of spherical particles, the effective friction $\mu$ is an increasing function of the inertial number $I$,…

The effective mass at the Fermi level is measured in the strongly interacting two-dimensional (2D) electron system in ultra-clean SiGe/Si/SiGe quantum wells in the low-temperature limit in tilted magnetic fields. At low electron densities,…

It has been conjectured that quantum gravity effects may cause the black-to-white hole transition due to quantum tunneling. The transition amplitude of this process is explored within the framework of the spin foam model on a 2-complex…

Two recent publications report different boundaries for the dimerized phase of the bilinear-biquadratic spin-1 Heisenberg model with quadratic Zeeman effect. We address these discrepancies for the biquadratic model with quadratic Zeeman…

We construct integrals of motion (IM) for the sine-Gordon model with boundary at the free Fermion point which correctly determine the boundary S matrix. The algebra of these IM (``boundary quantum group'' at q=1) is a one-parameter family…

The goal of this work is two-fold. In the first part of this paper we regard classical Plebanski's action as a BF action supplemented by constraints. We introduce a spin foam model for Riemannian general relativity by systematically…

Certain recent semi-classical theories of spin-half quantum plasmas are examined with regard to their internal consistency, physical applicability and relevance to fusion, astrophysical and condensed matter plasmas. It is shown that the…

We use a semiclassical large-$S$ expansion to study a plateau at $1/3$ saturation in the magnetization curve of a frustrated ferrimagnet on a spatially anisotropic kagom\'{e} lattice. The spins have both ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic…

We prove a two-term asymptotic expansion of eigenvalue sums of the Laplacian on a bounded domain with Neumann, or more generally, Robin boundary conditions. We formulate and prove the asymptotics in terms of semi-classical analysis. In this…

We study the spin thermopower in the two-channel spin-1/2 Kondo model which exhibits the phenomenon of impurity spin overscreening and non-Fermi-liquid properties. While magnetic field lower than the Kondo temperature does not strongly…

In quantum gravity the unitary evolution does not follow from the Wheeler-DeWitt dynamics equation as it follows from the Schr\"odinger equation in non-relativistic quantum mechanics. Therefore we can define a spin-foam model based on…

Spin Foam Models (SFMs) are covariant formulations of Loop Quantum Gravity (LQG) in 4 dimensions. This work studies the perturbations of SFMs on a flat background. It demonstrates for the first time that smooth curved spacetime geometries…

We study the semiclassical expansion of the effective action for a Regge state-sum model and its dependence on the choice of the path-integral measure and the spectrum of the edge lengths. If the positivity of the edge lengths is imposed in…

We analyze algebraic structure of a relativistic semi-classical Wigner function of particles with spin 1/2 and show that it consistently includes information about the spin density matrix both in two-dimensional spin and four-dimensional…

A kinetic theory for spin plasmas is put forward, generalizing those of previous authors. In the model, the ordinary phase space is extended to include the spin degrees of freedom. Together with Maxwell's equations, the system is shown to…

We study the time dependent Schr\"odinger equation for large spinless fermions with the semiclassical scale $\hbar = N^{-1/3}$ in three dimensions. By using the Husimi measure defined by coherent states, we rewrite the Schr\"odinger…

Using Monte Carlo and spin-dynamics methods, we have investigated the dynamic behavior of the classical, antiferromagnetic XY model on a triangular lattice with linear sizes $L \leq 300$. The temporal evolutions of spin configurations were…

On the unit tangent bundle of a compact Riemannian surface, we consider a natural sub-Riemannian Laplacian associated with the canonical contact structure. In the large eigenvalue limit, we study the escape of mass at infinity in the…

In ordered quantum magnets where interactions between elementary excitations dominate over their kinetic energy, perturbative approaches often fail, making non-perturbative methods essential to capture spectral features such as bound states…

Fuzzy sphere models conjecturally realize 3d CFTs in small systems of spinful fermions, but why they work so well is still not fully understood. Their Hamiltonians are built from electron density operators projected to the lowest Landau…
