This paper is based on the invited talks delivered by the author at GR 19: the 19th International Conference on General Relativity and Gravitation, Ciudad de M\'exico, M\'exico, July 2010. In Part 1, we briefly review some of the main…
Gauge theory and thermalization are both foundations of physics and nowadays are both topics of essential importance for modern quantum science and technology. Simulating lattice gauge theories (LGTs) realized recently with ultracold atoms…
Quantum gravity corrections to accretion onto a Schwarzschild black hole are considered in the context of asymptotically safe scenario. The possible positions of the critical points are discussed and the general conditions for critical…
At a critical ``chiral'' coupling, topologically massive gravity with a negative cosmological constant exhibits several unusual features, including the emergence of a new logarithmic branch of solutions and a linearization instability for…
Spontaneous collapse models, which are phenomenological mechanisms introduced and designed to account for dynamical wavepacket reduction, are attracting a growing interest from the community interested in the characterisation of the…
We show that the recent renormalization-group analysis of Lifshitz critical behavior presented by Leite [Phys. Rev. B {\bf 67}, 104415 (2003)] suffers from a number of severe deficiencies. In particular, we show that his approach does not…
The leading quantum correction to Einstein-Hilbert Hamiltonian coming from large volume vacuum isotropic loop quantum cosmology, is independent of quantization ambiguity parameters. It is shown here that this correction can be viewed as…
Quantum treatment of physical reference frame leads to the Ricci flow of quantum spacetime, which is a quite rigid framework to quantum and renormalization effect of gravity. The theory has a low characteristic energy scale described by a…
We investigate the effects of higher order curvature corrections to Einstein's Gravity on the critical phenomenon near the black hole threshold, namely the Choptuik phenomenon. We simulate numerically a five dimensional spherically…
The Ziff-Gulari-Barshad (ZGB) model, a simplified description of the oxidation of carbon monoxide (CO) on a catalyst surface, is widely used to study properties of nonequilibrium phase transitions. In particular, it exhibits a…
In the asymptotic-safety scenario for gravity, nonzero interactions are present in the ultraviolet. This property should also percolate into the matter sector. Symmetry- based arguments suggest that nonminimal derivative interactions of…
We investigate the phase transition in a three-dimensional classical Heisenberg magnet with planar defects, i.e., disorder perfectly correlated in two dimensions. By applying a strong-disorder renormalization group, we show that the…
We analyze and overview several different unconventional quantum criticalities. One origin of the unconventionality is the proximity to first-order transitions. The border between the first-order and continuous transitions is described by a…
In this work we investigate the critical behavior of physical systems with competing interactions that present points Lifshitz m-axial. For this study we used the techniques of Quantum Field Theory with Massive Scalar interactions of type…
We investigate the critical behavior of a spin chain coupled to bosonic baths characterized by a spectral density proportional to $\omega^s$, with $s>1$. Varying $s$ changes the effective dimension $d_\text{eff} = d + z$ of the system,…
The effective action for quantum gravity coupled to matter contains corrections arising from the functional measure. We analyse the effect of such corrections for anisotropic self-gravitating compact objects described by means of the…
We present a reformulation of the canonical quantization of gravity, as referred to the minisuperspace; the new approach is based on fixing a Gaussian (or synchronous) reference frame and then quantizing the system via the reconstruction of…
We study temporal behavior of a quantum system under a slow external perturbation, which drives the system across a second order quantum phase transition. It is shown that despite the conventional adiabaticity conditions are always violated…
This paper investigates a weakly coupled system of semilinear Euler-Poisson-Darboux-Tricomi equations (EPDTS) with power-type nonlinear terms. More precisely, in the case where the damping terms dominate over the mass terms, the critical…
Based on large-scale quantum Monte Carlo simulations, we examine the correlations along the edges of two-dimensional semi-infinite quantum critical Heisenberg spin-$1/2$ systems. In particular, we consider coupled quantum spin-dimer systems…
