The interplay of symmetry, topology, and many-body effects in the classification of possible phases of matter poses a formidable challenge that is attracting great attention in condensed-matter physics. Such many-body effects are typically…
We consider the thermodynamic effects of an electrically charged impurity immersed in a two-dimensional two-component plasma, composed by particles with charges $\pm e$, at temperature $T$, at coupling $\Gamma=e^2/(k_B T)=2$, confined in a…
We revisit the low-energy effective $U(1)$ action of topologically twisted $\mathcal N=2$ SYM theory with gauge group of rank one on a generic oriented smooth 4-manifold $X$ with nontrivial fundamental group. After including a specific new…
The quantum anomalous Hall effect has been theoretically predicted and experimentally verified in magnetic topological insulators. In addition, the surface states of these materials exhibit a hedgehog-like "spin" texture in momentum space.…
We study the effective behavior of heterogeneous energies arising in the modeling of material voids in geometrically linear elastic materials. Specifically, we consider functionals featuring bulk terms depending on the symmetrized gradient…
This article is concerned with the energy decay of an infinite memory wave equation with a logarithmic nonlinear term and a frictional damping term. The problem is formulated in a bounded domain in $\mathbb R^d$ ($d\ge3$) with a smooth…
Tangent measure and blow-up methods, are powerful tools for understanding the relationship between the infinitesimal structure of the boundary of a domain and the behavior of its harmonic measure. We introduce a method for studying tangent…
We examine the effect of repulsion on superconductivity in a three-dimensional system with a Bardeen-Pines-like interaction in the low-density limit, where the chemical potential $\mu$ is much smaller than the phonon frequency $\omega_L$.…
We prove a Gamma-convergence result for a family of bending energies defined on smooth surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ equipped with a director field. The energies strongly penalize the deviation of the director from the surface unit normal and…
Numerous dimensionality reduction problems in data analysis involve the recovery of low-dimensional models or the learning of manifolds underlying sets of data. Many manifold learning methods require the estimation of the tangent space of…
For the class of approximate harmonic maps $u\in W^{1,2}(\Sigma,N)$ from a closed Riemmanian surface $(\Sigma,g)$ to a compact Riemannian manifold $(N, h)$, we show that (i) the so-called energy identity holds for weakly convergent…
We recently proposed a class of type IIB vacua that yield, at low energies, four--dimensional Minkowski spaces with broken supersymmetry and a constant string coupling. They are compactifications with an internal five-torus bearing a…
Equilibrium mapping techniques for nonaligning self-propelled particles have made it possible to predict the density profile of an active ideal gas in a wide variety of external potentials, however they fail when the self-propulsion is very…
We discuss a semi-implicit numerical scheme that allows for minimizing the bending energy of curves within certain isotopy classes. To this end we consider a weighted sum of the bending energy and the tangent-point functional. Based on…
Spectral direct numerical simulations of incompressible MHD turbulence at a resolution of up to $1024^3$ collocation points are presented for a statistically isotropic system as well as for a setup with an imposed strong mean magnetic…
One of the defining properties of the conventional three-dimensional ("$\mathbb{Z}_2$-", or "spin-orbit"-) topological insulator is its characteristic magnetoelectric effect, as described by axion electrodynamics. In this paper, we discuss…
We study the low-energy behavior of the vertex function of a single Anderson impurity away from half-filling for finite magnetic fields, using the Ward identities with careful consideration of the anti-symmetry and analytic properties. The…
A general strategy is proposed to explore the low-energy properties of two-dimensional nonlinear $\sigma$ models with $\theta$ terms. We demonstrate its application to nonlinear $\sigma$ models with the target space $\text{SU($N$)}$/H,…
We perform an analysis of the combined effects of geometry and a magnetic field for the case of a charged particle on a helicoid. The effective quantum potentials for a charged spinless particle confined on a helicoid for two simple…
On a lattice, as the momentum space is compact, the kinetic energy is bounded not only from below but also from above. It is shown that this, somehow removes the distinction between repulsive and attractive forces. In particular, it is seen…
