We address the global magnetic phase diagram of Kondo lattice systems. Through the distinct Fermi surface properties of the various phases at zero temperature, we argue that the phase diagram supports two classes of quantum critical point.…
We show that anisotropic quantum corrections can dynamically give rise to curved momentum-spacetimes for quasiparticles in metals. In the (2+1)-dimensional antiferromagnetic quantum critical metal, a curved momentum-spacetime arises as the…
The quantum critical point (QCP) in $YbRh_{2}Si_{2}$ is an enigma for the itinerant view of QCP. In an alternative view, this QCP is intimately linked to the selective Mott localization of the heavy $f$ electrons. Following a perusal of…
The physical properties of the very heavy fermion YbCu$_4$Ni were characterized through structural, magnetic, thermal and transport studies along nearly four decades of temperature ranging between 50 milikelvin and 300 K. At high…
Motivated by recent experimental realizations of polar metals with broken inversion symmetry, we explore the emergence of strong correlations driven by criticality when the polar transition temperature is tuned to zero. Overcoming…
In multi-band systems, electrons from different orbitals coexist at the Fermi surface. An attractive interaction among these quasi-particles gives rise to inter-band or hybrid pairs which eventually condense in a superconducting state.…
Results of combined thermal and electrical transport measurements through the magnetic field-induced quantum critical point in the heavy-fermion compound YbRh2Si2 are revisited to explore the relationship between the strange-metal behavior,…
We clarify that metamagnetic transitions in three dimensions show unusual properties as quantum phase transitions if they are accompanied by changes in Fermi-surface topology. An unconventional universality deeply affected by the…
The low-temperature thermal expansion of CeCoIn5 single crystals measured parallel and perpendicular to magnetic fields B oriented along the c axis yields the volume thermal-expansion coefficient $\beta$. Considerable deviations of…
The thermoelectric coefficients have been measured on the Yb-based heavy fermion compounds beta-YbAlB4 and YbRh2Si2 down to a very low temperature. We observe a striking difference in the behavior of the Seebeck coefficient, S in the…
Fermions in the Fermi gas obey the Pauli exclusion principle restricting any two fermions from filling the same quantum state. Strong interaction between fermions can completely change the properties of the Fermi gas. In our theoretical…
NbTe2 crystal is quasi-2D layered semimetal with charge density wave ground state showing a distorted-1T structure at room temperature. Here we report the anisotropic magneto-transport properties of NbTe2. An anomalous linear…
We present a model which can explain semiquantitatively a number of the unusual properties of \mbox{Yb$_4$As$_3$}. The structural phase transition at $T_{\text{c}}\simeq300\,\mbox{K}$ is described by a band Jahn-Teller effect of correlated…
The behaviour of matter near zero temperature continuous phase transitions, or 'quantum critical points' (QCPs) is a central topic of study in condensed matter physics. In fermionic systems, fundamental questions remain unanswered: the…
Dirac semi-metal with magnetic atoms as constituents delivers an interesting platform to investigate the interplay of Fermi surface (FS) topology, electron correlation, and magnetism. One such family of semi-metal is YbMn$Pn_2$ ($Pn$ = Sb,…
Weyl semimetal is a topologically non-trivial phase of matter with pairs of Weyl nodes in the k-space, which act as monopole and anti-monopole pairs of Berry curvature. Two hallmarks of the Weyl metallic state are the topological surface…
Magnetic frustration has been recognized as pivotal to investigating new phases of matter in correlation-driven Kondo breakdown quantum phase transitions that are not clearly associated with broken symmetry. The nature of these new phases,…
We theoretically study the two-dimensional metal that is coupled to critical magnons and features van Hove singularities on the Fermi surface. When there is only translationally invariant SYK-liked Yukawa interaction, van Hove points…
We study signatures of magnetic quantum oscillations in three-dimensional nodal line semimetals at zero temperature. The extended nature of the degenerate bands can result in a Fermi surface geometry with topological genus one, as well as a…
The antiferromagnetic (AFM) semimetal YbMnSb$_2$ has recently been identified as a candidate topological material, driven by time-reversal symmetry breaking. Depending on the ordered arrangement of Mn spins below the N\'{e}el temperature,…
