We consider a spin chain given by the XXZ model with a weak next to nearest neighbor perturbation which breaks its exact integrability. We prove that such system has an ideal metallic behavior (infinite conductivity), by rigorously…
We illustrate how finite-temperature charge and thermal Drude weights of one-dimensional systems can be obtained from the relaxation of initial states featuring global (left-right) gradients in the chemical potential or temperature. The…
We present a complete derivation of the granular analogue to Drude conductivity using diagrammatic methods. The convergence issues arising when changing the order of momentum and frequency summation are more severe than in the homogeneous…
Scattering theory is a standard tool for the description of transport phenomena in mesoscopic systems. Here, we provide a detailed derivation of this method for nano-scale conductors that are driven by oscillating electric or magnetic…
An effective mass based model accounting for the conduction band quantization in a high aspect ratio semiconductor nanotip is developed to describe injected electron transport and subsequent electron emission from the nanotip. A transfer…
We present a one-equation subgrid scale model that evolves the turbulence energy corresponding to unresolved velocity fluctuations in large eddy simulations. The model is derived in the context of the Germano consistent decomposition of the…
Because diffusion models have shown impressive performances in a number of tasks, such as image synthesis, there is a trend in recent works to prove (with certain assumptions) that these models have strong approximation capabilities. In…
We carried out room-temperature far-infrared (40--650~cm$^{-1}$) transmission measurements on undoped and bromine-doped powder samples of carbon nanofibers in stacked-cup cone geometry. The transmission spectra of both doped and undoped…
A microscopic theory of the electrical conductivity $\sigma(\omega)$ within the t-J model is developed. An exact representation for $\sigma(\omega)$ is obtained using the memory-function technique for the relaxation function in terms of the…
Most of the investigations to date on tight-binding, quantum percolation models focused on the quantum percolation threshold, i.e., the analogue to the Anderson transition. It appears to occur if roughly 30% of the hopping terms are…
The impact of boundary scattering on non-diffusive thermal relaxation of a transient grating in thin membranes is rigorously analyzed using the multidimensional phonon Boltzmann equation. The gray Boltzmann simulation results indicate that…
It is a commonly accepted creed that in typical situations the rate of entropy production is non-negative. We show that this assertion is not entirely correct if a time-dependent, external perturbation is not compensated by a rapid enough…
Molecular dynamics simulations are used to simulate the thermal properties of a model fluid containing nanoparticles (nanofluid). By modelling transient absorption experiments, we show that they provide a reliable determination of…
Strain engineering offers unique control to manipulate the electronic band structure of two-dimensional materials (2DMs) resulting in an effective and continuous tuning of the physical properties. Ad-hoc straining 2D materials has…
The Dicke model is derived in the contraction limit of a pseudo-deformation of the quasispin algebra in the su(2)-based Richardson-Gaudin models. Likewise, the integrability of the Dicke model is established by constructing the full set of…
This paper establishes a far-reaching connection between the Finite-Difference Time-Domain method (FDTD) and the theory of dissipative systems. The FDTD equations for a rectangular region are written as a dynamical system having the…
We study macroscopic electrical or thermal conductivity of a composite made of straight or coiled nanowires suspended in poorly conducting medium. We assume that volume fraction of the wires is so large that spaces occupied by them overlap,…
The optical conductivity and Drude weight of a Spin-Fermion model for cuprates are studied as a function of electronic density and temperature. This model develops stripes and robust D-wave pairing correlation upon hole doping, and it has…
In this expository article, we present a systematic formal derivation of the Kubo formula for the linear-response current due to a time-harmonic electric field applied to non-interacting, spinless charged particles in a finite volume in the…
As a result of suppressed phonon conduction, large improvements of the thermoelectric figure of merit, ZT, have been recently reported for nanostructures compared to the raw materials' ZT values. It has also been suggested that low…
