Two-dimensional (2D) systems play a special role in many-body physics. Because of thermal fluctuations, they cannot undergo a conventional phase transition associated to the breaking of a continuous symmetry. Nevertheless they may exhibit a…

We study numerically the interplay of phase coherence and vortex-glass state in two-dimensional Josephson-junction arrays with average rational values of flux quantum per plaquette $f$ and random dilution of junctions. For $f=1/2$, we find…

By making periodic thru-holes in a suspended film, the phonon system can be modified. Motivated by the BCS theory, the technique -- so-called phonon engineering -- was applied to a metallic niobium sheet. It was found that its electrical…

We report single layer resistivities of 2-dimensional electron and hole gases in an electron-hole bilayer with a 10nm barrier. In a regime where the interlayer interaction is stronger than the intralayer interaction, we find that an…

The equilibrium behavior of a system of elastic layers under tension in the presence of correlated disorder is studied using functional renormalization group techniques. The model exhibits many of the features of the Bose glass phase of…

We study moving periodic structures in presence of correlated disorder using renormalisation group. We find that the effect of disorder persists at all velocities resulting at zero temperature in a Moving Bose Glass phase with transverse…

The mixed phase of layered superconductors with no magnetic screening is studied through a partial duality analysis of the corresponding frustrated XY model in the presence of random columnar pins. A small fraction of pinned vortex lines is…

Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) in cold gases can be turned on and off by an external potential, such as that presented by an optical lattice. We present a model of this phenomenon which we are able to analyze rigorously. The system is a…

We measure the noise correlations of two-dimensional (2D) Bose gases after free expansion, and use them to characterize the in-situ phase coherence across the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) transition. The noise-correlation function…

We revisit the concept of superfluidity in bosonic lattice models in low dimensions. Then, by using numerical and analytical results obtained previously for equivalent spinless fermion models, we show that the gapless phase of 1D…

The glass transition can simply be viewed as the point at which the viscosity of a structurally disordered liquid reaches 10^{13} Poise [1]. This definition is operational but it sidesteps fundamental controversies about the glass: Is the…

The statistical mechanics of thermally excited vortex lines with columnar defects can be mapped onto the physics of interacting quantum particles with quenched random disorder in one less dimension. The destruction of the Bose glass phase…

Quantum simulation of quasicrystals in synthetic bosonic matter now paves the way to the exploration of these intriguing systems in wide parameter ranges. Yet thermal fluctuations in such systems compete with quantum coherence, and…

In disordered spin systems with antiferromagnetic Heisenberg exchange, transitions into and out of a magnetic-field-induced ordered phase pass through a unique regime. Using quantum Monte Carlo simulations to study the zero-temperature…

Electrical resistivity as a function of temperature, pressure, and magnetic field was measured in high and low purity single crystals of BaVS$_3$ close to the critical pressure value $p_{cr}$$\approx$2 GPa, associated with the zero…

Quantized Hall conductance is a generic feature of two dimensional electronic systems with broken time reversal symmetry. In the quantum anomalous Hall state recently discovered in magnetic topological insulators, time reversal symmetry is…

The relationship between glasses and gels has been intensely debated for decades; however, the transition between these two phases remains elusive. To investigate a gel formation process in the zero-temperature limit and its relation to the…

Two dimensional disordered superconductors with broken spin-rotation and time-reversal invariance, e.g. with p_x+ip_y pairing, can exhibit plateaus in the thermal Hall coefficient (the thermal quantum Hall effect). Our numerical simulations…

We study the low-temperature limit of the d-dimensional imperfect Bose gas. Relying on an exact analysis of the microscopic model, we establish the existence of a second-order quantum phase transition to a phase involving the Bose-Einstein…

Thanks to the 9 contacts deposited on the surface of a high quality YBCO twinned single crystal, we investigate both vortex guided motion along twins and the mixed state Hall effect. Firstly, we clearly identify the vortex phase transition…
