Experimental results on the metal-insulator transition and related phenomena in strongly interacting two-dimensional electron systems are discussed. Special attention is given to recent results for the strongly enhanced spin susceptibility,…
This article contains a theoretical overview of the physical properties of antiferromagnetic Mott insulators in spatial dimensions greater than one. Many such materials have been experimentally studied in the past decade and a half, and we…
The Mott insulator Ca$_2$RuO$_4$ exhibits a rare insulator-to-metal transition (IMT) induced by DC current. While structural changes associated with this transition have been tracked by neutron diffraction, Raman scattering, and x-ray…
We investigate the time-dependent reformation of the quasiparticle peak in a correlated metal near the Mott transition, after the system is quenched into a hot electron state and equilibrates with an environment which is colder than the…
We investigate a model for a Mott insulator in presence of a time-periodic modulated interaction and a coupling to a thermal reservoir. The combination of drive and dissipation leads to non-equilibrium steady states with a large number of…
We study the effects of electronic correlations on fragile topology using dynamical mean-field theory. Fragile topological insulators (FTIs) offer obstruction to the formation of exponentially localized Wannier functions, but they can be…
Resistance noise spectroscopy is applied to bulk single crystals of the quasi-two-dimensional organic Mott insulator $\kappa$-(BEDT-TTF)$_2$Cu[N(CN)$_2$]Cl both under moderate pressure and at ambient-pressure conditions. When pressurized,…
Electric current has been experimentally demonstrated to be able to drive the insulator-to-metal transition (IMT) in VO$_2$. The main mechanisms involved are believed to be the Joule heating effect and the strong electron-correlation…
Nonlinear phononics holds the promise for controlling properties of quantum materials on the ultrashort timescale. Using nonequilibrium dynamical mean-field theory, we solve a model for the description of organic solids, where correlated…
The strong coupling between electronic transport in a single-level quantum dot and a capacitively coupled nano-mechanical oscillator may lead to a transition towards a mechanically-bistable and blocked-current state. Its observation is at…
Various types of metal-insulator transitions are discussed to find conditions for which an ideal surface of a bulk insulator is metallic. It is argued that for the correlation-driven Mott metal-insulator transition the surface phase diagram…
An intuitive interpretation of the relationship between the dispersion relation of the single-particle excitation in a metal and that of the spin excitation in a Mott insulator is presented, based on the results for the one- and…
Consecutive topological phase transitions (TPTs) between strongly correlated electronic phases that differ simultaneously in symmetry breaking and topological order are of fundamental interest in condensed matter physics, yet are rarely…
The use of intense tailored light fields is the perfect tool to achieve ultrafast control of electronic properties in quantum materials. Among them, Mott insulators are materials in which strong electron-electron interactions drive the…
Reservoir engineering is a powerful approach for using controlled driven-dissipative dynamics to prepare target quantum states and phases. In this work, we study a paradigmatic model that can realize a Mott insulator of photons in its…
Recent studies of electrical transport, both theoretical and experimental, near the bandwidth-tuned Mott metal-insulator transition have uncovered apparent quantum critical scaling of the electrical resistivity at elevated temperatures,…
Resistive switching is the fundamental process that triggers the sudden change of the electrical properties in solid-state devices under the action of intense electric fields. Despite its relevance for information processing, ultrafast…
We employ a field-theoretical approach to analyze the Bose-Hubbard model on a lattice, with a focus on the low-energy properties across the Mott insulator (MI) to superfluid (SF) transition. Prior approaches approximated the partition…
We investigate the quantum mechanical origin of resistive phase transitions in solids driven by a constant electric field in the vicinity of a metal-insulator transition. We perform a nonequilibrium mean-field analysis of a…
We consider the Bose-Hubbard model on a two-leg ladder under an artificial magnetic field, and investigate the superfluid-to-Mott insulator transition in this setting. Recently, this system has been experimentally realized [M.Atala…
