Interactions with electronic excitations can soften and/or broaden phonons. They are greatly amplified at wavevectors Q+- that connect parallel (nested) sheets of the Fermi surface. In such a case, called a Kohn anomaly, the phonon…

Using the Boltzmann equation for electrons in metals, we show that the optical phonons soften and have a dispersion due to screening in agreement with the results reported recently [M. Reizer, Phys. Rev. B {\bf 61}, 40 (2000)]. Additional…

We report an experimental determination of the dispersion of the soft phonon mode along [1,0,0] in uranium as a function of pressure. The energies of these phonons increase rapidly, with conventional behavior found by 20 GPa, as predicted…

Coupled surface plasmons arise in the surfaces of a dielectric layer between two metallic media when a dim wave propagating in the dielectric generates resonant free charge oscillations at the interfaces. Here, we consider surface plasmon…

We use a bosonization approach to show that the momentum distribution $n_{\bf{k}}$ of normal Fermi systems with sufficiently singular interactions is analytic in the vicinity of the non-interacting Fermi surface. These include singular…

The distribution function of electrons and phonons interacting with electrons in semiconductors and semimetals in high electric and quantizing magnetic fields as a result of the solution of the coupled system of equations for the density…

We performed temperature- and doping-dependent high-resolution Raman spectroscopy experiments on YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-\delta}$ to study $B$$_{\rm 1g}$ phonons. The temperature dependence of the real part of the phonon self-energy shows a…

This paper is devoted to the investigation of electron sound -- oscillations of the electron distribution function coupled with elastic deformation and propagating with the Fermi velocity. The amplitude-phase relations characterizing the…

We investigate the effect of electron-phonon interaction on the phononic properties in the one-dimensional half-filled Holstein model of spinless fermions. By means of determinantal Quantum Monte Carlo simulation we show that the behavior…

Ultrafast laser irradiation of solids leads to a thermodynamic nonequilibrium within and between the electron and phonon subsystems of the material. Due to electron-electron and phonon-phonon collisions, both subsystems relax into…

Interacting electrons with a square Fermi surface is investigated from a bosonic point of view taking into account electron scattering between all faces of the square. Fermion operators are classified according to their dimensions and the…

Electron-phonon coupling, i.e., the scattering of lattice vibrations by electrons and vice versa, is ubiquitous in solids and can lead to emergent ground states such as superconductivity and charge-density wave order. Strong coupling of…

Thermodynamic properties of the square-lattice Holstein model of the electron-phonon problem with phonon frequencies small compared to the bare Fermi energy are obtained using Monte Carlo methods, a strong-coupling (bipolaronic) expansion,…

This work explores how phonon perturbations can induce the breaking of electronic degeneracies near the Fermi level and how this response can be interpreted from a chemical perspective through the SSAdNDP method. We apply this approach to a…

We employ inelastic helium atom-surface scattering to measure the low energy phonon dispersion along high-symmetry directions on the surface of the topological insulator Bi$_2$Te$_3$. Results indicate that one particular low-frequency…

We have studied the interplay of a local phonon mode embedded in a metallic host (Holstein impurity model) using Abelian bosonization. The phonon frequency softens, which takes place in two steps: first, their frequency starts softening,…

Exact propagator of density matrix of particle (electron) under influence of thermal vibrations of its medium (phonons) is treated in simplest approximation beyond the Fermi's golden rule. It is shown that uncertainties \,$\sim\h/t$\, in…

We analyze a mean-field model of electrons on a square lattice with two types of interaction: forward scattering favoring a d-wave Pomeranchuk instability and a BCS pairing interaction driving d-wave superconductivity. Tuning the…

The repulsion between free electrons inside a metal makes its optical response spatially dispersive, so that it is not described by Drude's model but by a hydrodynamic model. We give here fully analytic results for a metallic slab in this…

We present an analysis of the vibrational dynamics of metal vicinal surfaces using the embedded atom method to describe the interaction potential and both a real space Green's function method and a slab method to calculate the phonons. We…
