The influence of dissipation on quantum tunneling in the spin-boson model with a sub-Ohmic bath is studied by a variational calculation. By examining the evolution of solutions of the variational equation with the coupling strength near the…
Spectral problem for a family of periodic Sturm--Liouville problems \[ u''+\lambda^2(a(x)-a)u=0 \] depending on the parameter (a\in\mathbb R) is considered. An interpolation formula describing the behaviour of the branches of the spectrum…
The strange metal behavior, usually characterized by a linear-in-temperature (T) resistivity, is a still unsolved mystery in solid-state physics. Usually it is associated with the proximity to a quantum critical point (a second order…
We investigate the relationship between dynamical instability and thermodynamic phase transitions in four-dimensional Anti--de Sitter black holes in Einstein gravity coupled to a nonlinear power-law electromagnetic field with exponent $p =…
Motivated by the issue of whether it is possible to construct phenomenologically viable models where the electroweak symmetry breaking is triggered by new physics at a scale $\Lambda \gg 4\pi v$, where $v$ is the order parameter of the…
Finding new phase is a fundamental task in physics. Landau's theory explained the deep connection between symmetry breaking and phase transition commonly occurring in magnetic, superconducting and super uid systems. The discovery of the…
Spontaneous symmetry breaking is a well-understood mechanism for generating distinct phases of matter. Recently, the notion of symmetry has been broadened to include operations without inverses, leading to the concept of non-invertible…
Employing large-scale quantum Monte Carlo simulatoins, we study the phase diagram of a quantum spin model which is subject to the recently developed dyonic Lieb-Shultz-Mattis (LSM) theorem. The theorem predicts there are symmetry…
Using large scale quantum Monte Carlo simulations of lattice bosonic models, we precisely investigate the effect of weak Josephson tunneling between 2D superfluid or superconducting layers. In the clean case, the Kosterlitz-Thouless…
We study via RG, numerics, exact bounds and qualitative arguments the equilibrium Gibbs measure of a particle in a $d$-dimensional gaussian random potential with {\it translationally invariant logarithmic} spatial correlations. We show that…
We have conducted a revised analysis of the first-order phase transition that is associated with symmetry breaking in a classically scale-invariant model that has been extended with a new $SU(2)$ gauge group. By incorporating recent…
We measure the maximal Lyapunov exponent $\lambda_L$ of physical states in a SU(2) gauge theory consisting of soft momentum modes both in and out-of-thermal equilibrium conditions using ab-initio lattice techniques. We have implemented…
Determining the phase diagram of interacting quantum many-body systems is an important task for a wide range of problems such as the understanding and design of quantum materials. For classical equilibrium systems, the Lee-Yang formalism…
A transition between energy levels at an avoided crossing is known as a Landau-Zener transition. When a two-level system (TLS) is subject to periodic driving with sufficiently large amplitude, a sequence of transitions occurs. The phase…
We study the phase diagram of the $U(2) \times U(2)$ scalar model in $d=4$ dimensions. We find that the phase transition is of first order in most of the parameter space. The theory can still be relevant to continuum physics (as an…
We use supersymmetric (SUSY) methods to study the delocalization transition at zero energy in a one-dimensional tight-binding model of spinless fermions with particle-hole symmetric disorder. Like the McCoy-Wu random transverse-field Ising…
We make connections between studies in the condensed matter literature on quantum phase transitions in square lattice antiferromagnets, and results in the particle theory literature on abelian supersymmetric gauge theories in 2+1…
We discuss a cosmological phase transition within the Standard Model which incorporates spontaneously broken scale invariance as a low-energy theory. In addition to the Standard Model fields, the minimal model involves a light dilaton,…
Self-buckling is an interesting phenomenon that is easily found around us, either in nature or in objects made by human. Palm fronds which initially directed upward when they were short and turned into bending after appreciably longer is an…
The temperature phase transition in the $N$-component scalar field theory with spontaneous symmetry breaking is investigated using the method combining the second Legendre transform and with the consideration of gap equations in the extrema…
