The relation between bulk topological invariants and experimentally observable physical quantities is a fundamental property of topological insulators and superconductors. In the case of chiral symmetric systems in odd spatial dimensions…

A zigzag edge of a graphene nanoribbon supports localized zero modes, ignoring interactions. Based mainly on mean field arguments and numerical approaches, it has been suggested that interactions can produce a large magnetic moment on the…

A paradigm for isothermal, mechanical rectification of stochastic fluctuations is introduced in this paper. The central idea is to transform energy injected by random perturbations into rigid-body rotational kinetic energy. The prototype…

Using the near-detailed-balance distribution function obtained in our recent work, we present a set of covariant gravito-thermal transport equations for neutral relativistic gases in a generic stationary spacetime. All relevant tensorial…

Magnetization is thermodynamically defined as the derivative of the grand potential with respect to a uniform magnetic field. However, a uniform magnetic field makes the kinetic momentum operators noncommuting and Landau-quantizes the…

Bulk-edge correspondence, with quantized bulk topology leading to protected edge states, is a hallmark of topological states of matter and has been experimentally observed in electronic, atomic, photonic, and many other systems. While…

Spin-Orbitronics leverages the spin and orbital degrees of freedom in solids for information processing. The orbital Edelstein effect and orbital Hall effect, where the charge current induces a nonequilibrium orbital angular momentum, offer…

We investigate numerically the magnetisation dynamics of an array of nano-disks interacting through the magneto-dipolar coupling. In the presence of a temperature gradient, the chain reaches a non-equilibrium steady state where energy and…

In order to analyse classical electromagnetism in a medium at finite temperature we introduce `an optical density operator', and reformulate Maxwell's equations with the operator, starting from the Dirac-equation-like formulation of…

The purpose of this paper is to rigorously investigate the orbital magnetism of core electrons in 3-dimensional crystalline ordered solids and in the zero-temperature regime. To achieve that, we consider a non-interacting Fermi gas…

We report on the transition from magnetic edge to electric edge transport in a split magnetic gate device which applies a notch magnetic field to a two-dimensional electron gas. The gate bias allows tuning the overlap of magnetic and…

According to the bulk-edge correspondence principle, the physics of the gapless edge in the quantum Hall effect determines topological order in the gapped bulk. As the bulk is less accessible, the last two decades saw the emergence of…

Bulk-boundary correspondence is a fundamental principle in topological physics. In recent years, there have been considerable efforts in extending the idea of geometry and topology to classical stochastic systems far from equilibrium.…

An unusual increase of the conductance with temperature is observed in clean quantum point contacts for conductances larger than 2e^2/h. At the same time a positive magnetoresistance arises at high temperatures. A model accounting for…

We present results of GGA+U calculations for the "d^0 magnet" RbO_2, where magnetic properties are due to partially filled oxygen p orbitals. We show that on-site interactions on the oxygen sites lead to a strong tendency towards the…

Non-resonant ferromagnetic x-ray diffraction has been used to separate the spin and orbital contribution to the magnetization density of the proposed zero-moment ferromagnet $Sm_{0.982}Gd_{0.018} Al_{2}$. The alignment of the spin and…

We reveal the unexpected role of the material inhomogeneity in unifying the formulation of intrinsic thermal and thermoelectric transport as well as magnetization currents. The smooth inhomogeneity leads to the position dependent local band…

A relativistic gas in a Schwarzschild metric is studied within the framework of a relativistic Boltzmann equation in the presence of gravitational fields, where Marle's model for the collision operator of the Boltzmann equation is employed.…

We experimentally investigate spin-polarized electron transport between two ferromagnetic contacts, placed at the edge of a two-dimensional electron system with band inversion. The system is realized in a narrow (8~nm) HgTe quantum well,…

The critical behavior associated with a transverse magnetic field applied at the edge of a semi-infinite xxz S=1/2 chain is calculated using field theory techniques. Contrary to a recent claim, we find that the long-time behavior is given…
