We study the nonequilibrium steady states in totally asymmetric exclusion processes (TASEP) with open boundary conditions having spatially inhomogeneous hopping rates. Considering smoothly varying hopping rates, we show that the steady…
We show that, independently of the boundary conditions, the two phases of the 4-dimensional compact U(1) lattice gauge theory can be characterized by the presence or absence of an ``infinite'' current network, with an appropriate definition…
We review the topological gauge theory of Josephson junction arrays and thin film superconductors, stressing the role of the usually forgotten quantum phase slips, and we derive their quantum phase structure. A quantum phase transition from…
We address how the interplay between the finite availability and carrying capacity of particles at different parts of a spatially extended system can control the steady state currents and density profiles in the one-dimensional…
We present a theoretical analysis of the equilibrium Josephson current-phase relation in hybrid devices made of conventional s-wave spin-singlet superconductors (S) and topological superconductor (TS) wires featuring Majorana end states.…
We extend one dimensional asymmetric simple exclusion process (ASEP) to a surface and show that the effect of transverse diffusion is to induce a continuous phase transition from a constant density phase to a maximal current phase as the…
We construct an algorithm that generates large, band-diagonal transition matrices for a totally asymmetric exclusion process (TASEP) with local hopping rate inhomogeneities. The matrices are diagonalized numerically to find steady-state…
In this study, we examined the supercurrent diode effect (SDE) in mesoscopic superconducting weak links formed by asymmetric Dayem bridges. These planar metallic constrictions, which naturally exhibit Josephsonlike behavior, offer a…
We study the Ginzburg-Landau equations in the presence of large electric currents, that are smaller than the critical current where the normal state losses its stability. For steady-state solutions in the large $\kappa$ limit, we prove that…
Topological Josephson junctions enable nonreciprocal transport involving Majorana fermions (MFs). Here we examine a topological Josephson junction with mixed $s$+$p$-wave pairing, where topological phase transition can be driven by…
Driven diffusive systems constitute paradigmatic models of nonequilibrium physics. Among them, a driven lattice gas known as the asymmetric simple exclusion process (ASEP) is the most prominent example for which many intriguing exact…
We investigate the role of vortices in the decay of persistent current states of annular atomic superfluids by solving numerically the Gross-Pitaevskii equation, and we directly compare our results with experimental data from Ref. [1]. We…
The properties of a macroscopic assembly of weakly-repulsive bosons at zero temperature are well described by Gross-Pitaevskii mean-field theory. According to this formalism the system exhibits a quantum transition from superfluid to…
The small-world transition is a first-order transition at zero density $p$ of shortcuts, whereby the normalized shortest-path distance undergoes a discontinuity in the thermodynamic limit. On finite systems the apparent transition is…
Computer simulations of first-order phase transitions using standard toroidal boundary conditions are generally hampered by exponential slowing down. This is partly due to interface formation, and partly due to shape transitions. The latter…
Recent experiments on planar superconductor-topological insulator-superconductor (S-TI-S) junctions, e.g., in Corbino geometry, have reported low-temperature nonzero Josephson currents in states with integer fluxoid (flux) induced in the…
We study the phase transition in the abelian lattice gauge theory using the Wilson-Polyakov line as the order parameter. The Wilson-Polyakov line remains very small at strong coupling and becomes non-zero at weak coupling, signalling a…
We examine the phase structure of the $CP^3$ model as a function of $\theta$ in the weak coupling regime. It is shown that the model has a first order phase transition at small $\theta$. We pay special attention to the extrapolation of the…
The theory of electron-phonon superconductivity depends on retardation drastically reducing effects of the strong Coulomb repulsion. The standard theory only treats the lowest order diagram, which is an uncontrolled approximation. We study…
Current dissipation in thin superconducting wires is numerically evaluated by using the string method, within the framework of time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau equation with a Langevin noise term. The most probable transition pathway between…
