The first order chiral phase transition for quark matter with flavor imbalance is studied using the Linear sigma model with quarks, also known as Quark-meson model. Special attention is paid to the role of the scalar isovector meson. The…
We study the effect of phonons on a proposed scheme for the direct measurement of two-electron spin states in a double quantum dot by monitoring the the noise of the current flowing through a quantum point contact coupled to one of the…
We investigate the superfluid-insulator quantum phase transition of one-dimensional bosons with off-diagonal disorder by means of large-scale Monte-Carlo simulations. For weak disorder, we find the transition to be in the same universality…
This paper investigates the effects of noise on the diagnostics of quantum chaos, focusing on three primary tools: the spectral form factor (SFF), Krylov complexity, and out-of-time correlators (OTOCs). Utilizing a closed quantum system…
We summarize our recent results on the phase diagram of QCD with N_f=2+1 quark flavors, as a function of temperature T and quark chemical potential \mu. Using staggered fermions, lattices with temporal extent N_t=4, and the exact RHMC…
In this work, we discuss both relativistic and perturbative QCD corrections to the transition form-factor ${\cal F}_{\eta_Q}{(t_1,t_2)}$ for the process $\gamma^*(q_1) \gamma^*(q_2) \leftrightarrow \eta_Q(P)$ with dependencies on the…
We have studied the antiferromagnetic order -- disorder transition occurring at $T=0$ in a 2-layer quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnet as the inter-plane coupling is increased. Quantum Monte Carlo results for the staggered structure factor…
To understand ultrasonic cavitation, it is imperative to analyze the effects of the gas-liquid phase transitions on soundwave propagation. Since current methods based on fluid dynamics offer limited information, it is imperative to carry…
We review the use of an exact renormalization group equation in quantum field theory and statistical physics. It describes the dependence of the free energy on an infrared cutoff for the quantum or thermal fluctuations. Non-perturbative…
Phonon densities of states (DOS) of bcc $\alpha$-$^{57}$Fe were measured from room temperature through the 1044K Curie transition and the 1185K fcc $\gamma$-Fe phase transition using nuclear resonant inelastic x-ray scattering. At higher…
We briefly review three ways that environmental noise can slow-down (or speed-up) quantum transitions; (i) Lamb shifts, (ii) over-damping and (iii) orthogonality catastrophe. We compare them with the quantum Zeno effect induced by observing…
Quantum noise in a model of singly resonant frequency doubling including phase mismatch and driving in the harmonic mode is analyzed. The general formulae about the fixed points and their stability as well as the squeezing spectra…
Topological phase transitions occur when the electronic bands change their topological properties, typically featuring the closing of the bandgap. While the influence of topological phase transitions on electronic and optical properties has…
We consider the finite temperature phase diagram of holographic QCD in the Veneziano limit (Nc large, Nf large with xf=Nf/Nc fixed) and calculate one string-loop corrections to the free energy in certain approximations. Such corrections,…
We present a general harmonic theory for the temperature dependence of phonon-renormalized properties of solids. Firstly, we formulate a perturbation theory in phonon-phonon interactions to calculate the phonon renormalization of physical…
The influence of dispersion-less quantum optical phonons on the phase diagram of a quarter-filled Hubbard chain is studied using the Density-matrix renormalization group technique. The ground state phase diagram is obtained for frequencies…
Using high-precision numerical analysis, we show that 3+1 dimensional gauge theories holographically dual to 4+1 dimensional Einstein-Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory undergo a quantum phase transition in the presence of a finite charge density…
We investigate the effect of self-propulsion on a mean-field order-disorder transition. Starting from a $\varphi^4$ scalar field theory subject to an exponentially correlated noise, we exploit the Unified Colored Noise Approximation to map…
We describe an optomechanical system in which the mean phonon number of a single mechanical mode conditionally displaces the amplitude of the optical field. Using homodyne detection of the output field we establish the conditions under…
The QCD phase diagram at finite temperature and density is a topic of considerable interest. Although much progress has been made in recent years, some open questions remain. Even at zero density, the order of the transition for two light…
