We analyze the transition into the most favorable ordered state for a system of 2D fermions with spin and valley degrees of freedom. We show that for a range of rotationally invariant dispersions, the ordering transition is highly…

We study structure formation in systems of classical particles in two dimensions with long-range attractive short-range repulsive two-body interactions and repulsive three-body interactions. Stripe, gossamer, and glass phases are found as a…

We study the quantum phase transitions in two-dimensional arrays of Josephson-couples junctions with short range Josephson couplings (given by the Josephson energy) and the charging energy. We map the problem onto the solvable quantum…

We study analytically the effect of a constant magnetic field on the dynamics of a two dimensional Josephson array. The magnetic field induces spatially dependent states and coupling between rows, even in the absence of an external load.…

We explore a spin Josephson effect in a system of two ferromagnets coupled by a tunnel junction formed of 2D time-reversal invariant topological insulators. In analogy with the more commonly studied instance of the Josephson effect for…

We study the effect of the interfacial transparency on the Josephson current in a diffusive ferromagnetic contact between two superconductors. In contrast to the cases of the fully transparent and the low-transparency interfaces, the…

We experimentally studied the effect of positional disorder on a Josephson junction array with $f = n$, ${1/2} + n$, or ${2/5} + n$ flux quanta per unit cell for integral $n$. This system provides an experimental realization of a…

Two-dimensional Josephson junction arrays frustrated by a perpendicular magnetic field are predicted to form a cascade of distinct vortex lattice states. Here, we show that the resistivity tensor provides both structural and dynamical…

We study the Josephson junction mediated by the quantum spin Hall edge states and show that electron-electron interactions lead to a dissipationless fractional Josephson effect in the presence of time-reversal symmetry. Surprisingly, the…

Various properties of mesoscopic two-dimensional Josephson junction arrays are reviewed. Particular attention is paid to structure of the topological excitations, charges and vortices, which are shown to be dual to each other. This duality…

A disordered spin model suitable for studying inverse freezing in fragile glass-forming systems is introduced. The model is a microscopic realization of the ``random-first order'' scenario in which the glass transition can be either…

In many cases inhomogeneities are known to exist near the metal (or superconductor)- insulator transition, as follows from well-known domain-wall arguments. If the conducting regions are large enough, and if they have superconducting…

We study the ground-state phase diagram of an unfrustrated antiferromagnetic Ising chain with longitudinal and transverse fields in the full range of interactions: from all-to-all to nearest-neighbors. First, we solve the model analytically…

We examine the phase diagram of an ordered one-dimensional Josephson array of small grains. The average grain charge in such a system can be tuned by means of gate voltage. At small grain-to-grain conductance, this system is strongly…

Discrete arrays of Josephson junction elements differ from their continuum counterparts in two essential ways: i) localized dynamic states in discrete arrays, which are not present in the corresponding continuum system, can interact with…

We shall discuss magnetization and transport measurements in materials exhibiting a broad first-order transition. The phase transitions would be caused by varying magnetic field as well as by varying temperature, and we concentrate on…

Phase-coexistence in the manganese-oxide compounds or manganites with colossal magneto-resistance (CMR) has been generally considered to be an inhomogeneous ground state. An alternative explanation of phase-coexistence as the manifestation…

An effective free energy of a two dimensional (i.e. large area) Josephson Junctions is derived, allowing for thermal fluctuations, for random magnetic fields and for external currents. We show by using replica symmetry breaking methods,…

Resonance diffraction in the periodic array of graphene micro-ribbons is theoretically studied following a recent experiment [L. Ju et al, Nature Nanotech. 6, 630 (2011)]. Systematic studies over a wide range of parameters are presented. It…

Quantum fluctuations of the phases of the order parameter in 2D arrays of mesoscopic Josephson junctions and their effect on the destruction of superconductivity in the system are investigated by means of a quantum-cosine model that is free…
