Using a collective coordinate numerical optimization procedure, we construct ground-state configurations of interacting particle systems in various space dimensions so that the scattering of radiation exactly matches a prescribed pattern…
We show that some gapped quantum many-body systems have a ground state degeneracy that is stable to long-range (e.g., power-law) perturbations, in the sense that any ground state energy splitting induced by such perturbations is…
It has been shown numerically that systems of particles interacting with "stealthy" bounded, long-ranged pair potentials (similar to Friedel oscillations) have classical ground states that are, counterintuitively, disordered, hyperuniform…
The sensitivity of the random field Ising model to small random perturbations of the quenched disorder is studied via exact ground states obtained with a maximum-flow algorithm. In one and two space dimensions we find a mild form of chaos,…
Geometrically frustrated materials have a ground-state degeneracy that may be lifted by subtle effects, such as higher order interactions causing small energetic preferences for ordered structures. Alternatively, ordering may result from…
We solve a longstanding problem--determining structural information for disordered materials from their diffraction spectra--for the case of planar disorder in close-packed structures (CPSs). Our solution offers the most complete possible…
We study one-dimensional disordered systems with average non-invertible symmetries, where quenched disorder may locally break part of the symmetry while preserving it upon disorder averaging. A canonical example is the random…
We study electronic transport properties of disordered polymers in the presence of both uncorrelated and short-range correlated impurities. In our procedure, the actual physical potential acting upon the electrons is replaced by a set of…
We show that phase transitions in Ising systems with planar defects, i.e., disorder perfectly correlated in two dimensions are destroyed by smearing. This is caused by effects similar to but stronger than the Griffiths phenomena:…
The disordered ferromagnet is a disordered version of the ferromagnetic Ising model in which the coupling constants are non-negative quenched random. A ground configuration is an infinite-volume configuration whose energy cannot be reduced…
In this review article, we discuss connections between the physics of disordered systems, phase transitions in inference problems, and computational hardness. We introduce two models representing the behavior of glassy systems, the spiked…
Disorder in quantum systems can lead to the disruption of long-range order in the ground state and to the localization of the elementary excitations - famous examples thereof being the Bose glass of interacting bosons in a disordered or…
Stealthy potentials, a family of long-range isotropic pair potentials, produce infinitely degenerate disordered ground states at high densities and crystalline ground states at low densities in d-dimensional Euclidean space R^d. In the…
Disordered hyperuniform many-particle systems have attracted considerable recent attention. One important class of such systems is the classical ground states of "stealthy potentials." The degree of order of such ground states depends on a…
Positioned between crystalline solids and liquids, disordered many-particle systems which are stealthy and hyperuniform represent new states of matter that are endowed with novel physical and thermodynamic properties. Such stealthy and…
We explore phases of two-component Rydberg-dressed Bose-Einstein condensates in three spatial dimensions. The competition between the effective ranges of inter- and intra-component soft-core interactions leads to a rich variety of ground…
We report our research on disordered complex systems using cold gases and trapped ions, and address the possibility of using complex systems for quantum information processing. Two simple paradigmatic models of disordered complex systems…
We consider a two-dimensional Ising model with random i.i.d. nearest-neighbor ferromagnetic couplings and no external magnetic field. We show that, if the probability of supercritical couplings is small enough, the system admits a…
We give a generalization of Morita's works on ground states of Ising chains, for chains with a periodic structure with different spins, and distant neighbor interactions. The main assumption is translational invariance. The length of the…
We study the spectral properties of disordered superconductors with Ising spin-orbit coupling (ISOC) subjected to in-plane magnetic fields. In addition to the conventional singlet pairing, we also consider the recently proposed equal-spin…
