We determine the characteristic length scale, $L(t)$, in phase ordering kinetics for both scalar and vector fields, with either short- or long-range interactions, and with or without conservation laws. We obtain $L(t)$ consistently by…
The dynamical phase transition of a system with two coexisting competing order parameters is studied using the time-dependent-Ginzburg-Landau framework. The dynamics are induced by parameters capturing the physics of driving the system with…
Spontaneous time-reversal symmetry breaking plays an important role in studying strongly correlated unconventional superconductors. When two superconducting gap functions with different symmetries compete, the relative phase channel…
We report a phenomenological theory for the kinetic arrest (KA) of a first-order phase transition, taking the Mott metal-insulator transition in $V_2O_3$ as a test case. By defining a order parameter $\phi$ related to the monoclinic…
We study phase segregation in a model alloy undergoing both ordering and decomposition, using computer simulations of Kawasaki exchange dynamics on a square lattice. Following a quench into the miscibility gap we observe an early stage in…
We derive an order-parameter field theory for a quantum phase transition between a disordered metal and an exotic (non-s-wave) superconductor. Mode coupling effects between the order parameter and other fermionic soft modes lead to an…
We discuss the static and kinetic properties of a Ginzburg-Landau spherically symmetric $O(N)$ model recently introduced (Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 75}, 2176, (1995)) in order to generalize the so called Phase field model of Langer. The…
The origin of the non commutativity of the limits $t \to \infty$ and $N \to \infty$ in the dynamics of first order transitions is investigated. In the large-N model, i.e. $N \to \infty$ taken first, the low temperature phase is…
We consider a two-dimensional interacting Fermi system which displays a nematic phase within mean-field theory. The system is analyzed using a non-perturbative renormalization-group scheme. We find that order-parameter fluctuations can…
We consider an off-lattice liquid crystal pair potential in strictly two dimensions. The potential is purely repulsive and short-ranged. Nevertheless, by means of a single parameter in the potential, the system is shown to undergo a…
The phase ordering properties of lattices of band-chaotic maps coupled diffusively with some coupling strength $g$ are studied in order to determine the limit value $g_e$ beyond which multistability disappears and non-trivial collective…
In the conceptual framework of phase ordering after temperature quenches below transition, we consider the underdamped Bales-Gooding-type 'momentum conserving' dynamics of a 2D martensitic structural transition from a square-to-rectangle…
Dynamical scaling in ageing systems, notably in phase-ordering kinetics, is well-established. New evidence in favour of Galilei-invariance in phase-ordering kinetics is reviewed.
We investigate the one-dimensional finite-size XY model with opposing surface fields in the X direction. Exact solutions are obtained for the two-site and three-site models, while numerical methods are employed for models with more than…
We develop a fully microscopic, statistical mechanics approach to study phase transitions in Ising systems with competing interactions at different scales. Our aim is to consider orientational and positional order parameters in a unified…
We study the ageing properties of the semi-infinite kinetic spherical model at the critical point and in the ordered low-temperature phase, both for Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions. The surface fluctuation-dissipation ratio and…
We present a simple theory accounting for two central observations in a recent experiment on quantum coarsening and collective dynamics on a programmable quantum simulator [T. Manovitz et al., Nature \textbf{638}, 86 (2025)]: an apparent…
Macroscopic systems with continuous symmetries subjected to oscillatory fields have phases and transitions that are qualitatively different from their equilibrium ones. Depending on the amplitude and frequency of the fields applied,…
We study the phase diagram and critical behaviors of three-dimensional lattice ${\mathbb Z}_2$-gauge $N$-vector models, in which an $N$-component real field is minimally coupled with a ${\mathbb Z}_2$-gauge link variables. These models are…
The dynamics of a non-autonomous oscillator in which the phase and frequency of the external force depend on the dynamical variable is studied. Such a control of the phase and frequency of the external force leads to the appearance of…
