We investigate the Kosterlitz-Thouless transition for hexatic order on a free fluctuating membrane and derive both a Coulomb gas and a sine-Gordon Hamiltonian to describe it. The Coulomb-gas Hamiltonian includes charge densities arising…
We investigate the Kosterlitz-Thouless transition for hexatic order on a fluctuating spherical surface of genus zero and derive a Coulomb gas Hamiltonian to describe it. In the Coulomb gas Hamiltonian, charge densities arises from…
In the preceding paper, we derived Coulomb-gas and sine-Gordon Hamiltonians to describe the Kosterlitz-Thouless transition on a fluctuating surface. These Hamiltonians contain couplings to Gaussian curvature not found in a rigid flat…
We present the existence of the Kosterlitz-Thouless (KT) transition for $n$-atic tangent-plane order on a deformable spherical surface and investigate the development of quasi-long range $n$-atic order and the continuous shape changes below…
We study the competition between intersite and local correlations in a spinless two-band extended Hubbard model by taking an alternative limit of infinite dimensions. We find that the intersite density fluctuations suppress the charge Kondo…
The Landau-Ginzburg-Wilson hamiltonian is studied for different values of the parameter $\lambda$ which multiplies the quartic term (it turns out that this is equivalent to consider different values of the coherence length $\xi$ in units of…
We develop a sine-Gordon model of layered systems of two-dimensional modulated surfaces and one dimensional stripes, and demonstrate that these systems can undergo a Kosterlitz-Thouless transition in which the modulations unlock as a result…
We consider the interacting helical liquid system at the one-dimensional edge of a two-dimensional topological insulator, coupled to an external magnetic field and s-wave superconductor and map it to an XYZ spin chain system. This model…
We study the two-dimensional Ginzburg-Landau model of a neutral superfluid in the vicinity of the vortex unbinding transition. The model is mapped onto an effective interacting vortex gas by a systematic perturbative elimination of all…
A systematic study of the properties of particle and charge correlation functions in the two-dimensional Coulomb gas confined to a one-dimensional domain is undertaken. Two versions of this system are considered: one in which the positive…
With a rigorous renormalization group approach, we study the pressure of the two dimensional Coulomb Gas along a small piece of the Kosterlitz-Thouless transition line, i.e. the boundary of the dipole region in the activity-temperature…
We use Monte Carlo simulations to map out the phase diagram of the two dimensional Coulomb gas on a square lattice, as a function of density and temperature. We find that the Kosterlitz-Thouless transition remains up to higher charge…
The problem of the Kosterlitz-Thouless (KT) transition in the highly frustrated XY Kagom\'{e} antiferromagnet is solved. The problem is mapped onto that of the KT transition in the XY ferromagnet on the hexagonal lattice. The transition…
We demonstrate a three-dimensional Kosterlitz-Thouless (KT) transition in the random field XY model driven out of thermal equilibrium. By employing the spin-wave approximation and functional renormalization group approach, in the weak…
I consider models with an impurity spin coupled to a fluctuating gaussian field with or without additional Kondo coupling of the conventional sort. In the case of isotropic fluctuations, the renormalisation group flows for these models have…
The disorder-driven metal-insulator transition in the quantum spin Hall systems is studied by scaling analysis of the Thouless conductance $g$. Below a critical disorder strength, the conductance is independent of the sample size $M$, an…
Ordering of the geometrically frustrated two-dimensional Heisenberg antiferromagnet on a pyrochlore slab is studied by Monte Carlo simulations. In contrast to the kagom\'e Heisenberg antiferromagnet, the model exhibits locally non-coplanar…
We present an exact derivation for the asymptotic large distance behavior of the spin two-point correlation function in the XY-model. This allows for the exact obtainment of the critical exponent $\eta=1/4$ at the Kosterlitz-Thouless…
Monolayers of the halomethane CF$_3$Br adsorbed on graphite have been investigated by x-ray diffraction. The layers crystallize in a commensurate triangular lattice. On cooling they approach a three-sublattice antiferroelectric pattern of…
In this work we start from the Higgs prototype model to introduce a new model, which makes a smooth transition between systems with well located minima and systems that support no minima at all. We implement this possibility using the…
