This paper consists of three parts. In part I, we microscopically derive Ginzburg–Landau (GL) theory from BCS theory for translation-invariant systems in which multiple types of superconductivity may coexist. Our motivation are unconventional superconducto ...
We investigate the transport properties of neutral, fermionic atoms passing through a one-dimensional quantum wire containing a mesoscopic lattice. The lattice is realized by projecting individually controlled, thin optical barriers on top of a ballistic c ...
The antisymmetry of a fermionic quantum state has a marked effect on its entanglement properties. Recently, Carlen, Lieb and Reuvers (CLR) studied this effect, in particular concerning the entropy of the two-body reduced density matrix of a fermionic state ...
We consider a gas of fermions at zero temperature and low density, interacting via a microscopic two-body potential which admits a bound state. The particles are confined to a domain with Dirichlet boundary conditions. Starting from the microscopic BCS the ...
Revealing the emergence and the dynamics of collective excitations in complex matter is a subject of pivotal importance, as it provides insight into the strength and spatial distribution of interactions and correlations. At the same time, collectivity lies ...
The extension of the linear flavor-wave theory to fully antisymmetric irreducible representations (irreps) of SU(N) is presented in order to investigate the color order of SU(N) antiferromagnetic Heisenberg models in several two-dimensional geometries. The ...
In this work we discuss an analytic bootstrap approach [1, 2] in the context of spinning 4D conformal blocks [3, 4]. As an example we study the simplest spinning case, the scalar-fermion correlator. We find that to every pair of primary scalar phi and ferm ...
We construct a 2 + 1 dimensional model that sustains superconductivity at all temperatures. This is achieved by introducing a Chern-Simons mixing term between two Abelian gauge fields A and Z. The superfluid is described by a complex scalar charged under Z ...
We develop an efficient method to perform density matrix renormalization group simulations of the SU(N) Heisenberg chain with open boundary conditions taking full advantage of the SU(N) symmetry of the problem. This method is an extension of the method pre ...
We report on coupled heat and particle transport measurements through a quantum point contact (QPC) connecting two reservoirs of resonantly interacting, finite temperature Fermi gases. After heating one of them, we observe a particle current flowing from c ...
