Diagnosing weakly first-order phase transitions by coupling to order parameters

The hunt for exotic quantum phase transitions described by emergent fractionalized de-grees of freedom coupled to gauge fields requires a precise determination of the fixed point structure from the field theoretical side, and an extreme sensitivity to weak ...

A Statistical Physics approach to a multi-channel Wigner spiked model

Emanuele Mingione, Diego Alberici

In this letter we present a finite temperature approach to a high-dimensional inference problem, the Wigner spiked model, with group-dependent signal-to-noise ratios. For two classes of convex and non-convex network architectures the error in the reconstru ...

Temperature dependence of the(pi,0)anomaly in the excitation spectrum of the 2D quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnet

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Martin Mourigal, Goran Nilsen

It is well established that in the low-temperature limit, the two-dimensional quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnet on a square lattice (2DQHAFSL) exhibits an anomaly in its spectrum at short-wavelengths on the zone-boundary. In the vicinity of the (pi, 0) po ...

Theories of topologically-induced phenomena in skyrmion-hosting magnetoelectric insulators

Oleksandr Kriuchkov

There once was a harsh competition between different computer memory technologies, and now we cheer triumph for the Random Access-Memory (RAM) devices, -- cheap, fast, tiny, stable. The competing Magnetic Bubble Memory had faded away as magnetic bubbles ar ...

A concurrent atomistic and continuum coupling method with applications to thermo-mechanical problems

Jean-François Molinari, Guillaume Anciaux, Srinivasa Babu Ramisetti

We present a novel method to couple molecular dynamics with finite elements at finite temperatures using spatial filters. The mismatch in the dispersion relations between continuum and atomistic models leads, at finite temperature, to unwanted mesh vibrati ...

Nonlinear Spectroscopy of a Dissipative Polariton Quantum Fluid

Verena Kohnle

After the observation of Bose-Einstein condensation in the solid state in 2006 and the demonstration on its superfluid character in 2009 the interest for the demonstration of the underlying elementary excitations – the Bogoliubov excitations – was growing. ...
