We investigate the nature of the phase transitions in the quantum Ashkin-Teller chain in the presence of chiral perturbations. We locate the Lifshitz line separating a region of direct chiral transitions from the region where the transition is through an i ...
This thesis reports on the realization of the first experiments conducted with superfluid, strongly interacting Fermi gases of 6Li coupled to the light field of an optical cavity. In the scope of existing ultracold atomic platforms, this is the first time ...
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 ...
In this paper, we demonstrate that it is possible to approach the gas-liquid critical point of the Lennard-Jones fluid by performing simulations in a slab geometry using a cut-off potential. In the slab simulation geometry, it is essential to apply an accu ...
In this paper, we consider nonlinear Schrodinger equations of the following type: -Delta u(x) + V (x) u(x) -q(x)|u(x)|sigma u(x) =lambda u(x), x is an element of R-N, u is an element of H-1(R-N) \ {0}, where N >= 2 and sigma > 0. We concentrate on situatio ...

Hot cracking is a spontaneous failure of an alloy during solidification. It is a severe problem for casting industry as it reduces the productivity of cast houses and limits the range of alloys compositions that can be industrially produced. Hot tears occu ...
