Abstract

The crossover behavior of the semi--infinite three dimensional Ising model is investigated by means of Pad\'e approximant analysis of cluster variation method results. We give estimates for ordinary critical as well as for multicritical exponents, which are in very good agreement with extensive Monte Carlo simulations.

Order Parameters, Broken Symmetry, and Topology

We introduce the theoretical framework we use to study the bewildering variety of phases in condensed--matter physics. We emphasize the importance of the breaking of symmetries, and develop the idea of an order parameter through several examples. We discuss elementary excitations and the topological theory of defects.

Stability of the two-dimensional Bose gases in the resonant regime

We consider a two-dimensional Bose gas formed in a planar atomic trap in conditions where the two-dimensional scattering length exceeds all other microscopic length scales in the system and, accordingly, the gas parameter assumes relatively high values. We show that, unlike in the three-dimensional case, for sufficiently low areal densities the two-dimensional gas remains stable against collapse even in the resonant regime. Furthermore, we evaluate the three-body recombination rate that sets the upper limit for the life-time of two-dimensional resonant atomic condensate.

Voltage-probe and imaginary potential models for dephasing in a chaotic quantum dot

We compare two widely used models for dephasing in a chaotic quantum dot: The introduction of a fictitious voltage probe into the scattering matrix and the addition of an imaginary potential to the Hamiltonian. We identify the limit in which the two models are equivalent and compute the distribution of the conductance in that limit. Our analysis explains why previous treatments of dephasing gave different results. The distribution remains non-Gaussian for strong dephasing if the coupling of the quantum dot to the electron reservoirs is via ballistic single-mode point contacts, but becomes Gaussian if the coupling is via tunneling contacts.
