Interacting hard-core bosons and surface preroughening

Alessandro Laio, Giuseppe Santoro, Erio Tosatti

The theory of the preroughening transition of an unreconstructed surface, and the ensuing disordered flat (DOF) phase, is formulated in terms of interacting steps. Finite terraces…

Stationary states of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation with linear counterpart

Roberto D'Agosta, Boris A. Malomed, Carlo Presilla

We study the stationary solutions of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation that reduce, in the limit of vanishing non-linearity, to the eigenfunctions of the associated Schrödinger equatio…
