Non-vanishing of primitive cubic, quartic and sextic L-functions

Ziwei Hong

We establish lower bounds for the non-vanishing proportions of primitive cubic, quartic and sextic Dirichlet -functions over $\F_q[T]$ in the non-Kummer setting. Adapting trunca…

Absence of solid phase in dense amorphous active granular matter

Cunyuan Jiang

Solid phase of dense granular matter is inevitable because of jamming transition when the packing fraction or the pressure suffered is high enough. The experiment suggests that act…

Vibrational inhomogeneity in amorphous solids and its geometric features

Cunyuan Jiang

The dynamical response of amorphous solids is expected to be inhomogeneous due to the absence of translational symmetry, unlike in crystals. In this work, we use Green's function m…

A flat-band perspective on the boson peak in amorphous solids

Shivam Mahajan, Long-Zhou Huang, Cunyuan Jiang +4

The boson peak is a characteristic anomaly of amorphous solids broadly defined as a low-energy excess in the density of states and heat capacity compared to the textbook prediction…

Can we build a transistor using vacancy-induced bound states in a topological insulator

Cunyuan Jiang

Topological insulators (TIs) have been considered as promising candidates for next generation of electronic devices due to their topologically protected quantum transport phenomena…

Designing atomic-scale resistive circuits in topological insulators through vacancy-induced localized modes

Cunyuan Jiang, Weicen Dong, Matteo Baggioli

We demonstrate that vacancies can induce topologically protected localized electronic excitations within the bulk of a topological insulator, and when sufficiently close, give rise…

Topological signatures of collective dynamics and turbulent-like energy cascades in apolar active granular

Zihan Zheng, Cunyuan Jiang, Yangrui Chen +2

Active matter refers to a broad class of non-equilibrium systems where energy is continuously injected at the level of individual ``particles". These systems exhibit emergent colle…

The anomalous density of states and quasi-localized vibration through homogeneous thermalization of an inhomogeneous elastic system

Cunyuan Jiang

Amorphous solids are dynamically inhomogeneous due to in lack of translational symmetry and hence exhibit vibrational properties different from crystalline solids with anomalous lo…

Revealing the Geometrical and Vibrational Properties of the Defects Driving the Boson Peak

Shivam Mahajan, Darryl Seow Yang Han, Cunyuan Jiang +2

In amorphous solids, the vibrational density of states shows an excess of modes over the Debye model, known as the boson peak, whose origin remains unclear. Studies suggest a link…

Experimental observation of gapped shear waves and liquid-like to gas-like dynamical crossover in active granular matter

Cunyuan Jiang, Zihan Zheng, Yangrui Chen +2

Unlike crystalline solids, liquids lack long-range order, resulting in diffusive shear fluctuations rather than propagating waves. Simulations predict that liquids exhibit a -ga…
