Transport in a spin incoherent Luttinger liquid
Gregory A. Fiete, Karyn Le Hur, Leon Balents
We theoretically investigate transport in a spin incoherent one dimensional electron system, which may be realized in quantum wires at low electron density and finite temperature.…
Anisotropic pyrochlores and the global phase diagram of the checkerboard antiferromagnet
Oleg A. Starykh, Akira Furusaki, Leon Balents
We study the phase diagram of two models of spin-1/2 antiferromagnets composed of corner-sharing tetrahedra, the basis of the pyrochlore structure. Primarily, we focus on the Heise…
Estimating the mass of vortices in the cuprate superconductors
Lorenz Bartosch, Leon Balents, Subir Sachdev
We explore the experimental implications of a recent theory of the quantum dynamics of vortices in superfluids proximate to Mott insulators (cond-mat/0408329 and cond-mat/0409470).…
Quantum phase transitions out of the heavy Fermi liquid
T. Senthil, Subir Sachdev, Matthias Vojta
We review recent work on the instability of the heavy Fermi liquid state (FL) of the Kondo lattice towards a magnetic metal in which the local moments are not part of the Fermi sea…
Competing orders II: the doped quantum dimer model
Leon Balents, Lorenz Bartosch, Anton Burkov +2
We study the phases of doped spin S=1/2 quantum antiferromagnets on the square lattice, as they evolve from paramagnetic Mott insulators with valence bond solid (VBS) order at zero…
Putting competing orders in their place near the Mott transition
Leon Balents, Lorenz Bartosch, Anton Burkov +2
We describe the localization transition of superfluids on two-dimensional lattices into commensurate Mott insulators with average particle density p/q (p, q relatively prime intege…
