Scale-dependent competing interactions: sign reversal of the average persistent current
H. Bary-Soroker, O. Entin-Wohlman, Y. Imry +1
The interaction-induced orbital magnetic response of a nanoscale system, modeled by the persistent current in a ring geometry, is evaluated for a system which is a superconductor i…
Emergent percolation length and localization in random elastic networks
Ariel Amir, Jacob J. Krich, Vincenzo Vitelli +2
We study, theoretically and numerically, a minimal model for phonons in a disordered system. For sufficient disorder, the vibrational modes of this classical system can become Ande…
The n_s - T_c correlations in granular superconductors
Y. Imry, M. Strongin, C. C. Homes
Following a short discussion of the granular model for an inhomogeneous superconductor, we review the Uemura and Homes correlations and show how both follow in two limits of a simp…
Reentrance and Magnetic-Field-Induced Superconductivity with Kondo Impurities: Bulk and Proximity Systems
Yuval B. Simons, Ora Entin-Wohlman, Yuval Oreg +1
Reentrant behavior is known to exist and magnetic-field-induced superconductivity has been predicted in superconductors with Kondo impurities. We present a simple framework for und…
Limitations on the Ginzburg criterion for dirty superconductors
A. Aharony, O. Entin-Wohlman, H. Bary-Soroker +1
The contributions of superconducting fluctuations to the specific heat of dirty superconductors are calculated, including quantum and classical corrections to the `usual' leading G…
Straightforward quantum-mechanical derivation of the Crooks fluctuation theorem and the Jarzynski equality
Doron Cohen, Yoseph Imry
We obtain the Crooks and the Jarzynski non-equilibrium fluctuation relations using a direct quantum-mechanical approach for a finite system that is either isolated or coupled not t…
