Nonthermal order by disorder
Francesco Grandi, Antonio Picano, Ronny Thomale +2
The quench dynamics of systems exhibiting cooperative or almost competitive orders in equilibrium are explored using Ginzburg-Landau theory plus fluctuations. We show that when the…

Theories for charge-driven nematicity in kagome metals
Francesco Grandi, Michael A. Sentef, Dante M. Kennes +1
Starting from a low-energy continuum model for the band dispersion of the charge-ordered phase of the kagome metals VSb ( K, Rb, Cs), we show that nemat…

Nonequilibrium control of kagome metals
Francesco Grandi, Ronny Thomale, Dante M. Kennes
Exotic quantum order in kagome metals, i.e., quantum materials with a Fermi liquid parent state of electrons on a kagome lattice, has appeared as a vibrant emerging field of conden…
