Perfectly hidden order and Z2 confinement transition in a fully packed monopole liquid
Attila Szabo, Santiago A. Grigera, P. C. W. Holdsworth +5
We investigate a variant of spin ice whose degenerate ground states are densely packed monopole configurations. An applied field drives this model through a Z2 confinement transiti…
Conformal Boundary as Holographic Dual to the Hyperbolic Fracton Model
Alejo Costa Duran, Mauricio Sturla, Ludovic D. C. Jaubert +1
In addition to describing our universe, gravitational theories profoundly inspire the study of emergent properties of exotic phases of matter. While the Anti-de Sitter/conformal fi…
The Inertial Spin Model of flocking with position-dependent forces
Sebastián Carruitero, Alejo Costa Duran, Giulia Pisegna +2
We propose an extension to the ISM of flocking and swarming. The model has been introduced to explain certain dynamic features of swarming (second sound, a lower than expected dyna…
Quantum Fluctuations in the van der Walls material
Paula Mellado, Mauricio Sturla
We present the magnetic excitation spectrum of the quantum magnet near the zig-zag ground state of a minimal honeycomb spin Hamiltonian that includes bilinear and biqu…
