Analogue Gravity Models From Conformal Rescaling

open access: yes, 2020
Analogue gravity is based on a mathematical identity between quantum field theory in curved space-time and the propagation of perturbations in certain condensed matter systems.

Drag suppression in anomalous chiral media [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We study a heavy impurity moving longitudinal with the direction of an external magnetic field in an anomalous chiral medium. Such system would carry a non-dissipative current of chiral magnetic effect associated with the anomaly.

Nonlinearity-assisted quantum tunneling in a matter-wave interferometer

open access: yes, 2007
We investigate the {\em nonlinearity-assisted quantum tunneling} and formation of nonlinear collective excitations in a matter-wave interferometer, which is realised by the adiabatic transformation of a double-well potential into a single-well harmonic ...

Sensitivity of Hawking radiation to superluminal dispersion relations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We analyze the Hawking radiation process due to collapsing configurations in the presence of superluminal modifications of the dispersion relation. With such superluminal dispersion relations, the horizon effectively becomes a frequency-dependent concept.

Status of Horava gravity: A personal perspective

open access: yes, 2011
Horava gravity is a relatively recent (Jan 2009) idea in theoretical physics for trying to develop a quantum field theory of gravity. It is not a string theory, nor loop quantum gravity, but is instead a traditional quantum field theory that breaks ...

Dark Matter Superfluidity

open access: yes, 2016
In this talk I summarize a novel framework that unifies the stunning success of MOND on galactic scales with the triumph of the $\Lambda$CDM model on cosmological scales. This is achieved through the rich and well-studied physics of superfluidity.

Hydrodynamic fluctuations and the minimum shear viscosity of the dilute Fermi gas at unitarity

open access: yes, 2013
We study hydrodynamic fluctuations in a non-relativistic fluid. We show that in three dimensions fluctuations lead to a minimum in the shear viscosity to entropy density ratio $\eta/s$ as a function of the temperature.

Schrodinger Fermi Liquids

open access: yes, 2013
A class of strongly interacting many-body fermionic systems in 2+1D non-relativistic conformal field theory is examined via the gauge-gravity duality correspondence.

Fermionic Superfluid from a Bilayer Band Insulator in an Optical Lattice

open access: yes, 2012
We propose a model to realize a fermionic superfluid state in an optical lattice circumventing the cooling problem. Our proposal exploits the idea of tuning the interaction in a characteristically low entropy state, a band-insulator in an optical bilayer

Topological superconductors as nonrelativistic limits of Jackiw-Rossi and Jackiw-Rebbi models

open access: yes, 2010
We argue that the nonrelativistic Hamiltonian of p_x+ip_y superconductor in two dimensions can be derived from the relativistic Jackiw-Rossi model by taking the limit of large Zeeman magnetic field and chemical potential.
