Motivated by recent experiments, we investigate the excitation energy of a proximitized
Rashba wire in the presence of a position dependent pairing. In particular, we focus on the …

The simplest possible structural transition that an electronic system can undergo is Wigner
crystallization. The aim of this short review is to discuss the main aspects of three recent …

Zigzag nanoribbons hosting the Haldane Chern insulator model are considered. In this
context, a reentrant topological phase, characterized by the emergence of quasi zero …

The properties of the strongly interacting edge states of two dimensional topological
insulators in the presence of two-particle backscattering are investigated. We find an …

Thermal effects on the total charge density are studied for a one-dimensional correlated
quantum dot by means of the path integral Monte Carlo method. The competition between …

The properties of prototypical examples of one-dimensional fermionic systems undergoing a
sudden quantum quench from a gapless state to a (partially) gapped state are analyzed. By …

Using a Luttinger liquid theory we investigate the time evolution of the particle density of a
one-dimensional fermionic system with open boundaries and subject to a finite duration …

The possibility of injecting a single electron into ballistic conductors is at the basis of the new
field of electron quantum optics. Here, we consider a single electron injection into the helical …

The electron (hole) spin–photon interaction is studied in an asymmetrical InSb (Ge)
nanowire quantum dot. The spin–orbit coupling in the quantum dot mediates not only a …

We show that correlated two-particle backscattering can induce fractional charge oscillations
in a quantum dot built at the edge of a two-dimensional topological insulator by means of …
