Gapped momentum states

M Baggioli, M Vasin, V Brazhkin, K Trachenko - Physics Reports, 2020 - Elsevier
Important properties of a particle, wave or a statistical system depend on the form of a
dispersion relation (DR). Two commonly-discussed dispersion relations are the gapless …

Non-reciprocal phase transitions

M Fruchart, R Hanai, PB Littlewood, V Vitelli - Nature, 2021 - nature.com
Out of equilibrium, a lack of reciprocity is the rule rather than the exception. Non-reciprocity
occurs, for instance, in active matter,,,,–, non-equilibrium systems,–, networks of neurons …

Pseudo-spontaneous U (1) symmetry breaking in hydrodynamics and holography

M Ammon, D Arean, M Baggioli, S Gray… - Journal of High Energy …, 2022 - Springer
