This study combines molecular dynamics simulations and machine learning to reveal that high-pressure densification enhances the ductility and toughness of amorphous silica by altering local bonding topologies, thereby establishing a predictive link between initial atomic configurations and fracture propensity.
This paper employs a Heisenberg-equation approach based on the reaction-coordinate formalism to derive exact analytical dynamics for non-Markovian exceptional points, revealing that these points do not universally mark the onset of information revivals while providing new insights into bounds on revival counts, enhanced asymptotic relaxation, and reservoir-engineered control of irreversible information loss.
This paper demonstrates that vortexable Chern bands paired with time-reversed partners via orbital-diagonal attraction achieve the minimum possible zero-temperature superfluid stiffness (the "topological floor") for a given Chern number and filling, with any enhancement in stiffness strictly requiring a loss of vortexability.
This paper theoretically identifies monolayer van der Waals kagome materials of the family, particularly , as a promising platform for realizing high-temperature fractional Chern insulators and related topological phases due to their intrinsic topological flat bands, strong interactions, and tunable properties.
This paper demonstrates that strain effects induced by the granular nature of metallic Schottky gates are responsible for reducing electron mobility and suppressing fractional quantum Hall states in high-mobility GaAs/AlGaAs 2DEGs, a finding supported by commensurability oscillation experiments and COMSOL simulations.
This study combines stroboscopic optical scattering microscopy with finite-element simulations to reveal that the thermally driven propagation of insulator-metal phase boundaries in VO2 thin films is governed by local diffusive heat flow and latent heat inertia, establishing a framework for controlling phase-transition kinetics in photonics applications.
This paper demonstrates that the superconducting phase difference across a strongly coupled quantum dot Josephson junction can control the ground state fermion parity via phase-induced transitions near , offering a promising platform for exploring exotic phenomena like Majorana zero modes.
This paper demonstrates that superconducting Weyl semimetals host robust gapless vortex modes protected by a second Chern number in a synthetic four-dimensional space, arising from an imbalanced pumping of flux bound states between Chern insulators at opposite momenta.
This paper demonstrates that field-driven motion of Weyl nodes in pyrochlore iridates under a [111] magnetic field fundamentally governs the non-monotonic evolution of anomalous Hall conductivity, providing a microscopic framework for understanding transport in strongly correlated topological materials.
This paper establishes lower bounds on the magnetic tunneling splitting and hopping coefficient for two identical, non-symmetric potential wells at asymptotically large separation in a constant magnetic field, showing that these quantities decay no faster than for almost all separations.
