description: Northamptonshire Archaeology, 12, 185-190
description: The largest Roman barrow cemetery in Britain (eighteen barrows known in 1712, all now gone) is reassessed from records of their opening in 1823 and from the dozen vessels which remain. The barrows were small for their type but some probably covered pyres. A substantial building nearby dug in 1823 and 1852 was probably a villa, not a temple.
Spectral instability of small-amplitude periodic waves of the electronic Euler-Poisson system

description: The present work shows that essentially all small-amplitude periodic traveling waves of the electronic Euler-Poisson system are spectrally unstable. This instability is neither modulational nor co-periodic, and thus requires an unusual spectral analysis and, beyond specific computations, newly devised arguments. The growth rate with respect to the amplitude of the background waves is also provided when the instability occurs.
description: In this new version, we carried out some simulations on the shapes of spectral curves around second to fourth crossing and find that they form instability bubbles asymptotically shaped as an ellipse. This version represents a comprehensive and detailed version of the forthcoming paper to appear in the journal "Nonlinearity."

description: Lors de notre formation pratique, un des rituels mis en place dans les classes des petits degrés de la scolarité nous a particulièrement interpellées. Il s’agit du rituel du calendrier. Ce dernier est effectué quotidiennement dans la plupart des classes et est plus ou moins « protocolé » selon les façons de faire des enseignantes. Au vu des supports utilisés et des manières dont il est mené, nous nous sommes demandées si les élèves apprenaient réellement quelque chose lors de ce moment rituel et si celui-ci permettait vraiment de travailler un des objectifs du PER en lien avec le concept du temps qui est : « se situer dans son contexte temporel et social en se représentant le temps vécu à l’aide d’un système de repérage » (SHS12). Nous avons alors décidé, pour ce mémoire professionnel, de nous intéresser aux rituels du calendrier tels qu’ils sont menés dans deux classes de CIN (1ère et 2ème HarmoS). Nous nous sommes également penchées sur d’autres activités en lien avec le concept de temps qui ont été mises en place dans l’une des deux classes. Notre recherche consiste donc à observer de façon concrète et systématique, la manière dont s’effectue le travail autour de la notion de temps dans ces deux classes, tout en mettant l’accent sur les moments de rituels du calendrier. Nous avons ensuite comparé ce qui se passe dans les deux classes, afin de comprendre les réels enjeux du rituel et afin de chercher à savoir comment le concept de temps s’acquiert par les enfants. Ce mémoire vise donc à décrire l’utilisation habituelle du calendrier dans nos deux classes de stage lors des moments de rituels. Il cherche également à comprendre les liens qu’il pourrait y avoir entre l’utilisation du calendrier en classe et l’acquisition de la notion de temps par les élèves. Enfin, il vise à tester et à observer l’impact qu’ont d’autres activités en lien avec le concept de temps dans la compréhension que peuvent en avoir les élèves.

Lines of descent in population genetics models with mutation and frequency-dependent selection

Publisher: name: Universität Bielefeld
Year: 2023
Subjects: subject: 510

description: In population genetics, the branch of biology concerned with the evolution of the genetic composition of populations, models relative to ancestral structures have proven to be invaluable tools of research. In particular, in the case of so–called genic selection, the ancestral selection graph (ASG) has provided great insight into the type-frequency evolution of a population, both backwards and forwards in time. The aim of this thesis is to capitalize on these ideas further in order to tackle the case of mutation and frequency–dependent selection, which we represent as an analytic function of the current type–frequency. This endeavor proves immediately satisfactory only under some particular selective regimes, which we denote as *nonlinear dominance*, and represent with two different Moran models, which will turn out to be equivalent. For this type of selection, we are able to the develop a corresponding killed and pruned lookdown ASG, obtaining results about the asymptotic behaviour of the type-frequency of the population at the current time and in the past. In particular, we connect these processes to the Moran model and a relative thereof through (factorial) moment duality. All the results are then extended to the diffusion limit. Outside the regime of nonlinear dominance, we ostensively show that the previously used methods are not effective. Nevertheless, we exploit the graphical intuition provided by the ASG to define a continuous-time Markov chain, the *(monomial) coefficient process*, parallel to the Bernstein coefficient process by Cordero, Hummel and Schertzer [CHS22]. We show the connection of this object with the diffusion limit of the Moran model with polynomial frequency–dependent selection, mutation and large offspring events through a new duality. We show the potential of this approach by obtaining a first result under appropriate parameter conditions, which we expect to be sharpened by forthcoming research.

Nos questionnements ne s’arrêtant pas à cette seule dimension, nous avons également souhaité connaître la perception que les élèves avaient de l’autorité. Notre problématique s’est petit à petit modifiée dans le but d’obtenir le résultat suivant : Permissifs, autoritaires ou démocratiques, comment les enseignants de nos établissements se définissent-ils, quelles perceptions ont les élèves de l’autorité et quelles sont les méthodes mises en place par ces enseignants pour optimiser les apprentissages de la classe? Les démarches que nous avons entreprises pour tester notre question de recherche ont été les suivantes : premièrement nous avons fait passer un questionnaire aux élèves afin de connaître les représentations qu’ils avaient de l’autorité ainsi que leurs perceptions de cette dernière. Dans un deuxième temps nous avons réalisé un canevas d’entretien que nous avons utilisé comme support lors de nos quatre interviews. Comme mentionné dans la méthodologie nous avons mené ces entretiens aussi bien avec des hommes que des femmes. Notre but était d’en apprendre plus sur les différentes démarches à entreprendre pour améliorer notre autorité mais cela nous a également permis d’avoir une prise de conscience concernant le type d’enseignant et d’enseignement que les élèves affectionnent le plus. Les résultats de cette recherche menée sur le terrain et en lien avec la théorie élaborée sur le sujet nous ont permis d’en tirer de nombreux éléments intéressants à mettre en place dans notre pratique. Nous avons beaucoup appris sur la manière dont les enseignants se perçoivent et sur l’importance qu’ils soulignent sur le respect des élèves mais aussi le respect mutuel. Ce travail de mémoire nous a également beaucoup apporté sur un plan personnel puisque nous avons dû gérer la collaboration lors de l’élaboration de cette recherche. Nous avons approfondi nos connaissances sur les méthodes d’analyse et nous sommes également arrivées à surpasser les difficultés que nous avons rencontrées dans la mise en route de nos entretiens.

description: The SVOM satellite, to be launched in early 2024, is primarily devoted to the multi-wavelength observation of gamma-ray bursts and other higher-energy transients. Thanks to its onboard Microchannel X-ray Telescope and Visible-band Telescope, it is also very well adapted to the electromagnetic follow-up of gravitational wave events. We discuss the SVOM rapid follow-up strategy for gravitational wave trigger candidates provided by LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA. In particular, we make use of recent developments of galaxy catalogs adapted to the horizon of gravitational wave detectors to optimise the chance of counterpart discovery. We also take into account constraints specific to the SVOM platform. Finally, we implement the production of the SVOM observation plan following a gravitational wave alert and quantify the efficiency of several optimisations introduced in this work.

description: We propose anti-ferromagnets as optimal targets to hunt for sub-MeV dark matter with spin-dependent interactions. These materials allow for multi-magnon emission even for very small momentum transfers, and are therefore sensitive to dark matter particles as light as the keV. We use an effective theory to compute the event rates in a simple way. Among the materials studied here, we identify nickel oxide (a well-assessed anti-ferromagnet) as an ideal candidate target. Indeed, the propagation speed of its gapless magnons is very close to the typical dark matter velocity, allowing the absorption of all its kinetic energy, even through the emission of just a single magnon.

Pour cela, nous définissons les concepts d’égalité, de stéréotypes, d’identité sexuée et voyons si ces notions évoluent après la mise en place d’activités tirées de l’outil en classe. Nous mettons également en évidence comment les différents agents de socialisation (la famille, l’environnement, l’enseignant, les stades du développement psychologique) peuvent agir sur les enfants. L’éventuel changement est mesuré grâce à la passation de pré-test avant la mise en place des deux activités choisies, puis par un post-test à la fin de la séquence. Ces deux tests seront identiques afin de faciliter la comparaison. Les activités choisies sont tirées de l’outil « S’exercer à l’égalité II » et ont été choisies pour leur application avec des élèves de 5ème HarmoS (H) et de 7ème HarmoS (H). Il s’agit d’une activité de français (accord des noms au masculin et au féminin) ainsi qu’une activité de mathématiques (lecture de graphiques). Cette recherche a lieu dans deux classes où les élèves n’ont pas le même âge (5H et 7H) nous traitons aussi les différences de résultats. Les pré-tests / post-tests sont analysés séparément afin de se rendre compte des conceptions des élèves puis opérons une comparaison entre ces résultats. Ce sont ces derniers qui nous permettent de répondre à notre question de recherche : « Quel est l’apport des activités proposées par l’outil « S’exercer à l’égalité » sur les opinions des élèves en matière de stéréotypes de sexe et d’égalité des genres? ».

description: The triangular-lattice Fermi-Hubbard model has been extensively investigated in the literature due to its connection to chiral spin states and unconventional superconductivity. Previous simulations of the ground state of the doped system rely on quasi-one-dimensional lattices where true long-range order is forbidden. Here we simulate two-dimensional and quasi-one-dimensional triangular lattices using state-of-the-art Auxiliary-Field Quantum Monte Carlo. Upon doping a non-magnetic chiral spin state, we observe evidence of chiral superconductivity supported by long-range order in Cooper-pair correlation and a finite value of the chiral order parameter. With this aim, we first locate the transition from the metallic to the non-magnetic insulating phase and the onset of magnetic order. Our results pave the way towards a better understanding of strongly correlated lattice systems with magnetic frustration.

description: The article reviews significant advances in networked signal and information processing, which have enabled in the last 25 years extending decision making and inference, optimization, control, and learning to the increasingly ubiquitous environments of distributed agents. As these interacting agents cooperate, new collective behaviors emerge from local decisions and actions. Moreover, and significantly, theory and applications show that networked agents, through cooperation and sharing, are able to match the performance of cloud or federated solutions, while offering the potential for improved privacy, increasing resilience, and saving resources.

description: A way of constructing continuous matrix product states (cMPS) for coupled fields is presented here. The cMPS is a variational \emph{ansatz} for the ground state of quantum field theories in one dimension. Our proposed scheme is based in the physical interpretation in which the cMPS class can be produced by means of a dissipative dynamic of a system interacting with a bath. We study the case of coupled bosonic fields. We test the method with previous DMRG results in coupled Lieb Liniger models. Besides, we discuss a novel application for characterizing the Luttinger liquid theory emerging in the low energy regime of these theories. Finally, we propose a circuit QED architecture as a quantum simulator for coupled fields.

description: Rapid, high-fidelity single-shot readout of quantum states is a ubiquitous requirement in quantum information technologies, playing a crucial role in quantum computation, quantum error correction, and fundamental tests of non-locality. Readout of the spin state of an optically active emitter can be achieved by driving a spin-preserving optical transition and detecting the emitted photons. The speed and fidelity of this approach is typically limited by a combination of low photon collection rates and measurement back-action. Here, we demonstrate single-shot optical readout of a semiconductor quantum dot spin state, achieving a readout time of only a few nanoseconds. In our approach, gated semiconductor quantum dots are embedded in an open microcavity. The Purcell enhancement generated by the microcavity increases the photon creation rate from one spin state but not from the other, as well as efficiently channelling the photons into a well-defined detection mode. We achieve single-shot readout of an electron spin state in 3 nanoseconds with a fidelity of (95.2$\pm$0.7)%, and observe quantum jumps using repeated single-shot measurements. Owing to the speed of our readout, errors resulting from measurement-induced back-action have minimal impact. Our work reduces the spin readout-time to values well below both the achievable spin relaxation and dephasing times in semiconductor quantum dots, opening up new possibilities for their use in quantum technologies.

description: We develop an irregular lattice mass-spring-model (MSM) to simulate and study the deformation modes of a thin elastic ribbon as a function of applied end-to-end twist and tension. Our simulations reproduce all reported experimentally observed modes, including transitions from helicoids to longitudinal wrinkles, creased helicoids and loops with self-contact, and transverse wrinkles to accordion self-folds. Our simulations also show that the twist angles at which the primary longitudinal and transverse wrinkles appear are well described by various analyses of the Föppl-von Kármán (FvK) equations, but the characteristic wavelength of the longitudinal wrinkles has a more complex relationship to applied tension than previously estimated. The clamped edges are shown to suppress longitudinal wrinkling over a distance set by the applied tension and the ribbon width, but otherwise have no apparent effect on measured wavelength. Further, by analyzing the stress profile, we find that longitudinal wrinkling does not completely alleviate compression, but caps the magnitude of the compression. Nonetheless, the width over which wrinkles form is observed to be wider than the near-threshold analysis predictions -- the width is more consistent with the predictions of far-from-threshold analysis. However, the end-to-end contraction of the ribbon as a function of twist is found to more closely follow the corresponding near-threshold prediction as tension in the ribbon is increased, in contrast to the expectations of far-from-threshold analysis. These results point to the need for further theoretical analysis of this rich thin elastic system, guided by our physically robust and intuitive simulation model.

Coded Caching for Delay-Sensitive Content

description: Coded caching is a recently proposed technique that achieves significant performance gains for cache networks compared to uncoded caching schemes. However, this substantial coding gain is attained at the cost of large delivery delay, which is not tolerable in delay-sensitive applications such as video streaming. In this paper, we identify and investigate the tradeoff between the performance gain of coded caching and the delivery delay. We propose a computationally efficient caching algorithm that provides the gains of coding and respects delay constraints. The proposed algorithm achieves the optimum performance for large delay, but still offers major gains for small delay. These gains are demonstrated in a practical setting with a video-streaming prototype.

description: L’estime de soi est un concept du domaine de la psychologie, alors que l’erreur est un concept-clef des apprentissages. Ni l’un ni l’autre n’est enseigné en tant que tel. L’estime de soi a pourtant fait l’objet de nombreuses prises de position dans les ouvrages concernant l’éducation. Famose et Bertsch (2009) en ont même fait un de leurs titres : L’estime de soi, une controverse éducative. L’erreur, de son côté, est considérée différemment selon les modèles d’enseignement : quand il est transmissif, elle est une faute ; quand il est comportementaliste, elle est à éviter ; quand il est constructiviste, elle est un symptôme d'obstacle auquel la pensée de l’élève se trouve confrontée. Astolfi (1997) la considère comme un outil pour enseigner. Cette recherche vise à déterminer si des influences existent entre le traitement de l’erreur et l’estime de soi, et, si c’est le cas, à en comprendre le fonctionnement. La question qu’elle pose est la suivante : « Le traitement de l’erreur peut-il diminuer l’estime de soi de certains élèves ? ». C’est une démarche exploratoire, dont les résultats ne peuvent pas être généralisés. Elle se penche sur les représentations de l’erreur d’une classe de sixième, puis mesure l’estime de soi de deux élèves de manière récurrente, au début et à la fin de leçons au cours desquelles leurs erreurs sont traitées, afin de pouvoir déterminer la différence entre ces deux mesures. C’est cette différence qui est intéressante du point de vue de cette étude. L’analyse des résultats s’intéresse au genre des élèves (fille/garçon), qui contraste nettement les constats. Elle ouvre de nombreux prolongements possibles et provoque des questions complémentaires.

description: The planning, implementation and commissioning of industrial production plants is a complex endeavour which requires the collaboration of a variety of engineering disciplines (e.g. electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, etc.). Due to industry specific software requirements, highly specialized software is used in the involved branches. Thisresults in proprietary data formats without possibility of data exchange between different engineering disciplines. As this is a time consuming and error prone task with the risk of misinterpretation or lost data this issue was identified as reason for delayed projects.Therefore leading companies in the field of automation triggered the creation of AutomationML as a solution to the problem. It uses the hierarchical, neutral, XML based data format Computer Aided Engineering eXchange (CAEX) as its top-level format and adds additional restrictions and extensions.In order to ensure efficient and error-free data exchange, it must be ensured that the data conforms to the underlying data format. So far there has been no way for AutomationML models to validate their conformity with respect to restrictions and extensions invented by the AML specification.This thesis implements a validation framework for AutomationML models using tools from the field of model-based software development. The already existing validation regarding conformity to the CAEX data format is used as basis. In addition, the extensions and restrictions defined by the AML specification are formalized as part of theimplementation.The implemented validation framework examines AutomationML models in a structured process for conformity with regard to the AML specification and reports deviations. For evaluation purposes test models which deliberately deviate from the AutomationML specification were created. Based on these faulty models the correct detection of deviations is checked. In addition AML models conforming to the AutomationML were createdto ensure that correct models are recognized as such.

description: The Swiss labour market is highly structured and relies on standardised vocational education and training (VET) qualifications. Generally, a Federal VET diploma (three- or four-year apprenticeship) or a Federal VET certificate (two-year apprenticeship) is a basic requirement for taking up qualified work. Asylum migrants, and in particular refugees and temporarily admitted persons (RE/TA) without a recognised qualification, thus struggle to find employment, and even several years after their arrival, their employment rate is lower than those of Swiss citizens and other migrants (Aerne & Bonoli, 2021; Spadarotto et al., 2014). Including RE/TA, first, in vocational education and training is, therefore, a key strategy to accelerate their employability. However, the implementation of this strategy is challenging. Research consistently shows that adolescents and young adults with migration backgrounds and learners with special education needs struggle to transition to upper secondary education and stable jobs (Kammermann et al., 2011; Scharnhorst & Kammermann, 2020). Such difficulties in accessing vocational education and training are more pronounced for RE/TA, as they often do not fulfil the prerequisites for beginning an apprenticeship, such as the necessary language skills or sufficient knowledge of local culture, norms, and values (Barabasch et al., 2021; Schaffner et al., 2022). Moreover, many refugees and temporarily admitted persons come from countries with low-standing VET pathways. Hence, they are unaware of the importance and meaningfulness of VET as a successful way to employment (Billett et al., 2022). All these findings highlight the importance of pre-vocational measures to support RE/TA in finding access to initial VET programmes. The “pre-apprenticeship programme to support integration” PAI, examined in more detail in this chapter, is one of those measures.

description: High-power laser facilities give experimental access to fundamental strong-field quantum electrodynamics processes. A key effect to be explored is the nonlinear Breit-Wheeler process: the conversion of high-energy photons into electron-positron pairs through the interaction with a strong electromagnetic field. A major challenge to observing nonlinear Breit-Wheeler pair production experimentally is first having a suitable source of high-energy photons. In this paper we outline a simple all-optical setup which efficiently generates photons through the so-called $γ$-flash mechanism by irradiating a solid target with a high-power laser. We consider the collision of these photons with a secondary laser, and systematically discuss the prospects for exploring the nonlinear Breit-Wheeler process at current and next-generation high-power laser facilities.

description: Most phenomenological models of supersymmetry breaking rely on nonzero F-terms rather than nonzero D-terms. An important reason why D-terms are often neglected is that it turns out to be very challenging to realize D-terms at energies parametrically smaller than the Planck scale in supergravity. As we demonstrate in this paper, all conventional difficulties may, however, be overcome if the generation of the D-term is based on strong dynamics. To illustrate our idea, we focus on a certain class of vector-like SUSY breaking models that enjoy a minimal particle content and which may be easily embedded into more complete scenarios. We are then able to show that, upon gauging a global flavor symmetry, an appropriate choice of Yukawa couplings readily allows to dynamically generate a D-term at an almost arbitrary energy scale. This includes in particular the natural and consistent realization of D-terms around, above and below the scale of grand unification in supergravity, without the need for fine-tuning of any model parameters. Our construction might therefore bear the potential to open up a new direction for model building in supersymmetry and early universe cosmology.

description: Besides its fundamental interest, understanding the dynamics of pair breaking in superconducting nanostructures is a central issue to optimize the performances of superconducting devices such as qubits or photon detectors. However, despite substantial research efforts, these dynamics are still not well understood as this requires experiments in which quasiparticles are injected in a controlled fashion. Until now, such experiments have employed solid-state tunnel junctions with a fixed tunnel barrier. Here we use instead a cryogenic scanning tunnelling microscope to tune independently the energy and the rate of quasiparticle injection through, respectively, the bias voltage and the tunnelling current. For high energy quasiparticles, we observe the reduction of the critical current of a nanowire and show it is mainly controlled by the injected power and, marginally, by the injection rate. Our results prove a thermal mechanism for the reduction of the critical current and unveil the rapid dynamics of the generated hot spot.

The significance of the relationship, estimated by the slope of the linear regression, is indicated on each graph.;Results from the multigroup SEM analysis. Distance to potential partners can have a direct effect on the mating success and/or the reproductive success. It can also have an indirect effect on reproductive success, mediated by the relationship between mating and reproductive success (i.e. Bateman gradient). Estimates for each correlation are plotted with associated p-vales within brackets, with blue arrows for positive effects and orange arrows for negative effects. In the SEM analysis, two correlations differed between males and females (i.e. significant sex x variable interaction, p < 10-4). Sex specific statistics are indicated, with dotted arrows referring to females and solid arrows to males. The same statistics appear for the correlation between distance and reproductive success as no significant interaction was found in this case.

description: The notion of higher-order topological phases can have interesting generalizations to systems with subsystem symmetries that exhibit fractonic dynamics for charged excitations. In this work, we systematically study the higher-order topological phases protected by a combination of subsystem symmetries and ordinary global symmetries in two and three-dimensional interacting boson systems, with some interacting fermionic examples.

description: Mettre en pratique un conseil de classe durant quatre mois dans une classe multiâge de 3ème - 4ème H avec l’objectif d’expliciter les règles de vie de la classe aux élèves et de les élaborer avec ces derniers m’a permis de me faire une idée sur la manière d’utiliser cet outil. L’expérience m’a également servi à découvrir si le conseil pouvait faire évoluer les représentations des élèves concernant les règles de vie de la classe. L’enseignant peut imposer les règles aux élèves, les négocier avec eux ou utiliser, à la fois, la négociation et l’imposition. Je me suis dès lors demandé dans quelle mesure les règles pouvaient être élaborées et négociées avec la participation des élèves au lieu d’être imposées par l’adulte et ceci, dans le cadre d’un conseil de classe hebdomadaire. D’où ma question de recherche : Dans quelles mesures la pratique du conseil de classe peut-elle faire évoluer les représentations des élèves de 3ème H concernant les règles de vie de la classe ? Afin de répondre à cette question, je me suis basée sur quatre mois de pratique du conseil de classe pour parler des règles avec les élèves, sur un entretien (pré-test) conduit auprès des élèves avant de débuter les conseils et sur un deuxième (post-test) réalisé suite au dernier conseil. Mon analyse s’appuie sur trois concepts principaux : les règles de vie de la classe, le conseil de classe et les représentations des élèves. Pour finir, cette recherche m’a donné la possibilité de porter un regard critique sur ma pratique du conseil de classe. Un chapitre rend compte des difficultés et des biais que j’ai concrètement vécus, des points forts du conseil et des améliorations possibles. Si un professionnel de l’éducation est intéressé à instaurer un conseil de classe, il y trouvera quelques pistes d’action et de réflexion.

description: We discuss the electron antineutrino fluence derived from the events detected by Kamiokande-II, IMB and Baksan on February 23, 1987. The data are analysed adopting a new simple and accurate formula for the signal, improving on the previous modeling of the detectors response, considering the possibility of background events. We perform several alternative analyses to quantify the relevance of various descriptions, approximations and biases. In particular, we study the effect of: omitting Baksan data or neglecting the background, using simplified formulae for the signal, modifying the fluence to account for oscillations and pinching, including the measured times and angles of the events, using other descriptions of detector response, etc. We show that most of these effects are small or negligible and argue, by comparing the allowed regions for astrophysical parameters, that the results are stable. We comment on the accordance with theoretical results and on open questions.

description: It is possible to obtain the gravitational field equations in a large class of theories from a thermodynamic variational principle which uses the gravitational heat density $\mathcal{S}_g$ associated with null surfaces. This heat density is related to the discreteness of spacetime at Planck scale, $L_P^2 = (G\hbar / c^3)$, which assigns $A_{\perp}/L_P^2$ degrees of freedom to any area $A_{\perp}$. On the other hand, it is also known that the surface term $K\sqrt{h}$ in the gravitational action principle correctly reproduces the heat density of the null surfaces. We provide a link between these ideas by obtaining $\mathcal{S}_g$, used in emergent gravity paradigm, from the surface term in the action in Einstein's gravity. This is done using the notion of a nonlocal qmetric -- introduced recently [arXiv:1307.5618, arXiv:1405.4967] -- which allows us to study the effects of zero-point-length of spacetime at the transition scale between quantum and classical gravity. Computing $K\sqrt{h}$ for the qmetric in the appropriate limit directly reproduces the entropy density $\mathcal{S}_g$ used in the emergent gravity paradigm.

Triplet Pair-Density Wave Superconductivity on the $π$-flux Square Lattice

Year: 2022

description: Pair-density waves (PDW) are superconducting states that spontaneously break translation symmetry in systems with time-reversal symmetry (TRS). Evidence for PDW has been seen in several recent experiments, as well as in the pseudogap regime in cuprates. Theoretical understanding of PDW has been largely restricted to phenomenological and numerical studies, while microscopic theories typically require strong-coupling or fine-tuning. In this work, we provide a novel symmetry-based mechanism under which PDW emerges as a weak coupling instability of a 2D TRS metal. Combining mean-field and renormalization group analyses, we identify a weak-coupling instability towards a triplet PDW realized in the $π$-flux square lattice model with on-site repulsion and moderate nearest-neighbor attraction when the Fermi level crosses Van Hove singularities at 1/4 and 3/4 fillings. This PDW is protected by the magnetic translation symmetries characteristic of Hofstadter systems, of which the $π$-flux lattice is a special time-reversal symmetric case.

Quantum plateau of Andreev reflection induced by spin-orbit coupling

description: In this work we uncover an interesting quantum plateau behavior for the Andreev reflection between a one-dimensional quantum wire and superconductor. The quantum plateau is achieved by properly tuning the interplay of the spin-orbit coupling within the quantum wire and its tunnel coupling to the superconductor. This plateau behavior is justified to be unique by excluding possible existences in the cases associated with multi-channel quantum wire, the Blonder-Tinkham-Klapwijk continuous model with a barrier, and lattice system with on-site impurity at the interface.
