Coherent Magnetotransport Through an Artificial Molecule

The conductance in an extended multiband Hubbard model describing linear arrays of up to ten quantum dots is calculated via a Lanczos technique. A pronounced suppression of certain resonant conductance peaks in an applied magnetic field due to a density-dependent spin-polarization transition is predicted to be a clear signature of a coherent ``molecular'' wavefunction in the array. A many-body enhancement of localization is predicted to give rise to a {\em giant magnetoconductance} effect in systems with magnetic scattering.Comment: 4 pages, REVTEX 3.0, 5 figures included as postscript file

Density Matrix Renormalization Group Study of Incompressible Fractional Quantum Hall States

We develop the Density Matrix Renormalization Group (DMRG) technique for numerically studying incompressible fractional quantum Hall (FQH) states on the sphere. We calculate accurate estimates for ground state energies and excitationgaps at FQH filling fractions \nu=1/3 and \nu=5/2 for systems that are almost twice as large as the largest ever studied by exact diagonalization. We establish, by carefully comparing with existing numerical results on smaller systems, that DMRG is a highly effective numerical tool for studying incompressible FQH states.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figure

Estimates of electronic interaction parameters for LaMMO3_3 compounds (MM=Ti-Ni) from ab-initio approaches

We have analyzed the ab-initio local density approximation band structure calculations for the family of perovskite oxides, La$M$O$_3$ with $M$=Ti-Ni within a parametrized nearest neighbor tight-binding model and extracted various interaction strengths. We study the systematics in these interaction parameters across the transition metal series and discuss the relevance of these in a many-body description of these oxides. The results obtained here compare well with estimates of these parameters obtained via analysis of electron spectroscopic results in conjunction with the Anderson impurity model. The dependence of the hopping interaction strength, t, is found to be approximately $r^{-3}$.Comment: 18 pages; 1 tex file+9 postscript files (appeared in Phys Rev B Oct 15,1996

Phase diagram of asymmetric Fermi gas across Feshbach resonance

We study the phase diagram of the dilute two-component Fermi gas at zero temperature as a function of the polarization and coupling strength. We map out the detailed phase separations between superfluid and normal states near the Feshbach resonance. We show that there are three different coexistence of superfluid and normal phases corresponding to phase separated states between: (I) the partially polarized superfluid and the fully polarized normal phases, (II) the unpolarized superfluid and the fully polarized normal phases and (III) the unpolarized superfluid and the partially polarized normal phases from strong-coupling BEC side to weak-coupling BCS side. For pairing between two species, we found this phase separation regime gets wider and moves toward the BEC side for the majority species are heavier but shifts to BCS side and becomes narrow if they are lighter.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures.

Dissipationless transport in low density bilayer systems

In a bilayer electronic system the layer index may be viewed as the z-component of an isospin-1/2. An XY isospin-ordered ferromagnetic phase was observed in quantum Hall systems and is predicted to exist at zero magnetic field at low density. This phase is a superfluid for opposite currents in the two layers. At B=0 the system is gapless but superfluidity is not destroyed by weak disorder. In the quantum Hall case, weak disorder generates a random gauge field which probably does not destroy superfluidity. Experimental signatures include Coulomb drag and collective mode measurements.Comment: 4 pages, no figures, submitted to Phys. Rev. Let

Dynamic Magneto-Conductance Fluctuations and Oscillations in Mesoscopic Wires and Rings

Using a finite-frequency recursive Green's function technique, we calculate the dynamic magneto-conductance fluctuations and oscillations in disordered mesoscopic normal metal systems, incorporating inter-particle Coulomb interactions within a self-consistent potential method. In a disordered metal wire, we observe ergodic behavior in the dynamic conductance fluctuations. At low $\omega$, the real part of the conductance fluctuations is essentially given by the dc universal conductance fluctuations while the imaginary part increases linearly from zero, but for $\omega$ greater than the Thouless energy and temperature, the fluctuations decrease as $\omega^{-1/2}$. Similar frequency-dependent behavior is found for the Aharonov-Bohm oscillations in a metal ring. However, the Al'tshuler-Aronov-Spivak oscillations, which predominate at high temperatures or in rings with many channels, are strongly suppressed at high frequencies, leading to interesting crossover effects in the $\omega$-dependence of the magneto-conductance oscillations.Comment: 4 pages, REVTeX 3.0, 5 figures(ps file available upon request), #phd0

Smoothed Analysis of Dynamic Networks

We generalize the technique of smoothed analysis to distributed algorithms in dynamic network models. Whereas standard smoothed analysis studies the impact of small random perturbations of input values on algorithm performance metrics, dynamic graph smoothed analysis studies the impact of random perturbations of the underlying changing network graph topologies. Similar to the original application of smoothed analysis, our goal is to study whether known strong lower bounds in dynamic network models are robust or fragile: do they withstand small (random) perturbations, or do such deviations push the graphs far enough from a precise pathological instance to enable much better performance? Fragile lower bounds are likely not relevant for real-world deployment, while robust lower bounds represent a true difficulty caused by dynamic behavior. We apply this technique to three standard dynamic network problems with known strong worst-case lower bounds: random walks, flooding, and aggregation. We prove that these bounds provide a spectrum of robustness when subjected to smoothing---some are extremely fragile (random walks), some are moderately fragile / robust (flooding), and some are extremely robust (aggregation).Comment: 20 page
