• Anomaly-Induced Inhomogeneous Phase in Quark Matter without the Sign Problem 

      Brauner, Tomas; Filios, Georgios; Kolesova, Helena (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      We demonstrate the existence of an anomaly-induced inhomogeneous phase in a class of vectorlike gauge theories without the sign problem, thus disproving the long-standing conjecture that the absence of the sign problem ...
    • Chiral soliton lattice in QCD-like theories 

      Brauner, Tomas; Filios, Georgios; Kolesova, Helena (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      Recently, it has been shown that the ground state of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) in suffciently strong magnetic fields and at moderate baryon number chemical potential carries a crystalline condensate of neutral pions: ...
    • Spontaneous momentum dissipation and coexistence of phases in holographic Horndeski theory 

      Filios, Georgios; Gonzalez, P. A.; Kuang, Xiao-Mei; Papantonopoulos, Eleftherios; Vasquez, Yerko (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      We discuss the possible phases dual to the AdS hairy black holes in Horndeski theory. In the probe limit breaking the translational invariance, we study the conductivity and we find a nontrivial structure indicating a ...
