A hallmark of the phase diagrams of quantum materials is the existence of multiple electronic ordered states, which, in many cases, are not independent competing phases, but instead display a complex intertwinement. In this review, we focus on a particular realization of intertwined orders: a primary phase characterized by a multi-component order parameter and a fluctuation-driven vestigial phase characterized by a composite order parameter. This concept has been widely employed to elucidate nematicity in iron-based and cuprate superconductors. Here we present a group-theoretical framework that extends this notion to a variety of phases, providing a classification of vestigial orders of unconventional superconductors and density waves. Electronic states with scalar and vector chiral order, spin-nematic order, Ising-nematic order, time-reversal symmetry-breaking order, and algebraic vestigial order emerge from one underlying principle. The formalism provides a framework to understand the complexity of quantum materials based on symmetry, largely without resorting to microscopic models.

Excess energy–volume and cohesive energy density coefficients have been calculated for the hexane + perfluoro-hexane, water + DMSO, water + tert-butanol, water + methanol, water + acetonitrile, and methanol + DMSO Systems. These parameters are compared with other constant pressure excess functions of mixing for these binary systems, and it is proposed that they represent additional criteria for the classification of liquid mixtures.

Exploiting Landau’s theory of phase transformations, defining an original order parameter and using the phenomenological transformation temperatures, it is reported that it is possible to describe in a global approach the conditions for the formation of each constituent (ferrite, bainite, martensite) from austenite during cooling in steel. It allowed to propose a new rigorous classification of the different thermodynamic conditions controlling each phase transformation. In a second step, the approach predicts naturally the effect of cooling rate on the bainite start temperature. Finally, perspectives are assessed to extend the approach in order to take into account the effect of an external field such as applied stress.

The Eighth Eugene Feenberg Medal is awarded to Philippe Nozières in recognition of his many pathbreaking contributions to many-body theory, including • His definitive work on the properties of the free electron gas, in particular in the region of realistic metallic densities, • his rigorous development of the theory of a normal Fermi liquid, which provided a firm microscopic foundation for the Landau theory, • his analysis of the nonequilibrium thermodynamics of 3-He solid-liquid mixtures, • his exact solution to the X-ray edge problem, • his elegant formulation of the low-temperature solution to the single-channel Kondo problem in the language of Fermi-liquid theory, • his introduction of the many-channel problem as a new class of quantum impurity systems, and • his innovative work on the static and dynamic behavior of the liquid-solid interface.

We design and analyze the dynamics of a large network of theta neurons, which are idealized type I neurons. The network is heterogeneous in that it includes both inherently spiking and excitable neurons. The coupling is global, via pulselike synapses of adjustable sharpness. Using recently developed analytical methods, we identify all possible asymptotic states that can be exhibited by a mean field variable that captures the network's macroscopic state. These consist of two equilibrium states that reflect partial synchronization in the network and a limit cycle state in which the degree of network synchronization oscillates in time. Our approach also permits a complete bifurcation analysis, which we carry out with respect to parameters that capture the degree of excitability of the neurons, the heterogeneity in the population, and the coupling strength (which can be excitatory or inhibitory). We find that the network typically tends toward the two macroscopic equilibrium states when the neuron's intrinsic dynamics and the network interactions reinforce one another. In contrast, the limit cycle state, bifurcations, and multistability tend to occur when there is competition among these network features. Finally, we show that our results are exhibited by finite network realizations of reasonable size.
