1 Mattis, Daniel C.Exact solution of a many-fermion system and its associated boson fieldLuttinger's exactly soluble model of a one-dimensional many-fermion system is discussed. We show that he did not solve his model properly because of the paradoxical fact that the density operator commutators [p(p), p(-p')], which always vanish for any finite number of particles, no longer vanish in ...Many-electron problem; Fermi surface; Boson field; Dirac sea1965
2 Golden, Kenneth M.Convexity in random resistor networksThe bulk conductivity o*(p) of the bond lattice in Zd is considered, where the conductivity of the bonds is either 1 with probability p or e > 0 with probability 1 - p. Rigorous and non-rigorous results demonstrating convexity of o*(p) near the percolation threshold pc are presented.Conductivity; Bond lattice; Critical exponent t1989
3 Mattis, Daniel C.New wave-operator identity applied to the study of persistent currents in 1DWe show that a large class of backward-scattering matrix elements involving Δk ~ + 2k F vanish for fermions interacting with two-body attractive forces in one dimension. (These same matrix elements are finite for noninteracting particles and infinite for particles interacting with two-body repulsiv...Persistent current; Supercurrents1974
4 Golden, Kenneth M.The lsing model and critical behavior of transport in binary composite mediaWe present a general theory for critical behavior of transport in binary composite media. The theory holds for lattice and continuum percolation models in both the static case with real parameters and the quasi-static case (frequency dependent) with complex parameters. Through a direct, analytic cor...2012-01-01
5 Golden, Kenneth M.Statistical mechanics of conducting phase transitionsThe critical behavior of the effective conductivity o* of the random resistor network in Zd, near its percolation threshold, is considered. The network has bonds assigned the conductivities 1 and E >_0 in the volume fractions p and 1 -p. Motivated by the statistical mechanics of an Ising ferromagn...Resistor; Ising; Ferromagnet1995
6 Golden, Kenneth M.Exact result for the effective conductivity of a continuum percolation modelA random two-dimensional checkerboard of squares of conductivities 1 and 8 in proportions p and 1 - p is considered. Classical duality implies that the effective conductivity obeys o* = V8 at p = 1/2. It is rigorously found here that to leading order as 8--0, this exact result holds for all p in the...Particles; Matrix; Checkerboard1994
7 Golden, Kenneth M.Convexity and exponent inequalities for conduction near percolationThe bulk conductivity o*(p) of the bond lattice in Zd with a fraction p of conducting bonds is analyzed. Assuming a hierarchical node-link-blob (NLB) model of the conducting backbone, it is shown that o*(p) (for this model) is convex in p near the percolation threshold pc, and that its critical expo...Lattice; Conductivity; Model1990
8 Mattis, Daniel C.Conductivity of one-dimensional interacting fermions*Using an exactly soluble model, the decay rate of a current-carrying state of one-dimensional fermions is calculated in the presence of random scatterers at finite temperature and the dc conductivity thereby inferred. For interacting fermions it is modified by a factor (T/T + θ)g, where g is a posi...Fermi gas1974-04
9 Mattis, Daniel C.Steady-state distribution function in dilute electron gasesIt is usually assumed that optically created carriers in a photoconductor rapidly thermalize to a Boltzmann distribution, regardless of the generation and recombination mechanisms. However, it can be shown that this distribution which is characteristic of thermodynamic equilibrium is incompatible w...Photoconductors; Thermal scattering; Steady state; Cyclotron resonance1960-10

12 Mishchenko, EugeneEffect of electron-electron interactions on the conductivity of clean grapheneMinimal conductivity of a single undoped graphene layer is known to be of the order of the conductance quantum, independent of the electron velocity. We show that this universality does not survive electron-electron interaction, which results in nontrivial frequency dependence. We begin with analyzi...Optical conductivity; Perturbation theory2007-05
13 Mishchenko, EugeneThermal conductivity of a two-dimensional electron gas with Coulomb interactionWe demonstrate that forward electron-electron scattering due to Coulomb interaction in a two-dimensional ballistic electron-gas leads to the (T ln T)21 temperature dependence of the thermal conductivity, which is logarithmically suppressed compared to the usual Fermi-liquid behavior.Coulomb drag; Coulomb interaction2003-01
14 Carter, Tony M.; Smith, Kent F.Cell matrix methodologies for integrated circuit designA class of integrated circuit design and implementation methodologies is described. These techniques are unique in that they simultaneously model both function and interconnect using cells. These cells are designed such that cell adjacency normally implies interconnection. The absence of an interco...Integrated circuit design; Cell matrix1989
15 Mattis, Daniel C.Tricritical point in random-field Ising modelThe numerical investigation of the random-field Ising model by Houghton, Khurana, and Seco1 has revealed a number of interesting features concerning the three-dimensional Ising model in a random external field Bt. Earlier, Aharony2 had already found that even in a mean-field approximation the b...Random external field; Tricritical points; Gaussian distribution1985
