The authors present here results from electrical magnetotransport measurements on microstructures of altermagnetic CrSb in pulsed fields up to 68 T. They study the temperature and field-orientation dependence of magnetic quantum oscillations in combination with first-principles calculations. The observed frequency spectrum agrees well with density functional theory calculations that take spin-orbit coupling into account, without invoking significant band shifts. The findings validate the predicted electronic band structure of CrSb hosting multiple semimetallic bands and a locally alternating spin polarization.

The authors analyze here the competition and coexistence of magnetic, charge, and -wave superconducting orders in the two-dimensional Hubbard model using renormalization-group-improved Hartree–Fock calculations. The resulting phase diagram reveals superconductivity coexisting with Néel order on the electron-doped side and with spiral or stripe order on the hole-doped side. In the stripe phase, the superconducting gap is spatially modulated together with the charge order.

Phys. Rev. B 114, 185110 (2026) - Published 8 September, 2026
Here, the authors revisit the question of the logarithmic renormalization of the Fermi velocity in graphene. Using large-scale Quantum Monte Carlo simulations of lattices with up to interacting electrons, they directly connect experimental data with unbiased, nonperturbative calculations starting from a microscopic Hamiltonian. Their results reveal that even random-phase approximation corrections are quantitatively insufficient at realistic interaction strengths for suspended graphene, while continuum perturbation theory misses important lattice-scale effects. Remarkably, the optical conductivity still remains constant pointing to exact cancellation of different corrections.

Quadrupolar and dipolar phases of excitons in transition-metal dichalcogenide trilayer heterostructures

In trilayer transition metal dichalcogenides, strong quantum fluctuations stabilize quadrupolar excitons. This study reveals how this state breaks down due to strong correlations at high exciton densities. Attractive interactions drive antiparallel dipolar correlations, explaining the redshift to blueshift transition observed in recent experiments. Furthermore, the authors predict novel correlation driven quantum phases, specifically an exciton droplet and a staggered dipolar crystal, and detail their distinct experimental signatures to guide future experimental explorations.

We usually understand a critical point as occurring at a phase transition separating two distinct phases. Certain quantum many-body systems host unusual critical points that are entirely contained in a single phase of matter but are nonetheless protected for topological reasons. Here, the authors give general conditions when such “diabolical” critical points should exist and explore new types of classical phase transitions in which they might occur.

Breakdown of the Migdal-Eliashberg theory for electron-phonon systems: Role of polarons and bipolarons

Phys. Rev. B 114, 185127 (2026) - Published 23 September, 2026
The Migdal-Eliashberg theory (MET) describes electrons interacting with phonons at weak/moderate couplings. A conventional belief is that MET holds even at strong coupling, and, for an interaction with an optical phonon, breaks down only near the point where the dressed phonon softens. Here, the authors analyze numerically and analytically a different option — a collapse to a polaronic/bipolaronic ground state. They show in detail how this happens and demonstrate that away from near-half-filling, a polaron/bipolaron state develops well before a dressed phonon softens.

The correlated phase diagram of magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene (MATBG) is very sensitive to both material parameters and modeling choices. To limit the impact of these factors, here, the authors propose an embedding workflow for modeling MATBG and other moiré materials that incorporates automatic gauge fixing and is consistent with density functional theory. Using this workflow, the authors find that in MATBG, the Hartree-Fock ground state at is a fragile semimetal with intervalley coherence.

Isovalent 1% Ti substitution tunes the polar metal CaRuO to the edge of its Mott transition. While electronic kinetic energy and strong electron-lattice coupling contribute to the system’s free-energy balance, its magnetic - phase diagram is remarkably simple, closely resembling that of a canonical anisotropic antiferromagnet, albeit with substantially renormalized critical fields. Along the easy axis, a first-order spin-flop transition near 6 Tesla reorients the Ru moments while the system remains insulating; a forced-ferromagnetic metal emerges above 10.5 Tesla field.
