Fast Algorithms For Josephson Junction Arrays : Bus--bars and Defects
We critically review the fast algorithms for the numerical study of two--dimensional Josephson junction arrays and develop the analogy of such systems with electrostatics. We extend these procedures to arrays with bus--bars and defects in the form of missing bonds. The role of boundaries and of the guage choice in dete...

Effect of Random Impurities on Fluctuation-Driven First Order Transitions
We analyse the effect of quenched uncorrelated randomness coupling to the local energy density of a model consisting of N coupled two-dimensional Ising models. For N>2 the pure model exhibits a fluctuation-driven first order transition, characterised by runaway renormalisation group behaviour. We show that the addition...

Spin density wave selection in the one-dimensional Hubbard model
The Hartree-Fock ground state phase diagram of the one-dimensional Hubbard model is calculated, constrained to uniform phases, which have no charge density modulation.

Kac-Moody Symmetries of Critical Ground States

Oscillating density of states near zero energy for matrices made of blocks with possible application to the random flux problem
We consider random hermitian matrices made of complex blocks. The symmetries of these matrices force them to have pairs of opposite real eigenvalues, so that the average density of eigenvalues must vanish at the origin. These densities are studied for finite $N\times N$ matrices in the Gaussian ensemble. In the large $...

Absence of zero field muon spin relaxation induced by superconductivity in the B phase of UPt$_3$
We present muon spin relaxation measurements performed on crystals of the heavy fermion superconductor UPt$_3$. In zero applied field, contrary to a previous report, we do not observe an increase of the internal magnetic field in the lower superconducting phase (the B phase). Our result gives an experimental upper boun...

Phase ordering kinetics of the Bose gas
We study the approach to equilibrium of a Bose gas to a superfluid state. We point out that dynamic scaling, characteristic of far from equilibrium phase-ordering systems, should hold.
