After more than a century of concerted effort, physics still lacks basic principles of
spontaneous self-organization. To appreciate why, we first state the problem, outline …

The development of smart polymer materials is reviewed and illustrated. Important examples
of these polymers include conducting polymers, ionic gels, stimulus-response be used …

Geometric fluctuations of the density mode in a fractional quantum Hall (FQH) state can give
rise to a nematic FQH phase, a topological state with a spontaneously broken rotational …

We consider the driven dynamics of Wigner crystals interacting with random disorder. Using
numerical simulations, we find a rich variety of transport phenomena as a function of charge …

Due to its extremely rich phase diagram, the two-dimensional electron gas exposed to
perpendicular magnetic fields has been the subject of intense and sustained study. One …

Dynamic interplay between extracellular matrix with anisotropic structure and biological cells
has directed the scaffold path of development toward the utilization of actuation-responsive …

Incompressibility plays a key role in the geometric description of fractional quantum Hall
fluids. It is naturally related to quantum area-preserving diffeomorphisms and the underlying …

In spite of its ubiquity in strongly correlated systems, the competition of paired and nematic
ground states remains poorly understood. Recently such a competition was reported in the …

The fractional quantum Hall state (FQHS) observed at a half-filled Landau level in an
interacting two-dimensional electron system (2DES) is among the most exotic states of …
