Boundary conditions for metric fluctuations in Lifshitz (2013)
Journal Article
Andrade, T., & Ross, S. F. (2013). Boundary conditions for metric fluctuations in Lifshitz. Classical and Quantum Gravity, 30(19), Article 195017. https://doi.org/10.1088/0264-9381/30/19/195017

We consider the quantization of linearized fluctuations of the metric and matter fields about a Lifshitz background, exploring the possibility of alternative boundary conditions, allowing the slow fall-off modes to fluctuate. We find that for z > 2,... Read More about Boundary conditions for metric fluctuations in Lifshitz.

A strongly-coupled zig-zag transition (2013)
Journal Article
Balasubramanian, V., Berkooz, M., Ross, S. F., & Simon, J. (2013). A strongly-coupled zig-zag transition. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2013(9), Article 66. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep09%282013%29066

The zig-zag symmetry transition is a phase transition in 1D quantum wires, in which a Wigner lattice of electrons transitions to two staggered lattices. Previous studies model this transition as a Luttinger liquid coupled to a Majorana fermion. The m... Read More about A strongly-coupled zig-zag transition.

Boundary conditions for scalars in Lifshitz (2013)
Journal Article
Andrade, T., & Ross, S. F. (2013). Boundary conditions for scalars in Lifshitz. Classical and Quantum Gravity, 30(6), Article 065009. https://doi.org/10.1088/0264-9381/30/6/065009

We consider the quantization of scalar fields on a Lifshitz background, exploring the possibility of alternative boundary conditions, allowing the slow falloff mode to fluctuate. We show that the scalar field with alternative boundary conditions is n... Read More about Boundary conditions for scalars in Lifshitz.
