  text: The many-body localization transition (MBLT) between ergodic and many-body
    localized phases in disordered interacting systems is a subject of much recent
    interest. The statistics of eigenenergies is known to be a powerful probe of crossovers
    between ergodic and integrable systems in simpler examples of quantum chaos. We
    consider the evolution of the spectral statistics across the MBLT, starting with
    mapping to a Brownian motion process that analytically relates the spectral properties
    to the statistics of matrix elements. We demonstrate that the flow from Wigner-Dyson
    to Poisson statistics is a two-stage process. First, a fractal enhancement of
    matrix elements upon approaching the MBLT from the delocalized side produces an
    effective power-law interaction between energy levels, and leads to a plasma model
    for level statistics. At the second stage, the gas of eigenvalues has local interactions
    and the level statistics belongs to a semi-Poisson universality class. We verify
    our findings numerically on the XXZ spin chain. We provide a microscopic understanding
    of the level statistics across the MBLT and discuss implications for the transition
    that are strong constraints on possible theories.

  text: In contrast to bulk FeSe, which exhibits nematic order and low temperature
    superconductivity, highly doped FeSe reverses the situation, having high temperature
    superconductivity appearing alongside a suppression of nematic order. To investigate
    this phenomenon, we study a minimal electronic model of FeSe, with interactions
    that enhance nematic fluctuations. This model is sign problem free, and is simulated
    using determinant quantum Monte Carlo (DQMC). We developed a DQMC algorithm with
    parallel tempering, which proves to be an efficient source of global updates and
    allows us to access the region of strong interactions. Over a wide range of intermediate
    couplings, we observe superconductivity with an extended s-wave order parameter,
    along with enhanced, but short-ranged, q=(0,0) ferro-orbital (nematic) order.
    These results are consistent with approximate weak-coupling treatments that predict
    that nematic fluctuations lead to superconducting pairing. Surprisingly, in the
    parameter range under study, we do not observe nematic long-range order. Instead,
    at stronger coupling an unusual insulating phase with q=(π,π) antiferro-orbital
    order appears, which is missed by weak-coupling approximations.

  text: The effects of substrate temperature, growth rate, and postgrowth annealing
    on the composition of Ge islands grown on Si(001) were investigated with a combination
    of selective wet chemical etching and atomic force microscopy. A simple kinetic
    model comprising only surface diffusion processes can explain all the experimentally
    observed compositional profiles for pyramid and dome islands grown in the 560-620°C
    range. From this model three-dimensional compositional maps were extracted. By
    performing annealing experiments a change in the composition of the domes was
    observed. This could be explained as the result of the islands' movement induced
    by alloying-driven energy minimization. Also in this case kinetically hindered
    bulk diffusion processes are not needed to explain the experimental observations.
