Adding a second Kondo channel to heavy fermion materials reveals new exotic symmetry breaking phases associated with the development of Kondo coherence. In this paper, we review two such phases, the hastatic order associated with non-Kramers doublet ground states, where the two-channel nature of the Kondo coupling is guaranteed by virtual valence fluctuations to an excited Kramers doublet, and composite pair superconductivity, where the two channels differ by charge 2e and can be thought of as virtual valence fluctuations to a pseudo-isospin doublet. The similarities and differences between these two orders will be discussed, along with possible realizations in actinide and rare earth materials like URu2Si2 and NpPd5Al2.

We address the origin of the magnetic-field independent -|A| T^{1/2} term observed in the low-temperature resistivity of several As-based metallic systems of the PbFCl structure type. For the layered compound ZrAs_{1.58}Se_{0.39}, we show that vacanc
ies in the square nets of As give rise to the low-temperature transport anomaly over a wide temperature regime of almost two decades in temperature. This low-temperature behavior is in line with the non-magnetic version of the two-channel Kondo effect, whose origin we ascribe to a dynamic Jahn-Teller effect operating at the vacancy-carrying As layer with a C_4 symmetry. The pair-breaking nature of the dynamical defects in the square nets of As explains the low superconducting transition temperature T_{rm{c}}approx 0.14 K of ZrAs_{1.58}Se_{0.39}, as compared to the free-of-vacancies homologue ZrP_{1.54}S_{0.46} (T_{rm{c}}approx 3.7 K). Our findings should be relevant to a wide class of metals with disordered pnictogen layers.
For a mobile spin-1/2 impurity, coupled antiferromagnetically to a one-dimensional gas of fermions, perturbative ideas have been used to argue in favor of two-channel Kondo behavior of the impurity spin. Here we combine general considerations and ext
ensive numerical simulations to show that the problem displays a novel quantum phase transition between two-channel and one-channel Kondo screening upon increasing the Kondo coupling. We construct a ground-state phase diagram and discuss the various non-trivial crossovers as well as possible experimental realizations.
To resolve the nature of the hidden order below 17.5,K in the heavy fermion compound URu$_2$Si$_2$, identifying which symmetries are broken below the hidden order transition is one of the most important steps. Several recent experiments on the electr
onic structure have shown that the Fermi surface in the hidden order phase is quite close to the result of band-structure calculations within the framework of itinerant electron picture assuming the antiferromagnetism. This provides strong evidence for the band folding along the c-axis with the ordering vector of $(0,0,1)$, corresponding to broken translational symmetry. In addition to this, there is growing evidence for fourfold rotational symmetry breaking in the hidden-order phase from measurements of the in-plane magnetic anisotropy and the effective mass anisotropy in the electronic structure, as well as the orthorhombic lattice distortion. This broken fourfold symmetry gives a stringent constraint that the symmetry of the hidden order parameter should belong to the degenerate $E$-type irreducible representation. We also discuss a possibility that time reversal symmetry is also broken, which further narrows down the order parameter that characterizes the hidden order.
We study an impurity Anderson model to describe an iron phthalocyanine (FePc) molecule on Au(111), motivated by previous results of scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS) and theoretical studies. The model hybridizes a spin doublet consisting in one h
ole at the $3d_{z^2}$ orbital of iron and two degenerate doublets corresponding to one hole either in the $3d_{xz}$ or in the $3d_{yz}$ orbital (called $pi$ orbitals) with two degenerate Hund-rule triplets with one hole in the $3d_{z}$ orbital and another one in a $pi$ orbital. We solve the model using a slave-boson mean-field approximation (SBMFA). For reasonable parameters we can describe very well the observed STS spectrum between sample bias -60 mV to 20 mV. For these parameters the Kondo stage takes place in two stages, with different energy scales $T_K^z > T_K^pi$ corresponding to the Kondo temperatures related with the hopping of the $z^2$ and $pi$ orbitals respectively. There is a strong interference between the different channels and the Kondo temperatures, particularly the lowest one is strongly reduced compared with the value in the absence of the competing channel.
We design a set of classical macroscopic electric circuits in which charge exhibits the mobility restrictions of fracton quasiparticles. The crucial ingredient in these circuits is a transformer, which induces currents between pairs of adjacent wires
. For an appropriately designed geometry, this induction serves to enforce conservation of dipole moment. We show that a network of capacitors connected via ideal transformers will forever remember the dipole moment of its initial charge configuration. Relaxation of the dipole moment in realistic systems can only occur via flux leakage in the transformers, which will lead to violations of fracton physics at the longest times. We propose a concrete diagnostic for these fractolectric circuits in the form of their characteristic equilibrium charge configurations, which we verify using simple circuit simulation software. These circuits not only provide an experimental testing ground for fracton physics, but also serve as DC filters. We outline extensions of these ideas to circuits featuring other types of higher moment conservation laws, as well as to higher-dimensional circuits which act as fracton current-ice. While our focus is on classical circuits, we discuss how these ideas can be straightforwardly extended to realize quantized fractons in superconducting circuits.
