Using both a resonant level model and the time-dependent Gutzwiller approximation, we study the power dissipation of a localized impurity hybridized with a conduction band when the hybridization is periodically switched on and off. The total dissipated energy is proportional to the Kondo temperature, with a non-trivial frequency dependence. At low frequencies it can be well approximated by the one of a single quench, and is obtainable analitically; at intermediate frequencies it undergoes oscillations; at high frequencies, after reaching its maximum, it quickly drops to zero. This frequency-dependent energy dissipation could be relevant to systems such as irradiated quantum dots, where Kondo can be switched at very high frequencies.

The onset or demise of Kondo effect in a magnetic impurity on a metal surface can be triggered, as often observed, by the simple mechanical nudging of a tip. This mechanically-driven quantum phase transition must reflect in a corresponding mechanical dissipation peak; yet, this kind of effect has not been focused upon so far. Aiming at the simplest theoretical modeling, we initially treat the impurity as a non-interacting resonant level turned cyclically on and off, and obtain a dissipation per cycle which is proportional to the hybridization $Gamma$, with a characteristic temperature dependent resonant peak value. A better treatment is obtained next by solving an Anderson impurity model by numerical renormalization group. Here, many body effects yield a dissipation whose peak value is now proportional to $T_K |log T|$ so long as $Tsim T_K$, followed for $Tsim Gamma$ by a second high temperature regime where dissipation is proportional to $Gamma|log T|$. The detectability of Kondo mechanical dissipation in atomic force microscopy is discussed.
We consider Dirac electrons on the honeycomb lattice Kondo coupled to spin-1/2 degrees of freedom on the kagome lattice. The interactions between the spins are chosen along the lines of the Balents-Fisher-Girvin model that is known to host a $mathbb{ Z}_2$ spin liquid and a ferromagnetic phase. The model is amenable to sign free auxiliary field quantum Monte Carlo simulations. While in the ferromagnetic phase the Dirac electrons acquire a gap, they remain massless in the $mathbb{Z}_2$ spin liquid phase due to the breakdown of Kondo screening. Since our model has an odd number of spins per unit cell, this phase is a non-Fermi liquid that violates the conventional Luttinger theorem which relates the Fermi surface volume to the particle density in a Fermi liquid. This non-Fermi liquid is a specific realization of the so called fractionalized Fermi liquid proposed in the context of heavy fermions. We probe the Kondo breakdown in this non-Fermi liquid phase via conventional observables such as the spectral function, and also by studying the mutual information between the electrons and the spins.
Strong-coupling expansions, to order $(t/J)^8$, are derived for the Kondo lattice model of strongly correlated electrons, in 1-, 2- and 3- dimensions at arbitrary temperature. Results are presented for the specific heat, and spin and charge susceptibilities.
Anomalous metallic properties are often observed in the proximity of quantum critical points (QCPs), with violation of the Fermi Liquid paradigm. We propose a scenario where, due to the presence of a nearby QCP, dynamical fluctuations of the order pa rameter with finite correlation length mediate a nearly isotropic scattering among the quasiparticles over the entire Fermi surface. This scattering produces an anomalous metallic behavior, which is extended to the lowest temperatures by an increase of the damping of the fluctuations. We phenomenologically identify one single parameter ruling this increasing damping when the temperature decreases, accounting for both the linear-in-temperature resistivity and the seemingly divergent specific heat observed, e.g., in high-temperature superconducting cuprates and some heavy-fermion metals.
We report the anisotropic changes in the electronic structure of a Kondo semiconductor CeOs$_2$Al$_{10}$ across an anomalous antiferromagnetic ordering temperature ($T_0$) of 29 K, using optical conductivity spectra. The spectra along the $a$- and $c $-axes indicate that a $c$-$f$ hybridization gap emerges from a higher temperature continuously across $T_0$. Along the b-axis, on the other hand, a different energy gap with a peak at 20 meV appears below 39 K, which is higher temperature than $T_0$, because of structural distortion. The onset of the energy gap becomes visible below $T_0$. Our observation reveals that the electronic structure as well as the energy gap opening along the b-axis due to the structural distortion induces antiferromagnetic ordering below $T_0$.
