We investigate a well studied system of a quantum dot coupled to a Coulomb box and leads, realizing a spin-flavor Kondo model. It exhibits a recently discovered non-Fermi liquid (NFL) behavior with emergent SO(5) symmetry. Here, through a detailed bosonization and refermionization solution, we push forward our previous work and provide a consistent and complete description of the various exotic properties and phase diagram. A unique NFL phase emerges from the presence of an uncoupled Majorana fermion from the flavor sector, whereas FL-like susceptibilities result from the gapping out of a pair of Majroana fermions from the spin and flavor sectors. Other properties, such as a $T^{3/2}$ scaling of the conductance, stability under channel or spin symmetry breaking and a re-appearance of NFL behavior upon breaking the particle-hole symmetry, are all accounted for by a renormalization group treatment of the refermionized Majorana model.

Non-Fermi liquid (NFL) physics can be realized in quantum dot devices where competing interactions frustrate the exact screening of dot spin or charge degrees of freedom. We show that a standard nanodevice architecture, involving a dot coupled to bot
h a quantum box and metallic leads, can host an exotic SO(5) symmetry Kondo effect, with entangled dot and box charge and spin. This NFL state is surprisingly robust to breaking channel and spin symmetry, but destabilized by particle-hole asymmetry. By tuning gate voltages, the SO(5) state evolves continuously to a spin and then flavor two-channel Kondo state. The expected experimental conductance signatures are highlighted.
The Kondo-Spin Glass competition is studied in a theoretical model of a Kondo lattice with an intra-site Kondo type exchange interaction treated within the mean field approximation, an inter-site quantum Ising exchange interaction with random couplin
gs among localized spins and an additional transverse field in the x direction, which represents a simple quantum mechanism of spin flipping. We obtain two second order transition lines from the spin-glass state to the paramagnetic one and then to the Kondo state. For a reasonable set of the different parameters, the two second order transition lines do not intersect and end in two distinct QCP.
A spin-orbit coupled quantum wire, with one end proximate to an s-wave superconductor, can become a topological superconductor, with a Majorana mode localized at each end of the superconducting region. It was recently shown that coupling one end of s
uch a topological superconductor to $two$ normal channels of interacting electrons leads to a novel type of frustration and a quantum critical point when both channels couple with equal strength. We propose an experimental method to access this critical point in a $single$ quantum wire and show its resilience to disorder.
A theory is proposed to describe the competition among antiferromagnetism (AF), spin glass (SG) and Kondo effect. The model describes two Kondo sublattices with an intrasite Kondo interaction strength $J_{K}$ and an interlattice quantum Ising interac
tion in the presence of a transverse field $Gamma$. The interlattice coupling is a random Gaussian distributed variable (with average $-2J_0/N$ and variance $32 J^{2}/N$) while the $Gamma$ field is introduced as a quantum mechanism to produce spin flipping. The path integral formalism is used to study this fermionic problem where the spin operators are represented by bilinear combinations of Grassmann fields. The disorder is treated within the framework of the replica trick. The free energy and the order parameters of the problem are obtained by using the static ansatz and by choosing both $J_0/J$ and $Gamma/J approx (J_k/J)^2$ to allow, as previously, a better comparison with the experimental findings. The results indicate the presence of a SG solution at low $J_K/J$ and for temperature $T<T_{f}$ ($T_{f}$ is the freezing temperature). When $J_K/J$ is increased, a mixed phase AF+SG appears, then an AF solution and finally a Kondo state is obtained for high values of $J_{K}/J$. Moreover, the behaviors of the freezing and Neel temperatures are also affected by the relationship between $J_{K}$ and the transverse field $Gamma$. The first one presents a slight decrease while the second one decreases towards a Quantum Critical Point (QCP). The obtained phase diagram has the same sequence as the experimental one for $Ce_{2}Au_{1-x}Co_{x}Si_{3}$, if $J_{K}$ is assumed to increase with $x$, and in addition, it also shows a qualitative agreement concerning the behavior of the freezing and the Neel temperatures.
The heavy-fermion metal YbRh$_{2}$Si$_{2}$ is a weak antiferromagnet below $T_{N} = 0.07$ K. Application of a low magnetic field $B_{c} = 0.06$ T ($perp c$) is sufficient to continuously suppress the antiferromagnetic (AF) order. Below $T approx 10$
K, the Sommerfeld coefficient of the electronic specific heat $gamma(T)$ exhibits a logarithmic divergence. At $T < 0.3$ K, $gamma(T) sim T^{-epsilon}$ ($epsilon: 0.3 - 0.4$), while the electrical resistivity $rho(T) = rho_{0} + aT$ ($rho_{0}$: residual resistivity). Upon extrapolating finite-$T$ data of transport and thermodynamic quantities to $T = 0$, one observes (i) a vanishing of the Fermi surface crossover scale $T^{*}(B)$, (ii) an abrupt jump of the initial Hall coefficient $R_{H}(B)$ and (iii) a violation of the Wiedemann Franz law at $B = B_{c}$, the field-induced quantum critical point (QCP). These observations are interpreted as evidence of a critical destruction of the heavy quasiparticles, i.e., propagating Kondo singlets, at the QCP of this material.
