Stability and properties of striped phases in systems of interacting fermions or hard-core bosons

In this thesis we deal with the specific collective phenomena in condensed matter - striped-structures formation. Such structures are observed in different branches of condensed matter physics, like surface physics or physics of high-temperature superconductors. These quasi-one-dimensional objects appear in theoretical analyses as well as in computer simulations of different theoretical models. Here, the main topic of interest is the stability of striped structures in certain quantum models, where a tendency towards crystallization competes with a tendency towards phase separation, and some basic properties of these structures.
