A theoretical study is presented on the scattering of graphene surface plasmons by defects in the graphene sheet they propagate in. These defects can be either natural (as domain boundaries, ripples and cracks, among others) or induced by…

We study the two-dimensional rotating shallow-water model describing Earth's oceanic layers. It is formally analogue to a Schr\"odinger equation where the tools from topological insulators are relevant. Once regularized at small scale by an…
