Oscillons are extremely long lived, oscillatory, spatially localized field configurations that arise from generic initial conditions in a large number of non-linear field theories. With an eye towards their cosmological implications, we…

We address estimation of the minimum length arising from gravitational theories. In particular, we provide bounds on precision and assess the use of quantum probes to enhance the estimation performances. At first, we review the concept of…

We investigate charge relaxation in disordered and quasi-periodic quantum-wires of spin-less fermions ($t{-}V$-model) at different inhomogeneity strength $W$ in the localized and nearly-localized regime. Our observable is the time-dependent…

We derive a quantization formula of Bohr-Sommerfeld type for computing quasinormal frequencies for scalar perturbations in an AdS black hole in the limit of large scalar mass or spatial momentum. We then apply the formula to find poles in…

We consider the small time semi-classical limit for nonlinear Schrodinger equations with defocusing, smooth, nonlinearity. For a super-cubic nonlinearity, the limiting system is not directly hyperbolic, due to the presence of vacuum. To…

Quasisymmetry (QS) is a hidden symmetry of the magnetic field strength, B, that effectively confines charged particles in a three-dimensional toroidal plasma equilibrium. Here, we show that QS has a deep connection to the underlying…

Discrete breathers are time-periodic, spatially localized solutions of the equations of motion for a system of classical degrees of freedom interacting on a lattice. Such solutions are investigated for a diatomic Fermi-Pasta-Ulam chain, i.…

This article focuses on long-time existence for quasilinear wave equations with small initial data in exterior domains. The nonlinearity is permitted to fully depend on the solution at the quadratic level, rather than just the first and…

This paper investigates the high frequency quasi-periodic oscillations (HFQPOs) phenomenon around the black bounce-type (BBT) spacetime using the resonance models. We calculated the location of the innermost stable circular orbit (ISCO) for…

We analyse the evolution of a quantum oscillator in a finite temperature environment using the quantum state diffusion (QSD) picture. Following a treatment similar to that of reference [7] we identify stationary solutions of the…

The existence of breather type solutions, i.e., periodic in time, exponentially localized in space solutions, is a very unusual feature for continuum, nonlinear wave type equations. Following an earlier work [Comm. Math. Phys. {\bf 302},…
