In recent years, it has been discovered that massive stars commonly exhibit a non-coherent form of variability in their light curves referred to as stochastic low frequency (SLF) variability. Various physical mechanisms can produce SLF…
Parameter regions in which stars can become pulsationally unstable are found throughout the Hertzsprung-Russel diagram. Stars of high, intermediate, low and very low masses may cross various instability regions along their paths of…

We discuss and briefly overview recent progress with studying fluctuations in scattering on a resonance state coupled to the background of many chaotic states. Such a problem arises naturally, e.g., when dealing with wave propagation in the…
Quantum many-body scars are atypical nonthermal states embedded in the chaotic spectrum that evade conventional ergodicity. We show that asymptotically AdS mini-boson stars provide a holographic realization of scar-like states. Their…

In this paper we study radial oscillations of rotating strange stars in strong magnetic fields in the Density Dependent Quark Mass (DDQM) model. We see that increase of frequency i.e. difference in frequency of rotating and non-rotating…
It is shown that the oscillations of brightness in classical Cepheids and other 'pulsating' variable stars are caused rather by the passing of radial solitary waves through the photosphere of a star, than by pulsations of a star. Radial…
Formation of chaos in the parametric dependent system of interacting oscillators for the both classical and quantum cases has been investigated. Domain in which classical motion is chaotic is defined. It has been shown that for certain…
Observations of stars other than the Sun are sensitive to oscillations of only low degree. Many are high-order acoustic modes. Acoustic frequencies of main-sequence stars, for example, satisfy a well-known pattern, which some astronomers…
We study a simple one-dimensional quantum system on a circle with n scale free point interactions. The spectrum of this system is discrete and expressible as a solution of an explicit secular equation. However, its statistical properties…
Shock waves are examples of the far-from-equilibrium behaviour of matter; they are ubiquitous in nature, yet the underlying microscopic mechanisms behind their formation are not well understood. Here, we study the dynamics of dispersive…
