In the present paper, we investigate the polarization properties of the cholesteric liquid crystals (CLCs) with an isotropic/anisotropic defect inside them. Possibilities of amplification of the polarization plane rotation and stabilization…

We determine the detailed thermodynamic behavior of vortices in the O(2) scalar model in 2D and of global monopoles in the O(3) model in 3D. We construct new numerical techniques, based on cluster decomposition algorithms, to analyze the…

Exciton-polariton condensates display a variety of intriguing pattern-forming behaviors, particularly when confined in potential traps. It has previously been predicted that triangular lattices of vortices of the same sign will form…

The subject of calculating the topological charge (TC) or vortex strength of optical vortices has generated divided opinions among scientists. This is due to the fact that proper analytical results are hard to support from the experimental…

In this paper, we verified the critical conjecture in our previous work \cite{wang2023wave} on two-dimensional hyperbolic space, that is, concerning nonlinear wave equations with logarithmic nonlinearity, which behaves like $\left(\ln…

It has long been assumed that there is an intrinsic conflict between optical vortices and partial coherence, in that deterministic phase vortices do not appear in partially coherent fields. We demonstrate, however, that it is possible to…

Power induced wave collapse is one of the most fascinating phenomena in optics as it provides extremely high intensities, thus stimulating a range of nonlinear processes. For low power levels, propagation of beams in bulk media is dominated…

We carry out numerical simulations of the gravitational collapse of a perfect fluid with the ultrarelativistic equation of state $P=\kappa\rho$, in spherical symmetry in $2+1$ spacetime dimensions with $\Lambda<0$. At the threshold of…
