We investigate the high-frequency behavior of the density of vibrational states in three-dimensional elasticity theory with spatially fluctuating elastic moduli. At frequencies well above the mobility edge, instanton solutions yield an…
We perform an asymptotic analysis of general particle systems arising in collective behavior in the limit of large self-propulsion and friction forces. These asymptotics impose a fixed speed in the limit, and thus a reduction of the…
Catastrophic events in Nature can be often triggered by small perturbations, with "remote triggering" of earthquakes being an important example. Here we present a mechanism for the giant amplification of small perturbations that is expected…
The finest state space resolution that can be achieved in a physical dynamical system is limited by the presence of noise. In the weak-noise approximation the neighborhoods of deterministic periodic orbits can be computed as distributions…
In this paper we consider formal asymptotic algorithms for a class of meso-scale approximations for problems of vibration of elastic membranes, which contain clusters of small inertial inclusions distributed along contours of pre-defined…
We propose a renormalization process of a two phase WKB solution, which is based on an appropriate surgery of local uniform asymptotic approximations of the Wigner transform of the WKB solution. We explain in details how this process…
We study quantum oscillator lattice systems with disorder, in arbitrary dimension, requiring only partial localization of the associated effective one-particle Hamiltonian. This leads to a many-body localized regime of excited states with…

Non-Hermitian Hamiltonians can give rise to exceptional points (EPs) which have been extensively explored with nominally identical coupled resonators. Here a non-Hermitian electromechanical system is developed which hosts vibration modes…
A formalism is introduced which may describe both standard linearized waves and gravitational waves in Isaacson's high-frequency limit. After emphasizing main differences between the two approximation techniques we generalize the Isaacson…
The low-frequency vibrations of glasses are markedly different from those of crystals. These vibrations have recently been categorized into two types: spatially extended vibrations, whose vibrational density of states (vDOS) follows a…
Linear and nonlinear resonant states can be restrictive: they exist at particular discrete states in frequency and/or elasticity, under particular (e.g., simple-harmonic) waveforms. In forced oscillators, this restrictiveness is an obstacle…
The gravito-inertial waves propagating over a shellular baroclinic flow inside a rotating spherical shell are analysed using the Boussinesq approximation. The wave properties are examined by computing paths of characteristics in the…
For objects of "large" vibration size such as waves on the sea surface, the choice of measurement method can create different understandings of system behavior. In one case, laser vibrometry measurements of a vibrating bar in a controlled…

Bounding volume results in discreteness of eigenmodes in wave systems. This leads to a depletion or complete loss of wave resonances (three-wave, four-wave, etc.), which has a strong effect on Wave Turbulence, (WT) i.e. on the statistical…
Recent work has shown a deep connection between semilocal approximations in density functional theory and the asymptotics of the sum of the WKB semiclassical expansion for the eigenvalues. However, all examples studied to date have…
