For a family of second-order elliptic systems in divergence form with rapidly oscillating almost-periodic coefficients, we obtain estimates for approximate correctors in terms of a function that quantifies the almost periodicity of the…
We report on a direct connection between quasi-periodic topology and the Almost Mathieu (Andre-Aubry) metal insulator transition (MIT). By constructing quasi-periodic transfer matrix equations from the limit of rational approximate…
We generalize the approach to localization in one dimension introduced by Kunz-Souillard, and refined by Delyon-Kunz-Souillard and Simon, in the early 1980's in such a way that certain correlations are allowed. Several applications of this…
This paper addresses the Cauchy problem for the cubic defocusing nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation (NLS) with almost periodic initial data. We prove that for small analytic quasiperiodic initial data satisfying Diophantine frequency…

We present a notion of almost periodicity wich can be applied to random dynamical systems as well as almost periodic stochastic differential equations in Hilbert spaces (abstract stochastic partial differential equations). This concept…
For a homogenization problem associated to a linear elliptic operator, we prove the existence of a distributional corrector and we find an approximation scheme for the homogenized coefficients. We also study the convergence rates in the…
Electronic properties of amorphous or non-crystalline disordered solids are often modelled by one-particle Schroedinger operators with random potentials which are ergodic with respect to the full group of Euclidean translations. We give a…
We introduce and explore a family of self-dual models of single-particle motion in quasiperiodic potentials, with hopping amplitudes that fall off as a power law with exponent $p$. These models are generalizations of the familiar…
We establish almost sure invariance principles, a strong form of approximation by Brownian motion, for non-stationary time-series arising as observations on dynamical systems. Our examples include observations on sequential expanding maps,…
The arithmetics of the frequency and of the rotation number play a fundamental role in the study of reducibility of analytic quasi-periodic cocycles which are sufficiently close to a constant. In this paper we show how to generalize…
Harper's equation (aka the "almost Mathieu" equation) famously describes the quantum dynamics of an electron on a one dimensional lattice in the presence of an incommensurate potential with magnitude $V$ and wave number $Q$. It has been…
Consider a quasi-periodic Schr\"odinger operator $H_{\alpha,\theta}$ with analytic potential and irrational frequency $\alpha$. Given any rational approximating $\alpha$, let $S_+$ and $S_-$ denote the union, respectively, the intersection…
We develop a semiclassical density functional theory in the context of quantum dots. Coulomb blockade conductance oscillations have been measured in several experiments using nanostructured quantum dots. The statistical properties of these…
With the aim of describing real-time electron dynamics, we introduce an adiabatic approximation for the equation of motion of the one-body reduced-density matrix (one-matrix). The eigenvalues of the one-matrix, which represent the…
There has been recent interest in the relaxational modes of small-scale fully connected systems of aligning self-propelled particles (Spera et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 132}: 078301 (2024)). We revisit the classical connection between…
In our recent work we found a surprising breakdown of symmetry conservation: using standard numerical discretization with very high precision the computed numerical solutions corresponding to very nice initial data may converge to…
We study energy functionals associated with non-local quasi-linear Schr\"odinger operators, and develop a ground state representation. Our main focus is on infinite graphs but we also consider non-local quasi-linear Schr\"odinger operators…
In this review we focus on the almost diagonalization of pseudodifferential operators and highlight the advantages that time-frequency techniques provide here. In particular, we retrace the steps of an insightful paper by Gr\"ochenig, who…
We show that if the base frequency is Diophantine, then the Lyapunov exponent of a $C^{k}$ quasi-periodic $SL(2,\mathbb{R})$ cocycle is $1/2$-H\"older continuous in the almost reducible regime, if $k$ is large enough. As a consequence, we…
