We investigate the dynamics of spheroids immersed in the journal bearing flow subject to a contractible non-reciprocal loop. We show how geometric phases appear not only in the position, but also in the orientation of such particles. We…
Whenever a quantum system undergoes a cycle governed by a slow change of parameters, it acquires a phase factor: the geometric phase. Its most common formulations are known as the Aharonov-Bohm, Pancharatnam and Berry phases, but both prior…

It is demonstrated that power-laws which are modified by logarithmic corrections arise in supercorrelated systems. Their characteristic feature is the energy attributed to a state (or value of a general cost function) which depends…
We consider diffusion-controlled release of particles from $d$-dimensional radially-symmetric geometries. A quantity commonly used to characterise such diffusive processes is the proportion of particles remaining within the geometry over…

We discuss emergence of geometrical scaling as a consequence of the nonlinear evolution equations of QCD, which generate a new dynamical scale, known as the saturation momentum: Qs. In the kinematical region where no other energy scales…
