When a cold atomic gas is illuminated by a quasi-resonant laser beam, light-induced dipole-dipole correlations make the scattering of light a cooperative process. Once a fluid description is adopted for the atoms, many scattering properties…

An optical field will undergo coherent diffusion when it is mapped into thermal-motioned atoms, e.g., in a slow or storage light process. As was demonstrated before, such diffusion effect is equivalent to a spatial low-pass filter…

We study an anisotropic, possibly non-homogeneous version of the evolution $p$-Laplacian equation when fast diffusion holds in all directions. We develop the basic theory and prove symmetrization results from which we derive $L^1$ to…
