We study numerically the dynamics of particles on the Galton board of semi-disk scatters in presence of monochromatic radiation and dissipation. It is shown that under certain conditions the radiation leads to appearance of directed…
Various regimes of a charge motion along a chain in a constant electric field are investigated. This motion is simulated on the basis of the Holstein model. Earlier studies demonstrate a possibility of a uniform motion of a charge in a…

We consider an electron moving in a periodic potential and subject to an additional slowly varying external electrostatic potential, $\phi(\epsi x)$, and vector potential $A(\epsi x)$, with $x \in \R^d$ and $\epsi \ll 1$. We prove that…
