Boundary driven diffusive systems describe a broad range of transport phenomena. We study large deviations of the density profile in these systems, using numerical and analytical methods. We find that the large deviation may be…

The aim of this paper is to examine the large-scale behavior of dynamical optimal transport on stationary random graphs embedded in $\R^n$. Our primary contribution is a stochastic homogenization result that characterizes the effective…
In an isolated single-particle quantum system a spatial disorder can induce Anderson localization. Being a result of interference, this phenomenon is expected to be fragile in the face of dissipation. Here we show that dissipation can drive…
Strain localization is an instability phenomenon occurring in deformable solid materials which undergo dissipative deformation mechanisms. Such instability is characterized by the localization of the displacement or velocity fields in a…

We study the steady state structure and dynamics of a 2-d Ising interface placed in an inhomogeneous external field with a sigmoidal profile which moves with velocity $v_{e}$. In the strong coupling limit the problem maps onto an…
The evolution of molecular interstellar clouds is a complex, multi-scale process. The power-law density exponent describes the steepness of density profiles, and it has been used to characterize the density structures of the clouds yet its…
Subjecting a many-body localized system to a time-periodic drive generically leads to delocalization and a transition to ergodic behavior if the drive is sufficiently strong or of sufficiently low frequency. Here we show that a specific…
