Reduced transport and localization in isolated quantum systems are typically attributed to spatially-extended disorder, but may also emerge from the influence of a few controllable defects. We show here how a single defect profoundly…
We investigate the issue of eigenfunction localization in random fractal lattices embedded in two dimensional Euclidean space. In the system of our interest, there is no diagonal disorder -- the disorder arises from random connectivity of…
We consider Green's functions $G(z):=(H-z)^{-1}$ of Hermitian random band matrices $H$ on the $d$-dimensional lattice $(\mathbb Z/L\mathbb Z)^d$. The entries $h_{xy}=\bar h_{yx}$ of $H$ are independent centered complex Gaussian random…

We propose a new model to approximate the wave response of waveguides containing an arbitrary number of small inclusions. The theory is developed to consider any one-dimensional waveguide (longitudinal, flexural, shear, torsional waves or a…
We study the formation of localized modes around a generalized nonlinear impurity which is located at the boundary of a semi-infinite square lattice, and where we replace the standard discrete Laplacian by a fractional one, characterized by…
Scattering of waves due to a vertical array of equally-spaced cracks on a square lattice is studied. The convenience of Floquet periodicity reduces the study to that of scattering of specific wave-mode from single crack in a waveguide. The…

We determine the location $\lambda_c$ of the mobility edge in the spectrum of the hermitian Wilson operator in pure-gauge ensembles with plaquette, Iwasaki, and DBW2 gauge actions. The results allow mapping a portion of the (quenched) Aoki…
Transport properties of strongly correlated quantum systems are of central interest in condensed matter, ultracold atoms and in dense plasmas. There, the proper treatment of strong correlations poses a great challenge to theory. Here, we…
We present a quantum-field-theoretical framework based on path integrals and Feynman diagrams for the investigation of the quantum-optical properties of one-dimensional waveguiding structures with embedded quantum impurities. In particular,…
The dynamics of an extended, spatiotemporally chaotic system might appear extremely complex. Nevertheless, the local dynamics, observed through a finite spatiotemporal window, can often be thought of as a visitation sequence of a finite…
We calculate the local Green function for a quantum-mechanical particle with hopping between nearest and next-nearest neighbors on the Bethe lattice, where the on-site energies may alternate on sublattices. For infinite connectivity the…
This is a continuation of the authors' previous work (A. Kirsch, Math. Meth. Appl. Sci., 45 (2022): 5737-5773.) on well-posedness of time-harmonic scattering by locally perturbed periodic curves of Dirichlet kind. The scattering interface…
The bulk boundary correspondence, one of the most significant features of topological matter, theoretically connects the existence of edge modes at the boundary with topological invariants of the bulk spectral bands. However, it remains…
