It is well known that a superfluid rotates by forming an array of quantized vortices. A relativistic formulation for superfluid vortex dynamics is required for a range of problems in astrophysics and cosmology, from neutron star interiors…
Electromagnetic (EM) wave scattering in electrically large, irregularly shaped, environments is a common phenomenon. The deterministic, or first principles, study of this process is usually computationally expensive and the results exhibit…
To avoid instabilities in the continuum semi-classical limit of loop quantum cosmology models, refinement of the underlying lattice is necessary. The lattice refinement leads to new dynamical difference equations which, in general, do not…
