We study 1-Wasserstein propagation of chaos for "McKean-type" nonlinear Markov chains and their associated interacting particle systems. This paper is organized into two parts: the first part combines arguments from various areas of…
Structures with heavy-tailed distributions of disorder occur widely in nature. The evolution of such systems, as in foraging for food or the occurrence of earthquakes is generally analyzed in terms of an incoherent series of events. But the…

Anderson localization predicts that wave spreading in disordered lattices can come to a complete halt, providing a universal mechanism for {dynamical localization}. In the one-dimensional Hermitian Anderson model with uncorrelated diagonal…

Disorder and coherence jointly govern wave transport in complex media. In Hermitian systems, a long-established paradigm since Anderson's work holds that disorder-induced localization relies on phase-coherent interference, and that the loss…

In analogy with usual Anderson localization taking place in time-independent disordered quantum systems where the disorder acts in configuration space, systems exposed to temporally disordered potentials can display Anderson localization in…
In problems where the temporal evolution of a nonlinear system cannot be followed, a method for studying the fluctuations of spatial patterns has been developed. That method is applied to well-known problems in deterministic chaos (the…
We present two complementary simulations that lead to an exploration of Anderson localization, a phenomenon in which wave diffusion is suppressed in disordered media by interference from multiple scattering. To build intuition, the first…
We consider a mechanism for area preserving Hamiltonian systems which leads to the enhanced probability, $P(\lambda, t)$, to find small values of the finite time Lyapunov exponent, $\lambda$. In our investigation of chaotic dynamical…
We show that the tails of the asymptotic density distribution of a quantum wave packet that localizes in the the presence of random or quasiperiodic disorder can be described by the diagonal term of the projection over the eingenstates of…
