Quantized adiabatic transport can occur when a system is slowly modulated over time. In most realizations however, the efficiency of such transport is reduced by unwanted dissipation, back-scattering, and non-adiabatic effects. In this…

Here we study the phase diagram of the Aubry-Andre-Harper model in the presence of strong interactions as the strength of the quasiperiodic potential is varied. Previous work has established the existence of many-body localized phase at…

A new characterization of the Anderson phase transition, based on the response of the system to the boundary conditions is introduced. We change the boundary conditions from periodic to antiperiodic and look for its effects on the…

Localization in one-dimensional disordered or quasiperiodic non-interacting systems in presence of power-law hopping is very different from localization in short-ranged systems. Power-law hopping leads to algebraic localization as opposed…
Aubry-Andre Harper (AAH) lattice models, characterized by reflection-asymmetric, sinusoidally varying nearest-neighbor tunneling profile, are well-known for their topological properties. We consider the fate of such models in the presence…
We study localization occurring during high speed shear deformations of metals leading to the formation of shear bands. The localization instability results from the competition among Hadamard instability (caused by softening response) and…
Adiabatic topological pumping enables robust transport of energy and information, yet its operational speed is fundamentally constrained by the instantaneous adiabatic condition, which necessitates prohibitively slow parameter variations.…
We identify steerable exponentially localized in-gap mode in a quasiperiodic non-Hermitian Aubry-Andr\'e-Harper chain with a spatially fluctuating, zero-mean imaginary gauge field. Under open boundary conditions, the system is exactly…
In this manuscript we report on adiabatic pumping in quasiperiodic stiffness modulated beams. We show that distinct topological states populating nontrivial gaps can nucleate avoided crossings characterized by edge-to-edge transitions. Such…
The transport of deformable self-propelling objects like bacteria, worms, snakes, and robots through heterogeneous environments is poorly understood. In this paper, we use experiment, simulation, and theory to study a snake-like robot as it…
Methods of large amplitude collective motion in the adiabatic limit are examined with a special emphasis on conservation laws. We show that the restriction to point transformations, which is a usual assumption of the adiabatic…
