We study the long-term behaviour of the nonlinear, aperiodically and parametrically forced oscillator z'' + z + g(tau) z^2 = 0, g(tau) = y(tau)^(-5/2), where y(tau) is the strictly positive solution of a weakly forced third-order equation.…
We study the steady state of an assembly of microtubules in a confined volume, analogous to the situation inside a cell where the cell boundary forms a natural barrier to growth. We show that the dynamical equations for growing and…
It has been proposed that disorder may lead to a new type of topological insulator, called topological Anderson insulator (TAI). Here we examine the physical origin of this phenomenon. We calculate the topological invariants and density of…
