We investigate the nonequilibrium coarsening dynamics in two-dimensional overdamped superconducting arrays under zero external current, where ohmic dissipation occurs on junctions between superconducting islands through uniform resistance.…
We present a numerical study of the transport and localization properties of excitations in one-dimensional lattices with diagonal disordered mosaic modulations. The model is characterized by the modulation period $\kappa$ and the disorder…
We present the theory of the effect of thermal fluctuations on commensurate "p x p" density wave ordering on the square lattice (p >= 3, integer). For the case in which this order is lost by a second order transition, we argue that the…
We investigate localization properties in the highly anisotropic and intrinsically disordered layered material, which is analogous to high-Tc cuprates. By varying the anisotropy of the system which is parameterized by the interlayer hopping…
The presence of disorder can severely impede wave transport, resulting in the famous Anderson localization. Previous theoretical studies found that Anderson transition can exist in one-dimensional (1D) non-Hermitian disordered rings with…
Anderson localization, i.e. the suppression of diffusion in lattices with random or incommensurate disorder, is a fragile interference phenomenon which is spoiled out in the presence of dephasing effects or fluctuating disorder. As a…
Some popular mechanisms for restricting the diffusion of waves include introducing disorder (to provoke Anderson localization) and engineering topologically non-trivial phases (to allow for topological edge states to form). However, other…
We study the Anderson localization in a weakly coupled multilayer system with a strong magnetic field perpendicular to the layers. The phase diagram of 1/3 flux quanta per plaquette is obtained. The phase diagram shows that a…
Dyson insulators with random hoppings in a lattice approach localization faster compared to the usual Anderson insulators with site disorder. For even-$N$ lattice sites the Dyson insulators mimic topological insulators with a pseudo-gap at…
This experimental study of driven intrinsic localized modes (ILMs) in an electronic circuit lattice with saturable nonlinearity follows the theoretical work of Hadzievski and coworkers. They proposed that a saturable nonlinearity could…

The existence of thresholdless vortex solitons trapped at the core of disclination lattices that realize higher-order topological insulators is reported. The study demonstrates the interplay between nonlinearity and higher-order topology in…
Wave localization is ubiquitous in disordered media -- from amorphous materials, where soft-mode localization is closely related to materials failure, to semi-conductors, where Anderson localization leads to metal-insulator transition. Our…
We investigate the quantum dynamics of wave packets in a class of decorated lattices, both quasiperiodic and random, where a nominal quasi-one dimensionality is introduced at local levels, bringing in a deterministic or even random…
Like a free particle, the initial growth of a broad (relative to lattice spacing) wavepacket placed on an ordered lattice is slow (zero initial slope) and becomes linear in $t$ at long time. On a disordered lattice, the growth is inhibited…
We study the localization problem of one-dimensional interacting spinless fermions in an incommensurate optical lattice, which changes from an extended phase to a nonergoic many-body localized phase by increasing the strength of the…
A heterostructure of a semi-infinite metal and a Mott insulator is considered. It is supposed that both materials have an identical lattice spacing and hopping integrals and differ in the Hubbard repulsion which is negligible in the metal…
In disordered Hermitian systems, localization of energy eigenstates prohibits wave propagation. In non-Hermitian systems, however, wave propagation is possible even when the eigenstates of Hamiltonian are exponentially localized by…
We identify anomalous scale-free localization and the associated impurity-induced loss bursts in a non-Hermitian dissipative cross-stitch lattice. By a local basis rotation, the model is mapped onto an effective non-Hermitian…
