Using matter waves that are trapped in a deep optical lattice, dissipationless directed transport is demonstrated to occur if the single-band quantum dynamics is periodically tilted on one half of the lattice by a monochromatic field. Most…

This paper is the second in a series where we examine the generation and filtering of internal gravity waves in stars and the consequences of wave induced transport of angular momentum at various stages of the stellar evolution. Here we…

We introduce nonlocal dynamics on directed networks through the construction of a fractional version of a nonsymmetric Laplacian for weighted directed graphs. Furthermore, we provide an analytic treatment of fractional dynamics for both…

The properties of quantum mechanics with a discrete phase space are studied. The minimum uncertainty states are found, and these states become the Gaussian wave packets in the continuum limit. With a suitably chosen Hamiltonian that gives…

Optical beams with certain asymmetric profiles, such as the Airy beam, can depart from rectilinear propagation and instead travel along curved (typically parabolic) trajectories. Here we show that sculpting the spatiotemporal spectrum of…

Non radial oscillations of neutron stars are associated with the emission of gravitational waves. The characteristic frequencies of these oscillations can be computed using the theory of stellar perturbations, and they are shown to carry…

Bidirected graphs are a common generalisation of directed graphs where arcs can also be incoming to both their incident nodes, or outgoing from both their incident nodes. Such arcs allow a walk to change direction. Some algorithms can…

In this paper the focus is on subsampling as well as reconstructing the second-order statistics of signals residing on nodes of arbitrary undirected graphs. Second-order stationary graph signals may be obtained by graph filtering zero-mean…

The exact nature of the arms of spiral galaxies is still an open question. It has been widely assumed that spiral arms in galaxies with two distinct symmetrical arms are the products of density waves that propagate around the disk, with the…

We study two-dimensional quantum Gaussian packets with a fixed value of mean angular momentum. This value is the sum of two independent parts: the `external' momentum related to the motion of the packet center and the `internal' momentum…

Many processes of spreading and diffusion take place on temporal networks, and their outcomes are influenced by correlations in the times of contact. These correlations have a particularly strong influence on processes where the spreading…

New exact and asymptotic results for a quantum inverted oscillator, driven by the variable external force, are presented. To illustrate the advantages of our approach, we applied the obtained propagator to the descriptions of evolution the…

Two-dimensional materials (2DMs) are fundamentally electro-mechanical systems. Their environment unavoidably strains them and modifies their quantum transport properties. For instance, a simple uniaxial strain could completely turn off the…

Coherent evolution governs the behaviour of all quantum systems, but in nature it is often subjected to influence of a classical environment. For analysing quantum transport phenomena quantum walks emerge as suitable model systems. In…

A stochastic control of the vibrational motion for a single trapped ion/atom is proposed. It is based on the possibility to continously monitor the motion through a light field meter. The output from the measurement process should be then…
