A cross-Kerr interaction produces a phase shift on two modes of light proportional to the number of photons in both modes, and is sometimes called cross-phase modulation. Cross-Kerr nonlinearities have many applications in classical and…

Hannestad and Scherrer analysed self-interacting Warm and Hot Dark Matter and found power spectra in disagreement with previous papers. We argue that they include self-interactions in a weak-coupling approximation, as for photons after…
