Wave shoaling of water waves over mild bottom slopes is well described by linearized theories. However, the analytical treatment of nonlinear wave shoaling subject to rapidly varying bottoms has proven to be elusive in the past decades. As…
Nanoscale lasers sustain few optical modes so that the fraction of spontaneous emission $\beta$ funnelled into the useful (lasing) mode is high (of the order of few 10$^{-1}$) and the threshold, which traditionally corresponds to an abrupt…
