We study notions of hyperuniformity for invariant locally square-integrable point processes in regular trees. We show that such point processes are never geometrically hyperuniform, and if the diffraction measure has support in the…
Percolation theory is usually applied to lattices with a uniform probability p that a site is occupied or that a bond is closed. The more general case, where p is a function of the position x, has received less attention. Previous studies…
We study the statistics of quantum transmission through a one-dimensional disordered system modelled by a sequence of independent scattering units. Each unit is characterized by its length and by its action, which is proportional to the…
In one dimension, any disorder is traditionally believed to localize all states. We show that this paradigm breaks down under hyperuniform disorder, which suppresses long-wavelength fluctuations and interpolates between random and periodic…
Disordered nanostructures are commonly encountered in many nanophotonic systems, from colloid dispersions for sensing, to heterostructured photocatalysts. Randomness, however, imposes severe challenges for nanophotonics modeling, often…
Due to the lack of long-range order, it remains challenging to characterize the structure of disordered solids and understand the nature of the glass transition. Here we propose a new structural order parameter by taking into account…
Random, uncorrelated displacements of particles on a lattice preserve the hyperuniformity of the original lattice, that is, normalized density fluctuations vanish in the limit of infinite wavelengths. In addition to a diffuse contribution,…
We introduce the theater model, which is the simplest variant of directed random sequential adsorption in one dimension with point source and steric interactions. Particles enter sequentially an initially empty row of $L$ sites and adsorb…
We study the density of specular reflection points in the geometrical optics limit when light scatters off fluctuating interfaces and membranes in thermodynamic equilibrium. We focus on the statistical mechanics of both capillary-gravity…
Observing finite regions of a bigger system is a common experience, from microscopy to molecular simulations. In the latter especially, there is ongoing interest in predicting thermodynamic properties from tracking fluctuations in finite…
All liquids are topologically disordered materials; however, the degree of disorder can vary as a result of internal fluctuations in structure and topology. These fluctuations depend on both the composition and temperature of the system.…
Random point configurations are said to be in hyperuniform states, if density fluctuations are anomalously suppressed in large-scale. Typical examples are found in Coulomb gas systems in two dimensions especially called log-gases in random…
To better understand the temporal characteristics and the lifetime of fluctuations in stochastic processes in networks, we investigated diffusive persistence in various graphs. Global diffusive persistence is defined as the fraction of…
We present experimental evidence for the different mechanisms driving the fluctuations of the local density of states (LDOS) in disordered photonic systems. We establish a clear link between the microscopic structure of the material and the…
We analyze the behavior of an ensemble of inertial particles in a one-dimensional smooth Gaussian velocity field, in the limit of large inertia, but considering a finite correlation time for the random field. We derive in this limit a…
Hyperuniform materials, characterized by their suppressed density fluctuations and vanishing structure factors as the wave number approaches zero, represent a unique state of matter that straddles the boundary between order and randomness.…
We characterize universal features of the sample-to-sample fluctuations of global geometrical observables, such as the area, width, length, and center-of-mass position, in random growing planar clusters. Our examples are taken from…
One of the main problems of observational cosmology is to determine the range in which a reliable measurement of galaxy correlations is possible. This corresponds to determine the shape of the correlation function, its possible evolution…
We analyse the long-lasting effects of initial conditions on fluctuations in one-dimensional diffusive systems. We consider both the fluctuations of current for non-interacting diffusive particles starting from a step-like initial density…
We discuss recent work on the static and dynamical properties of the asymmetric exclusion process, generalized to include the effect of disorder. We study in turn: random disorder in the properties of particles; disorder in the spatial…
