We investigate how the time dependence of the Hamiltonian determines the occurrence of Dynamical Localization (DL) in driven quantum systems with two incommensurate frequencies. If both frequencies are associated to impulsive terms, DL is…

In \cite{Lee:2006:schrod-converg}, when the spatial variable $x$ is localized, Lee observed that the Schr\"odinger maximal operator $e^{it\Delta}f(x)$ enjoys certain localization property in $t$ for frequency localized functions. In this…

We study the localization transition in periodically driven one-dimensional non-Hermitian lattices where the piece-wise two-step drive is constituted by uniform coherent tunneling and incommensurate onsite gain and loss. We find that the…

Schr\"odinger operators with periodic potential have generally been shown to exhibit ballistic transport. In this work, we investigate if the propagation velocity, while positive, can be made arbitrarily small by a suitable choice of the…

Long-lasting quantum exponential spreading was recently found in a simple but very rich dynamical model, namely, an on-resonance double-kicked rotor model [J. Wang, I. Guarneri, G. Casati, and J. B. Gong, Phys. Rev. Lett. 107, 234104…

We consider an electrically charged particle on the Euclidean plane subjected to a perpendicular magnetic field which depends only on one of the two Cartesian co-ordinates. For such a ``unidirectionally constant'' magnetic field (UMF),…

We discuss various approaches to localization results for one-dimensional random Schr\"odinger operators, both discrete and continuum. We focus in particular on the approach based on F\"urstenberg's Theorem and the Kunz-Souillard method.…

We prove that the random Schrodinger operators on $\mathbb{R}^3$ with independent, identically distributed random variables and single-site potentials given by $\delta$-functions on $\mathbb{Z}^3$, exhibit both dynamical localization and…

We consider Schr\"odinger operators in $\ell^2(\Z)$ whose potentials are obtained by randomly concatenating words from an underlying set $\mathcal{W}$ according to some probability measure $\nu$ on $\mathcal{W}$. Our assumptions allow us to…

We study the existence and uniqueness of (locally) absolutely continuous trajectories of a dynamical system governed by a nonexpansive operator. The weak convergence of the orbits to a fixed point of the operator is investigated by relying…

We generalize the approach to localization in one dimension introduced by Kunz-Souillard, and refined by Delyon-Kunz-Souillard and Simon, in the early 1980's in such a way that certain correlations are allowed. Several applications of this…

We develop a general method to bound the spreading of an entire wavepacket under Schr\"odinger dynamics from above. This method derives upper bounds on time-averaged moments of the position operator from lower bounds on norms of transfer…

We investigate localization properties in a family of deterministic (i.e. no disorder) nearest neighbor tight binding models with quasiperiodic onsite modulation. We prove that this family is self-dual under a generalized duality…

This paper presents the first experimental evidence of the transition from dynamical localization to delocalization under the influence of a quasi-periodic driving on a quantum system. A quantum kicked rotator is realized by placing cold…
