The single-particle densitity of states (DOS) for the Pauli and the Schr\"{o}dinger Hamiltonians in the presence of an Aharonov-Bohm potential is calculated for different values of the particle magnetic moment. The DOS is a symmetric and…
This paper traces the early history of the Aharonov-Bohm effect. It appears to have been `discovered' at least three times to my knowledge before the defining paper of Aharonov and Bohm appeared in 1959. The first hint of the effect appears…
A one-way wave equation is an evolution equation in one of the space directions that describes (approximately) a wave field. The exact wave field is approximated in a high frequency, microlocal sense. Here we derive the pseudodifferential…
We present new exact solutions (in 3+1 and 2+1 dimensions) of relativistic wave equations (Klein-Gordon and Dirac) in external electromagnetic fields of special form. These fields are combinations of Aharonov-Bohm solenoid field and some…
The Aharonov-Bohm effect is one of the most surprising wonders of the quantum world. The observed solenoid effect, as well as others, shows that a particle is affected by the potential in a region in which there is no force-field. This is…
Hopfions are localized and topologically non-trivial magnetic configurations that have received considerable attention in recent years. Through a micromagnetic approach, we analyze the scattering of spin waves by magnetic hopfions. We show…
We show that in the absence of a magnetic field the spectrum of the magnetic Schr\"odinger operator in an annulus depends on the cosine of the flux associated with the magnetic potential. This result follows from an analysis of a…

Aharonov-Bohm oscillations are studied in the magnetoconductance of a micron-sized open quantum ring coupled capacitively to a Coulomb-blockaded quantum dot. As the plunger gate of the dot is modulated and tuned through a conductance…

We compute the temperature, voltage, and magnetic field dependences of the resistance oscillations of a model interferometer designed to measure the fractional statistics of the quasiparticles in the fractional quantum Hall (FQH) effect.…
First, we make a revision of the up-to-date Passive Scalar Fields properties: also, the refractive index is among them. Afterwards, we formulated the properties that make the family of `isotropic' fractional Brownian motion (with parameter…
In this paper we consider a representative a priori unstable Hamiltonian system with 2+1/2 degrees of freedom, to which we apply the geometric mechanism for diffusion introduced in the paper Delshams et al., Mem. Amer. Math. Soc. 2006, and…
A Hamiltonian reduction approach is defined, studied, and finally used to derive asymptotic models of internal wave propagation in density stratified fluids in two-dimensional domains. Beginning with the general Hamiltonian formalism of…
Using the formula found by Noorbala and Sepehrinia, the wave deviation in an inhomogeneous medium with continuous variation of propagation velocity is deduced. For electromagnetic waves (light) that propagate in the gravitational field, the…
Electron transport through mesoscopic, one-dimensional rings with asymmetric injection into the arms of the ring is studied, in the presence of a Aharonov-Bohm flux, by means of an appropriate $\boldsymbol{S}$ matrix. This matrix is…
We study the Aharonov-Bohm effect in an openended tube made of a graphene sheet whose dimensions are much larger than the interatomic distance in graphene. An external magnetic field vanishes on and in the vicinity of the graphene sheet and…
The Aharonov-Bohm (AB) effect is now largely considered to be a manifestation of geometric phase. However, by decomposing the vector-potential gradient tensor into divergence, curl, and shear components, we isolate a field/charged-particle…
