We provide a theoretical framework to describe the interaction of a propagating guided matter wave with a localized potential in terms of quantum scattering in a confined environment. We analyze how this scattering correlates the…
In systems that exhibit a bistability between nonlinear traveling waves and the basic state, pairs of fronts connecting these two states can form localized wave pulses whose stability depends on the interaction between the fronts. We…

Localization properties of particles in one-dimensional incommensurate lattices without interaction are investigated with models beyond the tight-binding Aubry-Andr\'e (AA) model. Based on a tight-binding t_1 - t_2 model with finite…
We investigate quantum phase transitions occurring in a system of strongly interacting ultracold bosons in a 1D optical lattice. After discussing the commensurate-incommensurate transition, we focus on the phases appearing at incommensurate…
In frameworks of the phenomenological approach we analyze of the phase diagram of mixed compounds. We obtain space groups of symmetry of the real structures as result of phase transition from close-packed degenerate structure. The theory of…
Disorder can localize the eigenstates of one-dimensional non-Hermitian systems, leading to an Anderson transition with a critical exponent of 1. We show that, due to the lack of energy conservation, the dynamics of individual, real-space…
The motion of overdamped particles in a one-dimensional spatially-periodic potential is considered. The potential is also randomly-fluctuating in time, due to multiplicative colored noise terms, and has a deterministic tilt. Numerical…
Topic of the thesis is a theoretical description of the ultracold atomic gases in one- and two-dimensional optical lattices in the presence of the disorder leading to the Anderson localization. The disorder is created by interaction of the…
In the dynamics generated by the suspension bridge equation, traveling waves are an essential feature. The existing literature focuses primarily on the idealized one-dimensional case, while traveling structures in two spatial dimensions…
Localized waves in disordered one-dimensional materials have been studied for decades, including white-noise and correlated disorder, as well as quasi-periodic disorder. How these wave phenomena relate to those in crystalline (periodic…
Diffusion has been widely used to describe a random walk of particles or waves, and it requires only one parameter -- the diffusion constant. For waves, however, diffusion is an approximation that disregards the possibility of interference.…
The two-dimensional hyperbolic plane, $\mathbb{H}^2$, is an unusual system in that dimensionality changes with scale: locally two-dimensional and planar at short distances, but effectively infinite-dimensional at large scales, it provides…
We study statistical properties of the ensemble of large $N\times N$ random matrices whose entries $ H_{ij}$ decrease in a power-law fashion $H_{ij}\sim|i-j|^{-\alpha}$. Mapping the problem onto a nonlinear $\sigma-$model with non-local…
We consider a paradigmatic nonvariational scalar Swift-Hohenberg equation that describes short wavenumber or large wavelength pattern forming systems. This work unveils evidence of the transition from stable stationary to moving localized…
Steady-state and transient antiplane dynamic processes in a structured solids consisting of uniform periodic square-cell lattices connected by a lattice layer of different bond stiffnesses and point masses are analyzed. A semi-infinite…
We explore the notion of spatial extent and structure, already alluded to in earlier literature, within the formulation of quantum mechanics on the noncommutative plane. Introducing the notion of average position and its measurement, we…
