We study the density of quasiparticle states of dirty d-wave superconductors. We show the existence of singular corrections to the density of states due to quantum interference effects. We then argue that the density of states actually…
When hadrons scatter at high energies, strong color fields, whose dynamics is described by quantum chromodynamics (QCD), are generated at the interaction point. If one represents these fields in terms of partons (quarks and gluons), the…
Scattering of electromagnetic (EM) waves by one and many small ($ka\ll 1$) impedance particles $D_m$ of an arbitrary shape, embedded in a homogeneous medium, is studied. Analytic formula for the field, scattered by one particle, is derived.…
We present some of the universal properties in ion-atom interaction derived from a newly formulated quantum-defect theory for $-1/r^4$ type of long-range interactions. For bound states, we present the universal bound spectrum, namely the…
A new dispersion relation for the partial wave $\pi\pi$ scattering $S$ matrix is set up. Using the dispersion relation we generalize the single channel unitarity condition, $SS^+=1$, to the entire complex $s$ plane, which is equivalent to…
This study aims to address the nature of state change, measurement, and probabilistic outcomes in non-relativistic quantum mechanics. We consider a pair of particles that interact in a one-dimensional setting via a delta-function potential.…
We consider a charged particle following the boundary of a two-dimensional domain because a homogeneous magnetic field is applied. We develop the basic scattering theory for the corresponding quantum mechanical edge states. The scattering…
We discuss the scattering of a quantum particle by two independent successive point interactions in one dimension. The parameter space for two point interactions is given by $U(2)\times U(2)$, which is described by eight real parameters. We…
The concept of a quantum structure underlying space has been proposed for quite some time, yet it has largely eluded direct observation. There is a prevailing notion that the minuscule effects stemming from quantum space could, under…
The single-file problem of N particles in one spatial dimension is analyzed, when each particle has a randomly distributed diffusion constant D sampled in a density $\rho(D)$. The averaged one-particle distributions of the edge particles…
The propagation of waves through transmission eigenchannels in complex media is emerging as a new frontier of condensed matter and wave physics. A crucial step towards constructing a complete theory of eigenchannels is to demonstrate their…
We present a theoretical study of multi-mode scattering of light by optically random media, using the Mueller-Stokes formalism which permits to encode all the polarization properties of the scattering medium in a real $4 \times 4$ matrix.…
We present a systematic formulation of scattering theory for nonlinear interactions in one dimension and develop a nonlinear generalization of the transfer matrix that has a composition property similar to its linear analog's. We offer…
The generalized Benjamin-Bona-Mahony equation (gBBM) is a model for nonlinear dispersive waves which, in the long-wave limit, is approximately equivalent to the generalized Korteweg-de Vries equation (gKdV). While the long-time behaviour of…
We study the diffusion of monochromatic classical waves in a disordered acoustic medium by scattering theory. In order to avoid artifacts associated with mathematical point scatterers, we model the randomness by small but finite insertions.…
Consider a sequence of masses $m_0,m_1,...$ arriving uniformly at random at some points $u_0,u_1,...$ on the unit circle $\mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z}$ (or on $\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}$, in the discrete version). Upon arrival, each mass undergoes a…
We give an exposure to diagrammatic techniques in waveguide QED systems. A particular emphasis is placed on the systems with delayed coherent quantum feedback. Specifically, we show that the $N$-photon scattering matrices in single-qubit…
The well-known diffusion theory describes propagation of light and electromagnetic waves in complex media. While diffusion theory is known to fail both for predominant forward scattering or strong absorption, its precise range of validity…
We consider the problem of quantum scattering of a localized wave packet by a weak Gaussian potential in two spatial dimensions. We show that, under certain conditions, this problem bears close analogy with that of focusing (or defocusing)…
This paper explores the connections between particle scattering and quantum information theory in the context of the non-relativistic, elastic scattering of two spin-1/2 particles. An untangled, pure, two-particle in-state is evolved by an…
