In time reversal acoustics experiments, a signal is emitted from a localized source, recorded at an array of receivers-transducers, time reversed, and finally re-emitted into the medium. A celebrated feature of time reversal experiments is…

It is proven, without using the microscopic reversibility argument of Onsager, that lossy reciprocal systems have a hidden time-reversal symmetry. The key idea is that the dissipation channels of lossy dielectrics can be mimicked by a…

We propose a method to establish time reversal symmetry violation at future neutrino oscillation experiments in a largely model-independent way. We introduce a general parametrization of flavour transition probabilities which holds under…

We discuss inverse problems of determining the time-dependent source coefficient for a general class of subelliptic heat equations. We show that a single data at an observation point guarantees the existence of a (smooth) solution pair for…

In this paper, we investigate the direct and linear inverse problems of identifying time-dependent and time-independent source terms in a time-fractional diffusion-wave equation, using measured data at an interior point of the time…

Modern approaches to causal modeling give a central role to interventions, which require the active input of an observer and introduces an explicit `causal arrow of time'. Causal models typically adopt a mechanistic interpretation,…

We consider a partial data inverse problem for a time-dependent convection-diffusion equation on an admissible manifold. We prove that the time-dependent convection term and time-dependent density can be recovered uniquely modulo a known…

Employing an arbitrary velocity gauge transformation this contribution argues that the breaking of time symmetry is a natural consequence of irreversibility.

This paper considers the inverse problem of recovering state-dependent source terms in a reaction-diffusion system from overposed data consisting of the values of the state variables either at a fixed finite time (census-type data) or a…

Driven-dissipative quantum systems generically do not satisfy simple notions of detailed balance based on the time symmetry of correlation functions. We show that such systems can nonetheless exhibit a hidden time-reversal symmetry which…

Time reversal symmetry occupies a distinctive role in quantum mechanics, fundamentally requiring an anti-unitary operator to ensure a physically consistent representation. As such, the time reversal operator combines a unitary…

Superconductivity and magnetism are antagonistic states of matter. The presence of spontaneous magnetic fields inside the superconducting state is, therefore, an intriguing phenomenon prompting extensive experimental and theoretical…

In an Anderson localized system, a quantum particle with a nonzero initial velocity returns, on average, to its origin. This recently discovered behavior is known as the quantum boomerang effect. Time reversal invariance was initially…
