We introduce a new method for reducing phase noise in oscillators, thereby improving their frequency precision. The noise reduction device consists of a pair of coupled nonlinear resonating elements that are driven parametrically by the…
The dielectric response of materials underpins electronics and photonics. Established semiconductor materials have a narrow range of dielectric susceptibility, with low-frequency values on the order of 10. Strong and variable dielectric…
Subradiance is a phenomenon where coupled emitters radiate light at a slower rate than independent ones. While its observation was first reported in disordered cold atom clouds, ordered subwavelength arrays of emitters have emerged as…
The heavy and superheavy elements of the periodic table predominately disintegrate by {\alpha}-decay, facilitating transitions mainly between ground states and occasionally involving isomeric states. This study focuses on estimating the…
The two-dimensional hydrogen-like atom in a constant magnetic field is considered. It is found that this is actually two separate problems. One for which the magnetic field causes an effective attraction between the nucleus and the electron…
We consider partially ordered sets of combinatorial structures under consecutive orders, meaning that two structures are related when one embeds in the other such that `consecutive' elements remain consecutive in the image. Given such a…
In this paper we address the characterization of the structure of condensed materials, periodic and non-periodic. Carrying out an extensive study of over 7000 different groundstate structures of a 2D lattice model of binary packing, we find…
In 2008, researchers at the Hewlett-Packard (HP) laboratories claimed to have found an analytical physical model for a genuine memristor device [1]. The model is considered for a thin TiO_2 film containing a region which is highly…
The Kepler mission has discovered a plethora of multiple transiting planet candidate exosystems, many of which feature putative pairs of planets near mean motion resonance commensurabilities. Identifying potentially resonant systems could…
Can we change the average state of a resistor by simply applying white noise? We show that the answer to this question is positive if the resistor has memory of its past dynamics (a memristive system). We also prove that, if the memory…
Effective-medium theories for electromagnetic constitutive parameters of particulate composite materials are theories of averages. Standard deviations are absent because of the lack of rigorous theories. But ensemble averages and standard…

A phase diagram for a 2D metal with variable carrier density has been derived. It consists of a normal phase, where the order parameter is absent; a so-called ``abnormal normal'' phase where this parameter is also absent but the mean number…
Taking into account Goodenough's superexchange rules, including both full structural relaxation and spin-orbit coupling, and checking strong correlation effects, we look for compensated half metals within the class of oxide double…
A broad array of interstellar absorption features that appear in the ultraviolet spectra of bright sources allows us to measure the abundances and ionization states of many important heavy elements that exist as free atoms in the…
An element $x$ in a finite group $G$ is said to be \textit{vanishing} if some (complex) irreducible character of $G$ takes value $0$ at $x$. In this article, we prove that every non-abelian finite simple group, except $\mathrm{SL}_2(4)$ and…
The stochastic resonance phenomenon has been studied experimentally and theoretically for a state-of-art metal-oxide memristive device based on yttria-stabilized zirconium dioxide and tantalum pentoxide, which exhibits bipolar filamentary…
It is shown that virtually all nonlinear and/or time-varying loads that generate harmonic current distortion can be characterized in terms of so-called higher-order circuit elements. The most relevant higher-order elements exploited in this…
Recent progress in the understanding of the collective behavior of electrons and ions have revealed new types of ferroic orders beyond ferroelectricity and ferromagnetism, such as the ferroaxial state. The latter retains only rotational…
We have extended the formalism for the two-neutrino double beta decay by including the weak-magnetism term, as well as other second-forbidden corrections. The weak magnetism diminishes the calculated half-lives in $\sim 10%$, independently…
