Quantum systems can show qualitatively new forms of behavior when they are driven by fast time-periodic modulations. In the limit of large driving frequency, the long-time dynamics of such systems can often be described by a…
In N-body simulations of collisionless stellar systems, the forces are softened to reduce the shot noise. Softening modifies gravity at r=|x-y| smaller than softening length epsilon and the softened forces are increasingly biased for ever…

The application of a random modulation of a system parameter usually increases decoherence effects. Here we show how, employing an appropriate stochastic modulation, it is instead possible to preserve the quantum coherence of a system.
We numerically explore the behavior of repelling and aligning self-propelled polar particles (boids) in 2D enclosed by a damped flexible and elastic loop-shaped boundary. We observe disordered, polar ordered (or jammed) and circulating…
