When a d-dimensional quantum system is subjected to a periodic drive, it may be treated as a (d+1)-dimensional system, where the extra dimension is a synthetic one. In this work, we take these ideas to the next level by showing that…
One of the crucial properties of a quantum system is the existence of bound states. While the existence of eigenvalues below zero, i.e., below the essential spectrum, is well understood, the situation of zero energy bound states at the edge…
In this paper, we systematically investigate the impurity-induced bound states in 1D non-Hermitian systems. By establishing an exact relationship between impurity potential and bound-state energy, we determine the minimum impurity potential…
Bound states in the continuum (BICs) are generally considered unusual phenomena. In this work, we provide a method to analyze the spatial structure of particle's bound states in the presence of a minimal length, which can be used to find…
Anderson localization is a famous wave phenomenon that describes the absence of diffusion of waves in a disordered medium. Here we generalize the landscape theory of Anderson localization to general elliptic operators and complex boundary…
The density of states of a three dimensional Dirac equation with a random potential as well as in other problems of quantum motion in a random potential placed in sufficiently high spatial dimensionality appears to be singular at a certain…
Complex structures can only form in a universe that allows for bound states. While this is clearly observed in three-dimensions, added degrees of freedom in a higher-dimensional space preclude the immediate assumption that binding…

We study the effect of the boundary on a system of weakly interacting bosons in one dimension. It strongly influences the boson density which is completely suppressed at the boundary position. Away from it, the density is depleted over the…
Single particle localization of an ultra-cold atom is studied in one dimension when the atom is confined by an optical lattice and by the incommensurate potential of a high-finesse optical cavity. In the strong coupling regime the atom is a…

Complex forms of quantum entanglement can arise in two qualitatively different ways; either between many qubits or between two particles with higher-than-qubit dimension. While the many-qubit frontier and the high-dimension frontier both…
A simple formalism for exploring quantum scattering and possible bound states in an arbitrary symmetric and localized potential in a unified way is presented. The symmetric square barrier and well potentials are used for illustrating the…
The BOUND program calculates the bound states of a complex formed from two interacting particles using coupled-channel methods. It is particularly suitable for the bound states of atom-molecule and molecule-molecule Van der Waals complexes…
Macro properties of cold atomic gases are driven by few-body correlations, even if the gas has thousands of particles. Quantum systems composed of two and three particles with attractive zero\=/range pairwise interactions are considered for…
Starting with a quantum particle on a closed manifold without boundary, we consider the process of generating boundaries by modding out by a group action with fixed points, and we study the emergent quantum dynamics on the quotient…

A model of bound state formation from the delocalized edge states of 2D topological insulator is derived by considering the effects of magnetic barriers attached to the edge of the HgTe/CdTe quantum well. The resulting structure has a…

We study quantum effects induced by a point-like object that imposes Dirichlet boundary conditions along its world-line, on a real scalar field $\varphi$ in 1, 2 and 3 spatial dimensions. The boundary conditions result from the strong…
