We study, analytically and numerically, a simple $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric tight-binding ring with an onsite energy $a$ at the gain and loss sites. We show that if $a\neq 0$, the system generically exhibits an unbroken…
Topological defects in low-dimensional non-linear systems feature a sliding-to-pinning transition of relevance for a variety of research fields, ranging from biophysics to nano- and solid-state physics. We find that the dynamics after a…

We consider a discrete, non-Hermitian random matrix model, which can be expressed as a shift of a rank-one perturbation of an anti-symmetric matrix. We show that, asymptotically almost surely, the real parts of the eigenvalues of the…
We study equivariant families of discrete Hamiltonians on amenable geometries and their integrated density of states (IDS). We prove that the eigenspace of a fixed energy is spanned by eigenfunctions with compact support. The size of a jump…
Dynamical systems whose symplectic structure degenerates, becoming noninvertible at some points along the orbits are analyzed. It is shown that for systems with a finite number of degrees of freedom, like in classical mechanics, the…
From density functional calculations, we show that localized states stemming from defects or topological disorder exhibit an anomalously large electron-phonon coupling. We provide a simple analysis to explain the observation and perform a…
Coupled excitonic structures are found in natural and artificial light harvesting systems where optical transitions link different excitation manifolds. In systems with symmetry, some optical transitions are allowed, while others are…
We consider N interacting quantum particles on a one-dimensional lattice, and subjected to an external linear potential. For N = 1, the corresponding Hamiltonian is explicitly diagonalizable, with superexponentially localized eigenstates.…
The degeneracy and spatial support of pseudo-Landau levels (pLLs) in strained honeycomb lattices systematically depends on the geometry -- for instance, in hexagonal and rectangular flakes the 0th pLL displays a twofold increased…
While Anderson localisation is largely well-understood, its description has traditionally been rather cumbersome. A recently-developed theory -- Localisation Landscape Theory (LLT) -- has unparalleled strengths and advantages, both…

We study the response of an isolated quantum system governed by the Hamiltonian drawn from the Gaussian Rosenzweig-Porter random matrix ensemble to a perturbation controlled by a small parameter. We focus on the density of states, local…
An eigenstate decoherence hypothesis states that each individual eigenstate of a large closed system is locally classical-like. We extend this hypothesis to account for a typically extremely short time scale of decoherence. The extension…
