Quantum-chaotic systems exhibit several universal properties, ranging from level repulsion in the energy spectrum to wavefunction delocalization. On the other hand, if wavefunctions are localized, the levels exhibit no level repulsion and…

Atmospheric flows exhibit fluctuations of all scales (space -time) ranging from turbulence (millimeters-seconds) to climate (thousands of kilometers-years). The apparently random fluctuations however exhibit long-range spatio-temporal…

Universal scaling near phase transitions is one of the central ideas of physics, linking the growth of spatial correlations to the slowing down of dynamics. So far, direct experimental access to this critical behavior has remained largely…
Let $f \in L^{2}(\mathbb{R}^n)$ and suppose we are interested in computing its average at a fixed scale. This is easy: we pick the density $u_{}$ of a probability distribution with mean 0 and some moment at the desired scale and compute the…
