We propose a quantum system in which the winding number of rotations of a particle around a ring can be monitored and emerges as a physical observable. We explicitly analyze the situation when, as a result of the monitoring of the winding…
We discuss the {\it nonlinear stability} of phase-locked states for globally coupled nonlinear oscillators with finite inertia, namely the modified Kuramoto model, in the context of the robust $\ell^{\infty}$-norm. We show that some classes…
In the seminal works from Santos and Gozalo [Europhys. Lett. $\mathbf{45}$, 418 (1999)] and Marletto and Vedral [Phys. Rev. Lett. $\mathbf{125}$, 040401 (2020)], it is shown how the Aharonov-Bohm effect can be described as the result of an…
The paper deals with the integral equation approach to steady kinematic dynamo models in finite domains based on Biot-Savart's law. The role of the electric potential at the boundary is worked out explicitly. As an example, a modified…
The Fano effect, which occurs through the quantum-mechanical cooperation between resonance and interference, can be observed in electron transport through a hybrid system of a quantum dot and an Aharonov-Bohm ring. While a clear correlation…
A state in quantum mechanics is defined as a positive operator of norm 1. For finite systems, this may be thought of as a positive matrix of trace 1. This constraint of positivity imposes severe restrictions on the allowed evolution of such…
We study the existence of bound states in the continuum for a system of n two-level quantum emitters, coupled with a one-dimensional boson field, in which a single excitation is shared among different components of the system. The emitters…
The perturbation theory expansion of the Aharonov-Bohm scattering amplitude has previously been studied in the context of quantum mechanics for spin zero and spin-1/2 particles as well in Galilean covariant field theory. This problem is…
We generalize the Kuramoto model for the synchronization transition of globally coupled phase oscillators to populations by incorporating an additional heterogeneity with the coupling strength, where each oscillator pair interacts with…
Electromagnetic duality between the Aharonov-Bohm and the Aharonov-Casher quantum mechanical phases predicts the existence of a new collective state of matter which can be regarded as a spin dual to the fractional quantum Hall effect. The…
We consider the magnetic flux in a quantum mechanical superposition of two values and find that the Aharonov-Bohm effect interference pattern contains information about the nature of the superposition, allowing information about the state…

The Aharonov-Bohm effect is the prime example of a zero-field-strength configuration where a non-trivial vector potential acquires physical significance, a typical quantum mechanical effect. We consider an extension of the traditional A-B…

We analyze the results obtained from a model consisting of the interaction etween the electric quadrupole moment of a moving particle and an electric field. We argue that the system does not support bound states because the motion along the…
In the present Note it is suggested that there should be a certain complementarity of phases between Aharonov-Bohm (AB) solenoid phase calculation on one part of the system and a phase calculation about another part of the physical system.…
