It is shown that in a double-cavity, two-dimensional electron waveguide, the interplay between quasi-bound states of each cavity leads to the appearance of bound states in continuum for certain distances between the cavities. These bound…
New types of self-similar states are found in quasiperiodic systems characterized by topological invariants-- the Chern numbers. We show that the topology introduces a competing length in the self-similar band edge states transforming peaks…
We explore the edge flows that emerge at boundaries in nonequilibrium passive and active chiral colloidal fluids. We show that these complex interface currents obey an equation of state that relates their fluxes to bulk observables. For…
