In this paper we present a generalization of Poincar\'e's Rotation Theory of homeomorphisms of the circle to the case of one-dimensional compact abelian groups which are solenoidal groups, {\it i.e.}, groups which fiber over the circle with…
We consider generalized $\alpha$-attractor models whose scalar potentials are globally well-behaved and whose scalar manifolds are elementary hyperbolic surfaces. Beyond the Poincar\'e disk $\mathbb{D}$, such surfaces include the hyperbolic…
This paper presents a study of the Poincar\'e-Hough model of rotation of the synchronous natural satellites, in which these bodies are assumed to be composed of a rigid mantle and a triaxial cavity filled with inviscid fluid of constant…
We seek to characterize how the change of global rotation rate influences the overall dynamics and large scale flows arising in the convective envelopes of stars covering stellar spectral types from early G to late K. We do so through…
The tidal interaction of a Be star with a binary companion forms two spiral arms that cause orbital modulation of the Be disc structure. The aim of this work is to identify observables in which this modulation is apparent. The structure of…
We derive a continuum theory for the phase transition in a classical dimer model on the cubic lattice, observed in recent Monte Carlo simulations. Our derivation relies on the mapping from a three-dimensional classical problem to a…
The algebra su(2) is derived from two commuting quon algebras for which the parameter q is a root of unity. This leads to a polar decomposition of the shift operators of the group SU(2). The Wigner-Racah algebra of SU(2) is developed in a…
We present a method to characterize the polarization state of a light field in the continuous-variable regime. Instead of using the abstract formalism of SU(2) quasidistributions, we model polarization in the classical spirit by superposing…
We propose a q-deformation of the su(2)-invariant Schrodinger equation of a spinless particle in a central potential, which allows us not only to determine a deformed spectrum and the corresponding eigenstates, as in other approaches, but…
We investigate the most general N=1 graded extension of the Poincare algebra, and find the corresponding supersymmetry transformations and the associated superspaces. We find that the supersymmetry for which {Q,Q} = P is not special, and in…
The dynamics of modes and their states of polarizations in multimode fibers as a function of time, space, and wavelength are experimentally and theoretically investigated. The results reveal that the states of polarizations are displaced in…
The spontaneous polarization of epitaxial BaTiO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ superlattices is studied as a function of composition using first-principles density functional theory within the local density approximation. With the in-plane lattice parameter…
We investigate how the phase space structure of a 3D autonomous Hamiltonian system evolves across a series of successive 2D and 3D pitchfork and period-doubling bifurcations, as the transition of the parent families of periodic orbits (POs)…
The present work reports a general method for the calculation of t he polarizability of a truncated sphere on a substrate. A multipole ex pansion is used, where the multipoles are not necessarily localized in the center of the sphere but…
We provide a theoretical investigation of optical Poincar\'e beams that exhibit interwinding chiral polarized domains upon propagation. We employ both analytical and numerical methods in order to investigate this phenomenon. Specifically,…
Motivated by the absence of cooperative Jahn-Teller effect in LiNiO2 and BaVS3, two layered oxides with triangular planes, we study the SU(4) symmetric spin-orbital model on the triangular lattice. Upon reducing the next-nearest neighbour…
To interpret observations of astrophysical disks it is essential to understand the formation process of the emitted light. If the disk is optically thick, scattering dominated and permeated by a Keplerian velocity field, Non-Local…
We study higher form Proca equations on Einstein manifolds with boundary data along conformal infinity. We solve these Laplace-type boundary problems formally, and to all orders, by constructing an operator which projects arbitrary forms to…
Higher-order topological insulators (HOTIs) have attracted much attention in photonics due to the tightly localized disorder-robust corner and hinge states. Here, we reveal an unconventional HOTI phase with vanishing dipole and quadrupole…
A new duality is proposed in four-dimensional flat space, which exchanges between spin and orbital degrees of freedom. This is motivated by a Hodge decomposition of the angular-momentum bivector for massive fields, along which spin and…
