We consider a minimal fractional deformation of Newtonian gravity characterized by a single parameter $\alpha$. In the limit $\alpha \to 1$, the theory reduces to standard Newtonian gravity. Previous works showed that the $\Lambda$CDM…

In broadband quantum optical systems, nonlinear interactions among a large number of frequency components induce complex dynamics that may defy heuristic analysis. In this work we introduce a perturbative framework for factoring out…
This paper gives an overview of recent work on three-dimensional (3D) photonic crystals with a "full and complete" 3D photonic band gap. We review five main aspects: 1) spontaneous emission inhibition, 2) spatial localization of light…
The Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT) has been very successful in describing low-energy hadronic properties in the non-perturbative regime of Quantum Chromodynamics. The results of ChPT, many of which are currently under active experimental…
