For Anderson localization on the Cayley tree, we study the statistics of various observables as a function of the disorder strength $W$ and the number $N$ of generations. We first consider the Landauer transmission $T_N$. In the localized…

We derive the full spectrum of decorated Cayley trees that constitute tree analogs of selected two-dimensional Euclidean lattices; namely of the Lieb, the double Lieb, the kagome, and the star lattice. The common feature of these Euclidean…

We describe a simple adaptive network of coupled chaotic maps. The network reaches a stationary state (frozen topology) for all values of the coupling parameter, although the dynamics of the maps at the nodes of the network can be…
