We study the tunneling into the edge of the Luttinger liquid with periodically modulated concentration of electrons. It is shown that the modulation,by causing a gap in the spectrum of plasmons, leads to an additional anomaly in the density…

In the absence of external excitation, light trapped within a dielectric medium generally decays by leaking out (and also by getting absorbed within the medium). We analyze the leaky modes of a parallel-plate slab, a solid glass sphere, and…

The field-theoretical description of quantum fluctuations on the background of a tunneling field $\sigma$ is revisited in the case of a functional Schrodinger approach. We apply this method in the case when quantum fluctuations are coupled…
