In this article, we study the relationship between the weak limit of a sequence of integral currents in a metric space and the possible Hausdorff limit of the sequence of supports. Due to cancellation, the weak limit is in general supported…
A short quasi-monochromatic wave packet incident on a semi-infinite disordered medium gives rise to a reflected wave. The intensity of the latter decays as a power law $1/t^{\alpha}$ in the long-time limit. Using the one-dimensional…
When time-reversal symmetry is broken, the average conductance through a chaotic cavity, from an entrance lead with $N_1$ open channels to an exit lead with $N_2$ open channels, is given by $N_1N_2/M$, where $M=N_1+N_2$. We show that, when…
