We consider random Schr\"odinger equations on $\bZ^d$ for $d\ge 3$ with identically distributed random potential. Denote by $\lambda$ the coupling constant and $\psi_t$ the solution with initial data $\psi_0$. The space and time variables…

We calculate the differential cross section of polarized light scattering from a cold and dense atomic ensemble. The regularities in the transformation of the cross section when increasing the size of the atomic ensemble are analyzed…

Laplace's first law of errors, which states that the frequency of an error can be represented as an exponential function of the error magnitude, was overlooked for many decades but was recently shown to describe the statistical behavior of…

In this letter we present numerical and experimental results on the scaling properties of velocity turbulent fields in the range of scales where viscous effects are acting. A generalized version of Extended Self Similarity capable of…

Diffusion coefficients are obtained from linear response functions and from the quantal fluctuation dissipation theorem. They are compared with the results of both the theory of hydrodynamic fluctuations by Landau and Lifschitz as well as…

We derive the exact relation for the energy transfer in three-dimensional compressible two-fluid plasma turbulence. In the long-time limit, we obtain an exact law which expresses the scale-to-scale average energy flux rate in terms of two…

We apply the Principle of Maximum Entropy to the study of a general class of deterministic fractal sets. The scaling laws peculiar to these objects are accounted for by means of a constraint concerning the average content of information in…

The experiments of Leptos et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 103, 198103 (2009)] show that the displacements of small particles affected by swimming microorganisms achieve a non-Gaussian distribution, which nevertheless scales diffusively -- the…

In [arXiv:1404.1461], Yan and Minnhagen argue that the scaling law for the text-length dependence of word-frequency distributions proposed in [New J. Phys. 15 093033, arXiv:1303.0705] is "fundamentally incorrect" and "fundamentally…

We investigate energy diffusion in long-range interacting spin systems, where the interaction decays algebraically as $V(r) \propto r^{-\alpha}$ with the distance $r$ between the sites. We consider prototypical spin systems, the transverse…

Diffusive transport is characterized by the scaling law $(length)^{2}\propto(time)$. In this letter we show that this relationship is significantly altered in curved analogue spacetimes. This circumstance provides an opportunity to tailor…

We analyze the waiting time distribution of time distances $\tau$ between two nearest-neighbor flares. This analysis is based on the joint use of two distinct techniques. The first is the direct evaluation of the distribution function…

In rapidly rotating turbulence (Rossby number much less than unity), the standard mixing length theory for turbulent convection breaks and Coriolis force enters the force balance such that magnetic field eventually depends on rotation. By…

Diffusion-a measure of dynamics, and entropy-a measure of disorder in the system, are found to be intimately correlated in many systems, and the correlation is often strongly non-linear. We explore the origin of this complex dependence by…

A simple scaling theory for the sintering of fractal aerogels is presented. The densification at small scales is described by an increase of the lower cut-off length $a$ accompanied by a decrease of the upper cut-off length $\xi$, in order…

We show, that the theoretical expression for the dispersion of collective excitations reported in [Phys. Rev. B {\bf 103}, 099901 (2021)], at variance with what was claimed in the paper, does not account for the energy fluctuations and does…
