The Gunn effect consists of time-periodic oscillations of the current flowing through an external purely resistive circuit mediated by solitary wave dynamics of the electric field on an attached appropriate semiconductor. By means of a new…
We present an asymptotic analysis of the Gunn effect in a drift-diffusion model---including electric-field-dependent generation-recombination processes---for long samples of strongly compensated p-type Ge at low temperature and under dc…

It is rigorously proved that quasilinear impulsive systems possess unpredictable solutions when a perturbation generated by an unpredictable sequence is applied. The existence, uniqueness, as well as asymptotic stability of such solutions…
A general formulation of boundary conditions for semiconductor-metal contacts follows from a phenomenological procedure sketched here. The resulting boundary conditions, which incorporate only physically well-defined parameters, are used to…
We derive an asymptotic solution of the Einstein field equations which describes the propagation of a thin, large amplitude gravitational wave into a curved space-time. The resulting equations have the same form as the colliding plane wave…

The Kroemer model for the Gunn effect in a circular geometry (Corbino disks) has been numerically solved. The results have been interpreted by means of asymptotic calculations. Above a certain onset dc voltage bias, axisymmetric pulses of…

Black holes and gravitational waves are consequences of the nonlinear character of the Einstein equations. Yet, the remarkable properties of General Relativity point to the existence of other effects. Here we uncover new nonlinear facets of…

For gauge field propagators, the asymptotic behavior is obtained in all directions of the complex $k^2$-plane, and for general, linear, covariant gauges. Asymptotically free theories are considered. Except for coefficients, the functional…
In this work, we investigate time-dependent wave scattering by multiple small particles of arbitrary shape. To approximate the solution of the associated boundary-value problem, we derive an asymptotic model that is valid in the limit as…
We consider waves propagating in a randomly layered medium with long-range correlations. An example of such a medium is studied in \citeMS and leads, in particular, to an asymptotic travel time described in terms of a fractional Brownian…
We consider a single spin in a constant magnetic field or an anisotropy field. We show that additional external time-periodic fields with zero mean may generate nonzero time-averaged spin components which are vanishing for the time-averaged…
An interesting question is to characterize the general class of allowed boundary conditions for gauge theories, including gravity, at spatial and null infinity. This has played a role in discussions of soft charges, where antipodal symmetry…

The behavior of massive quantum fields in the general plane wave spacetime and external, non-plane, electromagnetic waves is studied. The asymptotic conditions, the "in" ("out") states and the cross sections are analysed. It is observed…
We develop the theory of transformation of intensive initial nonlinear wave pulses to trains of solitons emerging at asymptotically large time of evolution. Our approach is based on the theory of dispersive shock waves in which the number…
