Very recently, Junk [11] showed that for directed polymers in bounded random environments, the weak disorder (uniform integrable) phase implies that the polymer martingale is bounded in $L^p$ for some $p>1$ and also in $L^q$ for some $q<0$.…
Periodically driven systems, also known as Floquet systems, can realize symmetry protected topological (SPT) phases that cannot be found in equilibrium. Here, we seek to understand the effects of strong disorder on such SPT phases, working…
We discuss the ground state of a disordered two dimensional Heisenberg antiferromagnet. The starting structure is taken to be a perfectly deterministic quasiperiodic tiling, and the type of disorder we consider is geometric, involving…
We study the effect of disorder on the particle density evolution in a classical Hamiltonian driven lattice setup. If the disorder is localized within a finite sub-domain of the lattice, the emergence of strong tails in the density…
Electronic Raman scattering measures a polarization-dependent scattering intensity which can provide information about the location of nodes in the energy gap of an unconventional superconductor as well as its overall symmetry. In this…
We introduce a new disorder regime for directed polymers in dimension $1+1$ that sits between the weak and strong disorder regimes. We call it the intermediate disorder regime. It is accessed by scaling the inverse temperature parameter…
This article aims to study the linear and nonlinear optical response of inversion symmetric graphene quantum dots (GQDs) in the presence of on-site disorder or vacancies. The presence of disorder or vacancy breaks the special inversion…

Large exciton diffusion lengths generally improve the performance of organic semiconductor devices, since they enable energy to be transported farther during the exciton lifetime. However, the physics of exciton motion in disordered organic…

The emergence of states with long-range correlations in a disordered landscape is rare, as disorder typically suppresses the particle mobility required for long-range coherence. But when more than two energy levels are available per site,…
