Nonlinear diffusion is studied in the presence of multiplicative noise. The nonlinearity can be viewed as a ``wall'' limiting the motion of the diffusing field. A dynamic phase transition occurs when the system ``unbinds'' from the wall.…

Deterministically aperiodic sequences are an intermediary between periodic sequences and completely random sequences. Materials which are translationally periodic have Bloch-like extended states, while random media exhibit Anderson…
In many natural and artificial devices diffusive transport takes place in confined geometries with corrugated boundaries. Such boundaries cause both entropic and hydrodynamic effects, which have been studied only for the case of spherical…
We follow the dynamics of nonlinear waves in two-dimensional disordered lattices with tunable nonlinearity. In the absence of nonlinear terms Anderson localization traps the packet in space. For the nonlinear case a destruction of Anderson…
We examine the spatial distribution of electrons generated by a fixed energy point source in uniform, parallel electric and magnetic fields. This problem is simple enough to permit analytic quantum and semiclassical solution, and it harbors…
