We study the problem of wave transport in a one-dimensional disordered system, where the scatterers of the chain are $n$ barriers and wells with statistically independent intensities and with a spatial extension $\l_c$ which may contain an…
We study the conductance properties of a straight two-dimensional electron waveguide with an s-like scatterer modeled by a single delta-function potential with a finite number of modes. Even such a simple system exhibits interesting…
When materials are in the diffusive regime, i.e. when the scattering length is less than the sample size, charge transport is mediated by diffusons and cooperons. We argue that these charge carriers are not always spread out throughout the…
We consider the scattering matrix approach to quantum electron transport in meso- and nano-conductors. This approach is an alternative to the more conventional kinetic equation and Green's function approaches, and often is more efficient…
We study the scattering of torsional waves through a quasi-one-dimensional cavity both, from the experimental and theoretical points of view. The experiment consists of an elastic rod with square cross section. In order to form a cavity, a…
The Chalker-Coddington network model (introduced originally as a model for percolation in the quantum Hall effect) is known to map onto the two-dimensional Dirac equation. Here we show how the network model can be used to solve a scattering…
Using the random matrix theory, we investigate the ensemble statistics of edge transport of a quantum spin Hall insulator with multiple edge states in the presence of quenched disorder. Dorokhov-Mello-Pereyra-Kumar equation applicable for…

By a computer simulation approach we study the scattering of $p$- or $s$-polarized light from a two-dimensional, randomly rough, perfectly conducting surface. The pair of coupled inhomogeneous integral equations for two independent…

We review recent results on the anomalous transport in one-dimensional and quasi-one-dimensional systems with bulk and surface disorder. Main attention is paid to the role of long-range correlations in random potentials for the bulk…
Molecular communications is a promising framework for the design of controlled-release drug delivery systems. In this framework, drug carriers are modeled as transmitters, the diseased cells as absorbing receivers, and the channel between…
This is the second in the series of papers on transport phenomena along random rough surfaces. We apply our simple general approach\cite{r1} to transport in very narrow channels, when the particles wavelength is comparable to the width of…
The study explores perpendicular transport through macroscopically inhomogeneous three-dimensional disordered conductors using mesoscopic methods (real-space Green function technique in a two-probe measuring geometry). The nanoscale samples…
Using the transfer matrix technique, we investigate the propagation of electron through a two dimensional disordered sample. We find that the spatial distribution of electrons is homogeneous only in the limit of weak disorder (diffusive…
Waves propagate through disordered systems in a variety of regimes. There is a threshold of disorder beyond which waves become localized and transport becomes restricted. The intensity I of the wave transmitted through a system has a…
Contrary to praxis, we provide an analytical expression, for a physical locally periodic structure, of the average $\langle S\rangle$ of the scattering matrix, called optical $S$ matrix in the nuclear physics jargon, and fundamentally…
The $s-$wave meson-baryon scattering amplitude is analyzed for the strangeness $S=-1$ and isospin I=0 sector in a Bethe-Salpeter coupled channel formalism incorporating Chiral Symmetry. Four two-body channels have been considered: $\bar K…
