We consider a system of two discrete quasiperiodic 1D particles as an operator on $\ell^2(\mathbb Z^2)$ and establish Anderson localization at large disorder, assuming the potential has no cosine-type symmetries. In the presence of…

We study non-interacting systems with a power-law quasiparticle dispersion $\xi_{\bf k}\propto k^\alpha$ and a random short-range-correlated potential. We show that, unlike the case of lower dimensions, for $d>2\alpha$ there exists a…

We investigate the motion of a single particle moving on a two-dimensional square lattice whose sites are occupied by right and left rotators. These left and right rotators deterministically rotate the particle's velocity to the right or…

The scaling invariance for chaotic orbits near a transition from unlimited to limited diffusion in a dissipative standard mapping is explained via the analytical solution of the diffusion equation. It gives the probability of observing a…
In disordered systems, our present understanding of the Anderson transition is hampered by the possible presence of interactions between particles. We demonstrate that in boson gases, even weak interactions deeply alter the very nature of…
Scattering in central attractive potentials is investigated systematically, in the limit of strong interaction, when large-angles scattering dominates. In particular, three important model interactions (Lennard-Jones, Yukawa, and…
