In this paper, we embark on a captivating exploration of the stabilization of locally transmitted problems within the realm of two interconnected wave systems. To begin, we wield the formidable Arendt-Batty criteria\cite{AW} to affirm the…
In this paper we present a computer simulation of a random walk (RW) for diffusion on a rearranging lattice. The lattice consists of two types of sites -- one good conducting (type 1) and the other poor conducting (type 2), distributed at…
Coherent wave propagation in random media results in a characteristic speckle pattern, with spatial intensity correlations with short-range and long-range behavior. Here, we show how the speckle correlation function can be obtained from a…

In systems that exhibit a bistability between nonlinear traveling waves and the basic state, pairs of fronts connecting these two states can form localized wave pulses whose stability depends on the interaction between the fronts. We…
We investigated the effect of time delays on phase configurations in a set of two-dimensional coupled phase oscillators. Each oscillator is allowed to interact with its neighbors located within a finite radius, which serves as a control…

We introduce a mechanism that can both hold and amplify electromagnetic waves by rapidly changing the permittivity of the medium during the wave travel from a positive to a dispersionless (i.e. non-Foster) negative value and then back…
Localization of wavefunctions is arguably the most familiar effect of disorder in quantum systems. It has been recently argued [[V. Khemani, R. Nandkishore, and S. L. Sondhi, Nature Physics, 11, 560 (2015)] that, contrary to naive…
We describe non-conventional localization of the midband E=0 state in square and cubic finite bipartite lattices with off-diagonal disorder by solving numerically the linear equations for the corresponding amplitudes. This state is shown to…
We study quadrupole and monopole core polarization using harmonic oscillator wave funtions but with different length parameters for the valence particle as compared to the core. We use perturbation theory with a delta interaction. The…
Common belief, confirmed by existing experiments, is that arbitrarily weak disorder should lead to spatial localization of eigenmodes of scalar wave equations when wave propagation is two-dimensional (2D). We predict that contrary to this…
Experimental evidence demonstrating that anomalous localization of waves can be induced in a controllable manner is reported. A microwave waveguide with dielectric slabs randomly placed is used to confirm the presence of anomalous…
Propagation of high amplitude acoustic pulses is studied in a 1D waveguide connected to a lattice of Helmholtz resonators. An homogenized model has been proposed by Sugimoto (J. Fluid. Mech., \textbf{244} (1992)), taking into account both…

We show that truncated rotating square waveguide arrays support new types of localized modes that exist even in the linear case, in complete contrast to localized excitations in nonrotating arrays requiring nonlinearity for their existence…
