A wave function can be written in the form of {\psi} = ReiS/h. We put this form of wave function into quantum mechanics equations and take hydrodynamic limit, i. e., let Planck constant be zero. Then equations of motion (EOM) describing the…

We investigate the zeros of two one-parameter families of harmonic functions and describe how the number of zeros depends on the parameter. Our functions have the property that all zeros lie on certain rays in the complex plane and thus we…

This work deals with the overdamped motion of a particle in a fluctuating one-dimensional periodic potential. If the potential has no inversion symmetry and its fluctuations are asymmetric and correlated in time, a net flow can be generated…
