We study a class of periodic Schr\"odinger operators, which in distinguished cases can be proved to have linear band-crossings or "Dirac points". We then show that the introduction of an "edge", via adiabatic modulation of these periodic…
We prove the convergence in certain weighted spaces in momentum space of eigenfunctions of H = T-lambda*V as the energy goes to an energy threshold. We do this for three choices of kinetic energy T, namely the non-relativistic Schr"odinger…
We show that eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on certain non-compact domains with finite area may localize at infinity--provided there is no extreme level clustering--and thus rule out quantum unique ergodicity for such systems. The…
For sequences of quantum ergodic eigenfunctions, we define the quantum flux norm associated to a codimension $1$ submanifold $\Sigma$ of a non-degenerate energy surface. We prove restrictions of eigenfunctions to $\Sigma$, realized using…

The stationary points of the potential energy function V are studied for the \phi^4 model on a two-dimensional square lattice with nearest-neighbor interactions. On the basis of analytical and numerical results, we explore the relation of…
In classical thermodynamics energy always flows from the hotter system to the colder one. However, if these systems are initially correlated, the energy flow can reverse, making the cold system colder and the hot system hotter. This…
