This paper describes how one can use four standing wave laser fields to realize a two dimensional optical quasicrystal with eight-fold symmetry, closely related to the well-known octagonal or Ammann-Beenker tiling quasicrystal. We describe…
We study tunneling through a resonant level connected to two dissipative bosonic baths: one is the resistive environment of the source and drain leads, while the second comes from coupling to potential fluctuations on a resistive gate. We…
Domain wall networks on the surface of a soliton are studied in a simple theory. It consists of two complex scalar fields, in (3+1)-dimensions, with a global U(1) x Z_n symmetry, where n>2. Solutions are computed numerically in which one of…
From butterfly wings to remnants of nuclear detonation, aperiodic order repeatedly emerges in nature, often exhibiting reduced sensitivity to boundaries and symmetry constraints. Inspired by this principle, a paradigm shift is introduced in…
Electronic states in quasiperiodic crystals generally preclude a Bloch description, rendering them simultaneously fascinating and enigmatic. Owing to their complexity and relative scarcity, quasiperiodic crystals are underexplored relative…
