We present an {\it exact} quantum theory for the bound states in the vicinity of an edge or a line of impurities in a $d_{x^2-y^2}$ superconductor. For a (110)-surface we show that a finite dispersion of the one dimensional band of bound…

We investigate the properties of eigenstates and local density of states (LDOS) for a periodic 2D rippled billiard, focusing on their quantum-classical correspondence in energy representation. To construct the classical counterparts of LDOS…
An edge state is a time-harmonic solution of a conservative wave system, e.g. Schroedinger, Maxwell, which is propagating (plane-wave-like) parallel to, and localized transverse to, a line-defect or "edge". Topologically protected edge…
Ab initio calculations indicate that while the electronic states introduced by grain boundaries in graphene are only partially confined to the defect core, a domain boundary introduces states near the Fermi level that are very strongly…

The configuration manifold $M$ of a mechanical system consisting of two unconstrained rigid bodies in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\geq 1$, is a manifold with boundary (typically with singularities.) A complete description of the system requires…
We consider a 2D ballistic and quasi-ballistic structures with spin-orbit-related splitting of the electron spectrum. The ballistic region is attached to the leads with a voltage applied between them. We calculate the edge spin density…
We consider classical billiards in plane, connected, but not necessarily bounded domains. The charged billiard ball is immersed in a homogeneous, stationary magnetic field perpendicular to the plane. The part of dynamics which is not…
The difference between the edge on-site potential and the bulk values in a magnonic topological honeycomb lattice leads to the formation of edge states in a bearded boundary, and the same difference is found to be the responsible for the…
Mobility edge transitions from localized to extended states have been observed in two and three dimensional systems, for which sound theoretical explanations have also been derived. One-dimensional lattice models have failed to predict…
Edge states reveal the nontrivial topology of energy band in the bulk. As localized states at boundaries, many-body edge states may obey a special symmetry that is broken in the bulk. When local particle-particle interaction is induced,…

Unlike the well-known Mott's argument that extended and localized states should not coexist at the same energy in a generic random potential, we provide an example of a nearest-neighbor tight-binding disordered model which carries both…
