This paper considers continuously differentiable functions of two vector variables that have (possibly a continuum of) min-max saddle points. We study the asymptotic convergence properties of the associated saddle-point dynamics…
We find the noise sensitivities (i.e., the quadratic terms of the energy with respect to the perturbation of the noise) of a particle shuttled by an optical lattice that moves according to a shortcut-to-adiabaticity transport protocol.…
Recent works have suggested that the no-boundary proposal should be defined as a sum over regular, not necessarily compact, metrics. We show that such a prescription can be implemented in the presence of a scalar field. For concreteness, we…
We consider "unphysical", kinematic observables that do not commute with the constraints of a gauge system in the context of an extension of the system. We show that these observables, while not predictable, can nevertheless be said to have…
Anomalous resonances in properly shaped plasmonic nanostructures can in principle lead to infinite absorption/gain efficiencies over broad bandwidths. By developing a closed-form analytical solution for the fields scattered by conjoined…
According to the kinematic theory of nonhelical dynamo action the magnetic energy spectrum increases with wavenumber and peaks at the resistive cutoff wavenumber. It has previously been argued that even in the dynamical case the magnetic…
In non-Hermitian crystal systems under open boundary condition (OBC), it is generally believed that the OBC modes with frequencies containing positive imaginary parts, when excited by external driving, will experience exponential growth in…
The Casimir-Polder interaction energy between a unipolarizable point atom and a unipolarizable dielectric ring has been limited, until now, to the case when the atom is confined on the axis of symmetry of the ring. We find the generalized…
The recent high-energy QCD equations including the effects of fluctuations are solved numerically. We discuss their asymptotic properties and compare them with the corresponding behaviour without fluctuations as well as with the…

We establish lower semi-continuity and strict convexity of the energy functionals for a large class of vector equilibrium problems in logarithmic potential theory. This in particular implies the existence and uniqueness of a minimizer for…
We investigate the quantum dynamics of a levitated nanoparticle in a structured light rotating saddle-like optical potential consisting of a superposition of Gaussian and Laguerre-Gauss modes with detuned frequencies. This rotating saddle…
The interaction of a nonrelativistic charged particle beam, travelling parallel to the surface of a sharp-edged dielectric wedge is analyzed. The general expressions for excitation probability are obtained for a beam moving along the…
Polyatomic molecules have been identified as sensitive probes of charge-parity violating and parity-violating physics beyond the Standard Model (BSM). For example, many linear triatomic molecules are both laser-coolable and have parity…
Ultracold quasineutral plasmas generated in the laboratory are generically inhomogeneous and ex- hibit small charge imbalances. As will be demonstrated, via a hydrodynamic theory as well as microscopic simulations, the latter lead to…
The present paper is devoted to consideration and discussion of a number of contradictions that take place in fundamental electrodynamics researches. A concept of the scalar-vector potential is introduced that allows us to avoid a number of…

We develop here a general formalism for multi-orbital Mott systems which can be used to understand dynamical and static spectral weight transfer. We find that the spectral weight transferred from the high energy scales is greatly increased…
We examine the dynamics of a particle in a general rotating quadratic potential, not necessarily stable or isotropic, using a general complex mode formalism. The problem is equivalent to that of a charged particle in a quadratic potential…
