We study the dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensed atoms in a 1-D optical lattice potential in a regime where the collective (Josephson) tunneling energy is comparable with the on-site interaction energy, and the number of particles per…

The coherent flow of a Bose-Einstein condensate through a quantum dot in a magnetic waveguide is studied. By the numerical integration of the time-dependent Gross-Pitaevskii equation in presence of a source term, we simulate the propagation…

Quantum systems with exact analytic solutions are rare - challenging the realisation of excitation-free transport methods for many-body systems. Husimi's 1953 treatment of linearly driven harmonic oscillators constitutes an important…

We demonstrate quantum resonance ratchets created with Bose-Einstein condensates exposed to pulses of an off-resonant standing light wave. We show how some of the basic properties of the ratchets are controllable through the creation of…

A kicking sequence of the atom optics kicked rotor at quantum resonance can be interpreted as a quantum random walk in momentum space. We show how to steer such a random walk by applying a random sequence of intensities and phases of the…

We trace a simple mechanical model of a ratchet, and embed its setup in a conventional quasi-two-dimensional electron system in a semiconductor heterostructure. Expressed are two distinct microscopic mechanisms for such systems to serve as…

We study motion of a quantum wavepacket in a one-dimensional potential with correlated disorder. Presence of long-range potential correlations allows for existence of both localized and extended states. Weak time-dependent perturbation in…

We study the noise-induced currents and reliability or coherence of transport in two different classes of rocking ratchets. For this, we consider the motion of Brownian particles in the over damped limit in both adiabatic and non-adiabatic…

We show that directed ratchet transport of a driven overdamped Brownian particle subjected to a spatially periodic and symmetric potential can be reliably controlled by tailoring a biharmonic temporal force, in coherence with the…

The muscle contraction, operation of ATP synthase, maintaining the shape of a cell are believed to be secured by motor proteins, which can be modelled using the Brownian ratchet mechanism. We consider the randomly flashing ratchet model of…

The ability to cool quantum gases into the quantum degenerate realm has opened up possibilities for an extreme level of quantum-state control. In this paper, we investigate one such control protocol that demonstrates the resonant…

Low-order quantum resonances manifested by directed currents have been realized with cold atoms. Here we show that by increasing the strength of an experimentally achievable delta-kicking ratchet potential, quantum resonances of a very high…

We report the experimental implementation of discrete-time topological quantum walks of a Bose-Einstein condensate in momentum space. Introducing stroboscopic driving sequences to the generation of a momentum lattice, we show that the…

We consider an inertial active Ornstein-Uhlenbeck particle self-propelling in a saw-tooth ratchet potential. Using the Langevin simulation and matrix continued fraction method, the particle transport, steady state diffusion, and coherence…

For a periodically driven quantum system an effective time-independent Hamiltonian is derived with an eigen-energy spectrum, which in the regime of large driving frequencies approximates the quasi-energies of the corresponding Floquet…

We consider the ratchet dynamics in a $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric Floquet quantum system with symmetric temporal (harmonic) driving. In the exact $\mathcal{PT}$ phase, for a finite number of resonant frequencies, we show that the long-lasting…

We show theoretically that the dynamics of cold atoms in the lowest energy band of a stationary optical lattice can be transformed and controlled by a second, weaker, periodic potential moving at a constant speed along the axis of the…

We consider a Bose-Einstein condensate, which is confined in a very tight toroidal/annular trap, in the presence of a potential, which breaks the axial symmetry of the Hamiltonian. We investigate the stationary states of the condensate,…

We have realized real-time steering of the directed transport in a Brownian motor based on cold atoms in optical lattices, and demonstrate drifts along pre-designed paths. The transport is induced by spatiotemporal asymmetries in the…

We present non-perturbative solutions for multi-level quantum dot structures coupled to interacting one-dimensional electrodes out of equilibrium. At a special correlation strength the Hamiltonian can be mapped to the Kondo problem which…
