The acceleration theorem for wavepacket propagation in periodic potentials disentangles the kspace dynamics and real-space dynamics. This is well known and understood for Bloch oscillations and super Bloch oscillations in the presence of…
Many fundamental and applied experiments in quantum optics require transferring nonclassical states of light through large distances. In this context the free-space channels are a very promising alternative to optical fibers as they are…
We study the large-time behaviour of Brownian particles moving through a viscous medium in a confined potential, and which are further subjected to position-dependent driving forces that are periodic in time. We focus on the case where…
We study patterns that arise in the wake of an externally triggered, spatially propagating instability in the complex Ginzburg-Landau equation. We model the trigger by a spatial inhomogeneity moving with constant speed. In the comoving…
We study long range propagation of electromagnetic waves in random waveguides with rectangular cross-section and perfectly conducting boundaries. The waveguide is filled with an isotropic linear dielectric material, with randomly…
The self-action features of wave packets propagating in a two-dimensional system of equidistantly arranged fibers are studied analytically and numerically on the basis of the discrete nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation. Self-consistent…
We use semiclassical Hamiltonian optics to investigate the propagation of light rays through two-dimensional photonic crystals when slow spatial modulation of the lattice parameters induces mixed stable-chaotic ray dynamics. This modulation…
Unidirectional wave propagation has emerged as a key concept in the dynamics of non-reciprocal mechanical and acoustic metamaterials. This work investigates two fundamentally distinct strategies for achieving directional wave propagation in…
In this study, we analyze the behavior of monotone traveling waves of a one-dimensional porous medium equation modeling mechanical properties of living tissues. We are interested in the asymptotics where the pressure, which governs the…
The propagation of stable coherent entities of an electromagnetic field in nonlinear media with parameters varying in space can be described in the framework of iterations of nonlinear integral transformations. It is shown that for a set of…
Propagation of monochromatic electromagnetic waves in free space results in a widening of the spectral line. On the contrary, propagation preserves monochromaticity in the case of acoustic waves. In this case, the propagation can be…
We study theoretically the spatial evolution of optical beams inside a graded-index fiber exhibiting saturable nonlinearity. Utilizing an approach based on the variational principle, we identify the existence of bistable spatial solitons…
We investigate the dynamical properties of a strongly disordered micropolar lattice made up of cubic block units. This phononic lattice model supports both transverse and rotational degrees of freedom hence its disordered variant posses an…
We study temporal oscillations, known as dynamical beats, developed by a propagating pulse due to its interaction with a near-resonant collective medium of $^{133}$Cs atoms randomly captured by a nanofiber-based optical lattice. A…
Nonreciprocal wave propagation allows for directional energy transport. In this work, we systematically investigate wave dynamics in an elastic lattice that combines nonreciprocal stiffness with viscous damping. After establishing how…
We present a discrete model of resonant scattering of waves by an open periodic waveguide. The model elucidates a phenomenon common in electromagnetics, in which the interaction of plane waves with embedded guided modes of the waveguide…
We introduce a mechanism that can both hold and amplify electromagnetic waves by rapidly changing the permittivity of the medium during the wave travel from a positive to a dispersionless (i.e. non-Foster) negative value and then back…
Differentially rotating stars and planets transport angular momentum internally due to turbulence at rates that have long been a challenge to predict reliably. We develop a self-consistent saturation theory, using a statistical closure…
Space-time (ST) wave packets are propagation-invariant pulsed optical beams whose group velocity can be tuned in free space by tailoring their spatio-temporal spectral structure. To date, efforts on synthesizing ST wave packets have striven…
Shaping the wavefront of an incident wave to a complex scattering medium has demonstrated interesting possibilities, such as sub-diffraction wave focusing and enhancing light energy delivery. However, wavefront shaping has mainly been based…
