This note analytically investigates non-reciprocal wave dispersion in locally resonant acoustic metamaterials. Dispersion relations associated with space-time varying modulations of inertial and stiffness parameters of the base material and…

Highly resonant photonic structures, such as cavities and metasurfaces, can dramatically enhance the efficiency of nonlinear processes by utilizing strong optical field enhancement at the resonance. The latter, however, comes at the expense…

We prove that a system of non-interacting electrons proximity coupled to a conventional s-wave superconductor cannot realize a time reversal invariant topological phase. This is done by showing that for such a system, in either one or two…

Topological theory predicts the necessary conditions for robust dimensional reduction in a host of quantum and classical systems. Models have recently been proposed for stochastic systems which describe many biological and chemical…

Physical systems with material properties modulated in time provide versatile routes for designing magnetless nonreciprocal devices. Traditionally, nonreciprocity in such systems is achieved exploiting both temporal and spatial modulations,…

Although Einstein's field equations are time-independent, the multivalued feature of the horizon of a blackhole naturally enables the one-way transmission, leading to the strong arrow of time from the time-independent gravitational…

The classical 'time-bandwidth' limit for linear time-invariant (LTI) devices asserts that it is impossible to store broadband waves (large {\Delta}{\omega}'s) for long times (large {\Delta}t's). For standing waves, i.e., vibrations, in…

Tunneling delay times of wavepackets in quantum mechanical penetration of rectangular barriers have long been known to show a perplexing independence with respect to the width of the barrier. This also has relevence to the transmission of…

The advent of novel nonlinear materials has stirred unprecedented interest in exploring the use of temporal inhomogeneities to achieve novel forms of wave control, amidst the greater vision of engineering metamaterials across both space and…

Non-reciprocity of signal transmission enhances capacity of communication channels and protects transmission quality against possible signal instabilities, thus becoming an important component ensuring coherent information processing.…

By taking advantage of the temporal correlations of the nonlinear phase noise in WDM systems we show that the capacity of a nonlinear fiber link is notably higher than what is currently assumed. This advantage is translated into the…

Acoustic waves in a linear time-invariant medium are generally reciprocal; however, reciprocity can break down in a time-variant system. In this Letter, we report on an experimental demonstration of nonreciprocity in a dynamic…

This paper considers a class of nonlinear time harmonic Maxwell systems at fixed frequency, with nonlinear terms taking the form $\mathscr{X}(x,|\vec E(x)|^2)\vec E(x)$, $\mathscr{Y}(x,|\vec H(x)|^2)\vec H(x)$, such that $\mathscr{X}(x,s)$,…

We introduce a class of non-Hermitian systems that break electromagnetic reciprocity while preserving time-reversal symmetry, and describe its novel polarization dynamics. We show that this class of systems can be realized using van der…

We study the breaking of reciprocity in non-Hermitian coupled photonic waveguides by the simultaneous action of the nonlinear effect of saturable absorption, and the presence of exceptional points. The nonlinear response of such a system is…

We study longitudinal and transverse wave propagation in beams with elastic properties that are periodically varying in space and time. Spatiotemporal modulation of the elastic properties breaks mechanical reciprocity and induces one-way…

Superconductivity, an emergence of a macroscopic quantum state, gives rise to unique electromagnetic responses leading to perfect shielding of magnetic field and zero electrical resistance. In this paper, we propose that superconductors…

Originally emerged within the context of string and quantum field theory, and later fruitfully extrapolated to photonics, the algebraic transformations of quantum-mechanical supersymmetry were conceived in the space realm. Here, we…

In recent years a significant progress has been made in the development of magnet-less nonreciprocity using space-time modulation, both in electromagnetics and acoustics. This approach has so far resulted in a plethora of non-reciprocal…

Nonreciprocity can profoundly alter the spectra and dynamics of open quantum systems, yet its impact on the long-time steady-state phases of matter has remained largely unexplored. Here we show that the interplay of nonreciprocity, symmetry…
