We study the dynamics of electrons in crystalline solids in the presence of inhomogeneous external electric and magnetic fields. We present a manifestly gauge-invariant operator-based approach without relying on a semiclassical wavepacket…
Reduced Bloch mode expansion is presented for fast periodic media band structure calculations. The expansion employs a natural basis composed of a selected reduced set of Bloch eigenfunctions. The reduced basis is selected within the…
The discrete spectra of certain two-dimensional Schrodinger operators are numerically calculated. These operators have interesting spectral properties, i.e. their kernels are multi-dimensional and the deformations of potentials via the…
Fractional calculus has become an essential framework in geophysics, optics, and biological systems to capture long-range correlations and anomalous transport. In this article, we extend fractional calculus to explore a particle in a…
The approximation of the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of an elliptic operator is a key computational task in many areas of applied mathematics and computational physics. An important case, especially in quantum physics, is the computation…
We consider magnetic Schr\"odinger operators with periodic magnetic and electric potentials on periodic discrete graphs. The spectrum of the operators consists of an absolutely continuous part (a union of a finite number of non-degenerate…
We present a new numerical method for accurate computations of solutions to (linear) one dimensional Schr\"odinger equations with periodic potentials. This is a prominent model in solid state physics where we also allow for perturbations by…
Euler's elastica model has a wide range of applications in Image Processing and Computer Vision. However, the non-convexity, the non-smoothness and the nonlinearity of the associated energy functional make its minimization a challenging…
As a consequence of Bloch's theorem, the numerical computation of the fermionic ground state density matrices and energies of periodic Schrodinger operators involves integrals over the Brillouin zone. These integrals are difficult to…
Recent interest in structure solution and refinement using electron diffraction (ED) has been fuelled by its inherent advantages when applied to crystals of sub-micron size, as well as a better sensitivity to light elements. Currently, data…
The article surveys the main techniques and results of the spectral theory of periodic operators arising in mathematical physics and other areas. Close attention is paid to studying analytic properties of Bloch and Fermi varieties, which…
In this paper we obtain asymptotic formulas of arbitrary order for the Bloch eigenvalue and the Bloch function of the periodic Schrodinger operator of arbitrary dimension, when corresponding quasimomentum lies near a diffraction hyperplane.…
Motivated by the discrete dipole approximation (DDA) for the scattering of electromagnetic waves by a dielectric obstacle that can be considered as a simple discretization of a Lippmann-Schwinger style volume integral equation for…
This work concerns the numerical analysis of the linear elasticity problem with a Robin boundary condition on a smooth domain. A finite element discretization is presented using high-order curved meshes in order to accurately discretize the…
In this survey we discuss spectral and quantum dynamical properties of discrete one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators whose potentials are obtained by real-valued sampling along the orbits of an ergodic invertible transformation. After an…
We consider the linear Schr\"odinger equation and its discretization by split-step methods where the part corresponding to the Laplace operator is approximated by the midpoint rule. We show that the numerical solution coincides with the…
We modify the Schr\"{o}dinger equation in a way that preserves its main properties but makes use of higher order derivative terms. Although the modification represents an analogy to the Doebner-Goldin modification, it can differ from it…
We derive a multi-band formulation of the orbital magnetization in a normal periodic insulator (i.e., one in which the Chern invariant, or in 2d the Chern number, vanishes). Following the approach used recently to develop the single-band…
In this work we explore the fidelity of numerical approximations to the analytic spectra of hyperbolic partial differential equation systems with variable coefficients. We are particularly interested in the ability of discrete methods to…
We consider Schr\"odinger operators on periodic discrete graphs. It is known that the spectrum of these operators has band structure. We obtain a localization of spectral bands in terms of eigenvalues of Dirichlet and Neumann operators on a…
