We study the rotational structures of aperiodic tilings in Euclidean space of arbitrary dimension using topological methods. Classical topological approaches to the study of aperiodic patterns have largely concentrated just on translational…

A sudden change in material properties creates a temporal interface and forces a propagating wave to change its frequency while preserving its wavenumber. In contrast to monoatomic lattices with a single frequency-wavenumber pair,…

The fact that closed timelike curves (CTCs) are permitted by general relativity raises the question as to how quantum systems behave when time travel to the past occurs. Research into answering this question by utilising the quantum circuit…

We study a periodic vibrating string composed of a finite sequence of string segments connected periodically, with each segment characterized by a constant linear mass density. The main purpose is to provide a configuration that can mimic…

Space-time light structuring has emerged as a very powerful tool for controlling the propagation dynamics of pulsed beam. The ability to manipulate and generate space-time distributions of light has been remarkably enhanced in past few…

Exploring nonminimal-rank quasicrystals, which have symmetries that can be found in both periodic and aperiodic crystals, often provides new insight into the physical nature of aperiodic long-range order in models that are easier to treat.…

We study the effect of structural disorder on the transition from the bound states in the continuum (BICs) to quasi-BICs by the example of the periodic photonic structure composed of two layers of parallel dielectric rods. We uncover the…

Time-periodic form or expression is a ubiquitous natural and man-made phenomenon observable in all the scientific and engineering disciplines. In this article, we propose a theory of periodic sequence (TPS), which can be formulated as a…

Modulating macroscopic parameters of materials in time offers innovative avenues for manipulating electromagnetic waves. Due to such enticing prospects, the general research subject of time-varying systems is expanding today in different…

Time-varying optical materials have attracted recent interest for their potential to enable frequency conversion, nonreciprocal physics, photonic time-crystals, and more. However, the description of time-varying materials has been primarily…

Out-of-time-ordered correlators (OTOCs) have been suggested as a means to study quantum chaotic behavior in various systems. In this work, I calculate OTOCs for the quantum mechanical anharmonic oscillator with quartic potential, which is…

Almost periodic particle chains exhibit peculiar propagation properties that are not observed in perfectly periodic ones. Furthermore, since they inherently support non-negligible long-range interactions and radiation through the…

We develop a method to design tunable quasiperiodic structures of particles suspended in a fluid by controlling standing acoustic waves. One application of our results is to ultrasound directed self-assembly, which allows fabricating…

In this paper, we construct a one-dimensional photonic quasicrystal by combining two incommensurate spatial harmonics, where the ratio of their periods is the irrational number \beta. We evaluate the photonic quasicrystal accurately by a…

This work investigates the quantum transport in a narrow constriction acted upon by a finite-range transversely polarized time-dependent electric field. A generalized scattering-matrix method is developed that has incorporated a…

We study plasmonic time crystals, an extension of dielectric-based photonic time crystals to plasmonic media. Remarkably, we demonstrate that such systems may amplify both longitudinal and transverse modes. In particular, we show that…

Atomic-resolution electron microscope images show that a quasicrystal is a quasiperiodic packing of clusters. The outer atomic shells of multi-shell clusters occuring in quasicrystals are highly symmetric and rather robust, but some…

Time crystals are unexpected states of matter that spontaneously break time translation symmetry either in a discrete or continuous manner. However, spatially-mesoscale space-time crystals that break both the space and time symmetries have…

When the discrete time-translation symmetry of isolated, periodically driven systems is spontaneously broken, a new phase of matter can emerge. We review some recent developments on both the theoretical underpinnings and experimental…

Conduction through materials crucially depends on how ordered they are. Periodically ordered systems exhibit extended Bloch waves that generate metallic bands, whereas disorder is known to limit conduction and localize the motion of…
