We introduce a novel concept of surface bound states in the continuum, i.e. surface modes embedded into the linear spectral band of a discrete lattice. We suggest an efficient method for creating such surface modes and the local bounded…

In recent years, bound states in continuum (BICs) have gained significant value for practitioners in both theoretical and applied photonics. This paper focuses on devices that utilize non-homogeneous thin patterned laminae. The properties,…

We examine bulk and surface bound states in the continuum (BIC) that is, square-integrable, localized modes embedded in the linear spectral band of a discrete lattice including interactions to first-and second nearest neighbors. We suggest…

Electronic localization in narrow graphene constrictions is theoretically studied, and it is found that long-lived quasibound states (QBSs) can exist in a class of ultrashort graphene quantum point contacts (QPCs). These QBSs are shown to…

The transfer-matrix methodology is used to solve linear systems of differential equations, such as those that arise when solving Schr\"odinger's equation, in situations where the solutions of interest are in the continuous part of the…

In the framework of the Bose-Hubbard model, we show that two-particle surface bound states embedded in the continuum (BIC) can be sustained at the edge of a semi-infinite one-dimensional tight-binding lattice for any infinitesimally-small…

Transient dynamics are of large interest in many areas of science. Here, a generalization of basin stability (BS) is presented: constrained basin stability (CBS) that is sensitive to various different types of transients arising from finite…

We present a distinct mechanism for the formation of bound states in the continuum (BICs). In chiral quantum systems there appear zero-energy states in which the wave function has finite amplitude only in one of the subsystems defined by…

We investigate permutation-invariant continuous variable quantum states and their covariance matrices. We provide a complete characterization of the latter with respect to permutation-invariance, exchangeability and representing convex…

Standard variational methods tend to obtain upper bounds on the ground state energy of quantum many-body systems. Here we study a complementary method that determines lower bounds on the ground state energy in a systematic fashion, scales…

Bound states are dissipation-resilient states that may emerge when quantum systems are strongly coupled to reservoirs with band gaps. We analyze an exactly solvable bosonic model for bound state existence and reproduce these results by a…

The ground-state fidelity has been introduced recently as a tool to investigate quantum phase transitions. Here, we apply this concept in the context of a crossover problem. Specifically, we calculate the fidelity susceptibility for the BCS…

Continuum-buried defect states in semiconductors are generally expected to be optically inactive due to their strong coupling to continuum bands. Here, we show that such defects can instead host radiative electronic bound states in the…

We introduce a method for effectively identifying bound states in the continuum (BICs) - notably without computing the imaginary part of the eigenvalues - thereby simplifying the modeling and potentially reducing computation time. In real,…

In this article, we study the formation of the bound states in the continuum (BICs) in a two-channel Fano-Anderson model. We employ the Green's function formalism, together with the equation of motion method, to analyze the relevant…

We discuss the restructuring of the BPS spectrum which occurs on certain submanifolds of the moduli/parameter space -- the curves of the marginal stability (CMS) -- using quasiclassical methods. We argue that in general a `composite' BPS…

Bound states in the continuum (BICs) are waves that remain localized even though they coexist with a continuous spectrum of radiating waves that can carry energy away. Their very existence defies conventional wisdom. Although BICs were…

Bound states in the continuum (BSCs) were reported in a linear vibronic coupling model with a conical intersection (CI) [Cederbaum et al. Phys. Rev. Lett. 90, 013001 (2003)]. It was also found that these states are destroyed within the…

Bound states in the continuum provide a remarkable example of how a simple problem solved about a century ago in quantum mechanics can drive the research on a whole spectrum of resonant phenomena in wave physics. Due to their huge radiative…

We investigate the occurrence of bound states in the continuum (BIC's) in serial structures of quantum dots coupled to an external waveguide, when some characteristic length of the system is changed. By resorting to a multichannel…
