We predict the possibility to generate a finite stationary spin current by applying an unbiased ac driving to a quasi-one-dimensional asymmetric periodic structure with Rashba spin-orbit interaction and strong dissipation. We show that…

Advances in fabrication and control of quantum dots allow the realization of metastructures that may exhibit novel electrical transport phenomena. Here, we investigate the electrical current passing through one such metastructure, a system…

We demonstrate that persistent current in meso- and nanorings may fluctuate down to zero temperature provided the current operator does not commute with the total Hamiltonian of the system. For a model of a quantum particle on a ring we…

We predict a new class of quantum Hall phenomena in completely neutral systems, demonstrating that the interplay between radial electric fields and dipole moments induces exact $e^2/h$ quantization without the need for Landau levels or…

A time-dependent electric field gives rise to a stationary non-equilibrium current I^{(2)} around a mesoscopic metal ring threaded by a magnetic flux. We show that this current, which is proportional to the intensity of the field, is…

A stationary body that is out of thermal equilibrium with its environment, and for which the electric susceptibility is non-reciprocal, experiences a quantum torque. This arises from the spatially non-symmetric electrical response of the…

We investigate directed motion in non-adiabatically rocked ratchet systems sustaining few bands below the barrier. Upon restricting the dynamics to the lowest M bands, the total system-plus-bath Hamiltonian is mapped onto a discrete…

Using a microscopic theory based on the density matrix formalism we investigate quantum revivals and collapses of the charge polarization and charge current dynamics in mesoscopic rings driven by short asymmetric electromagnetic pulses. The…

This work considers entropy generation and relaxation in quantum quenches in the Ising and $3$-state Potts spin chains. In the absence of explicit symmetry breaking we find universal ratios involving R\'enyi entropy growth rates and…

We present a formalism that accounts for the evolution of quantum states of travelling light pulses incident on and emanating from a local quantum scatterer such as an atom or a cavity. We assume non-dispersive asymptotic propagation of the…

We calculate tree--level currents of created particles in strong background electric fields in 4D QED for various initial states. Namely, we do that in pulse background for initial vacuum and thermal states at past infinity. In both cases…

We develop a theory for charge and spin current between two canted magnetic leads flowing through a quantum dot with an arbitrary local interaction. For a noncollinear magnetic configuration, we calculate equilibrium and nonequilibrium…

We analize theoretically the dynamics of N electrons localized in a semiconductor quantum ring under a train of phase-locked infrared laser pulses. The pulse sequence is designed to control the total angular momentum of the electrons. The…

The problem of an impurity electron in a quantum ring (QR) in the presence of a radially directed strong external electric field is investigated in detail. Both an analytical and a numerical approach to the problem are developed. The…

In this work we investigate the phenomena associated with the new thresholds in the spectrum of excitations arising when different one-dimensional strongly interacting systems are voltage biased and weakly coupled by tunneling. We develop…

We analyze quantum charge pumping in an open ring with a dot embedded in one of its arms. We show that cyclic driving of the dot levels by a \textit{single} parameter leads to a pumped current when a static magnetic flux is simultaneously…

The quantum ratchet effect in fully chaotic systems is approached by studying, for the first time, \emph{statistical} properties of the ratchet current over well-defined sets of initial states. Natural initial states in a semiclassical…

We study the excitation spectrum and dynamical response functions for several quasi-one-dimensional spin systems in magnetic fields without dipolar spin order transverse to the field. This includes both nematic phases, which harbor "hidden"…

We have measured a quantum ratchet effect for vortices moving in a quasi-one-dimensional Josephson junction array. In this solid-state device the shape of the vortex potential energy, and consequently the band structure, can be accurately…

Directed classical current that increases linearly with time without using a biased external field is obtained in a simple model Hamiltonian system derived from a modified kicked rotor model, by breaking the spatial symmetry of the…
