We investigate classical scattering off a harmonically oscillating target in two spatial dimensions. The shape of the scatterer is assumed to have a boundary which is locally convex at any point and does not support the presence of any…

For any finite point set in $D$-dimensional space equipped with the 1-norm, we present random linear embeddings to $k$-dimensional space, with a new metric, having the following properties. For any pair of points from the point set that are…

We study kinetics of electrons, scattered by heavy particles undergoing slow diffusive motion. In a three-dimensional space we claim the existence of the crossover region (on the energy axis), which separates the states with fast diffusion…

We introduce a simple geometric model which describes the kinetics of fragmentation of d-dimensional objects. In one dimension our model coincides with the random scission model and show a simple scaling behavior in the long-time limit. For…

Formula for the size of the scatterer is derived explicitly in terms of the scattering amplitude corresponding to this scatterer. By the scatterer either a bounded obstacle $D$ or the support of the compactly supported potential is meant

We study the phenomenon of mass loss by a scalar charge -- a point particle which acts as a source for a (non-interacting) scalar field -- in (1+1)-dimensional and (2+1)-dimensional flat spacetime. We find that such particles are unstable…

A non-relativistic scalar particle moving on a curved surface undergoes a geometric scattering whose behavior is sensitive to the theoretically ambiguous values of the intrinsic and extrinsic curvature coefficients entering the expression…

We investigate multiple scattering of scalar waves by an ensemble of $N$ resonant point scatterers in three dimensions. For up to $N = 21$ scatterers, we numerically optimize the positions of the individual scatterers, such as to maximize…

The transmissivity of a one-dimensional random system that is periodic on average is studied. It is shown that the transmission coefficient for frequencies corresponding to a gap in the band structure of the average periodic system…

Dimensional reduction occurs when the critical behavior of one system can be related to that of another system in a lower dimension. We show that this occurs for directed branched polymers (DBP) by giving an exact relationship between DBP…

We point out little discussed phenomenon in elementary quantum mechanics. In one-dimensional potential scattering problems, the scattering amplitudes are not uniquely determined at special points in parameter space. We examine a few…

We establish a connection between dependence structures and subclasses of distortion riskmetrics under which the latter are additive. A new notion of positive dependence, called partial comonotonicity, is developed, which nests the existing…

A nonrelativistic scalar particle that is constrained to move on an asymptotically flat curved surface undergoes a geometric scattering that is sensitive to the mean and Gaussian curvatures of the surface. A careful study of possible…

Rugged (or, rough) energy landscape (REL) with spatially distributed maxima and minima are often employed in applications of physics, chemistry and biology (enzyme kinetics, protein folding, diffusion in disordered solids, transport in…

We observe that the reflection and transmission coefficients of a particle within a double, PT symmetric heterojunction with spatially varying mass, show interesting features, depending on the degree of non Hermiticity, although there is no…

A polymer network fractures by breaking covalent bonds, but the experimentally measured strength of the polymer network is orders of magnitude lower than the strength of covalent bonds. We investigate the effect of statistical variation of…

It has long been established that disorder has profound effects on unconventional superconductors and it has been suggested repeatedly that observation and analysis of these disorder effects can help to identify the order parameter…

Colliding high energy hadrons either produce new particles or scatter elastically with their quantum numbers conserved and no other particles produced. We consider the latter case here. Although inelastic processes dominate at high…

We exemplarily investigate how optical properties of single scatterers in interacting multi-particle systems influence measurable structure factors. Both particles with linear gradients of their scattering length density and core-shell…

It is shown that resonance scattering of fast ($pL > >pR > > 1$, $p$ is the particle momentum, $L$ is the longitudinal dimension of the potential, and $R$ is its transverse dimension) charged particles occurs in the extended potential. The…
