We study switching between period-two states of an underdamped quantum oscillator modulated at nearly twice its natural frequency. For all temperatures and parameter values switching occurs via quantum activation: it is determined by…

We study spectral properties of bounded and unbounded complex Jacobi matrices. In particular, we formulate conditions assuring that the spectrum of the studied operators is continuous on some subsets of the complex plane and we provide…

We show that the vibrational response of a glassy liquid at finite frequencies can be described by continuum mechanics despite the vast degeneracy of the vibrational ground state; standard continuum elasticity assumes a unique ground state.…

We investigate sample-to-sample fluctuations of the shear modulus in ensembles of particle packings near the jamming transition. Unlike the average modulus, which exhibits distinct scaling behaviours depending on the interparticle…

Periodic configurations have dominated the design of phononic and elastic-acoustic metamaterial structures for the past decades. Unlike periodic crystals, quasicrystals lack translational symmetry but are unrestricted in rotational…

This paper aims at quantitatively understanding the elastic wave scattering due to negative metamaterial structures under wide-band signals in the time domain. Specifically, we establish the modal expansion for the time-dependent field…

In general, for single field, the scale invariant spectrum of curvature perturbation can be given by either its constant mode or its increasing mode. We show that during slowly expanding or contracting, the spectrum of curvature…

In this work the spectral theory of self-adjoint operator $A$ represented by Jacobi matrix is considered. The approach is based on the continued fraction representation of the resolvent matrix element of $A$. Different criteria of absolute…

We study the fate of two-dimensional quadratic band crossing topological phases under a one-dimensional quasiperiodic modulation. By employing numerically exact methods, we fully characterize the phase diagram of the model in terms of…

We investigate vibrational excitation broadening in one dimensional Fibonacci model of quasicrystals (QCs). The chain is constructed from particles with two masses following the Fibonacci inflation rule. The eigenmode spectrum depends…

We study self-adjoint bounded Jacobi operators of the form: (J \psi)(n) = a_n \psi(n + 1) + b_n \psi(n) +a_{n-1} \psi(n - 1) on $\ell^2(\N)$. We assume that for some fixed q, the q-variation of $\{a_n\}$ and $\{b_n\}$ is square-summable and…

We compute the one- and two-loop corrected mode function of a massless minimally coupled scalar endowed with a quartic self-interaction in the locally de Sitter background of an inflating universe for a state which is released in…

The relative stability of three-dimensional icosahedral quasicrystals in multi-component systems has been investigated based on a coupled-mode Swift-Hohenberg model with two-length-scales. A recently developed projection method, which…

We study the distances, called spacings, between pairs of neighboring energy levels for the quantum harmonic oscillator. Specifically, we consider all energy levels falling between E and E+1, and study how the spacings between these levels…

The excess power, energy and intensity of a random electromagnetic field above a high threshold level are characterized based on a Slepian--Kac model for upcrossings. For quasi-static fields, the probability distribution of the excess…

This paper is concerned with the long-time dynamics of the nonlinear wave equation in one-space dimension, $$ u_{tt} - \delta^2 u_{xx} +V'(u) =0 \qquad x\in [0,1] $$ where $\delta>0$ is a parameter and $V(u)$ is a potential bounded from…

We study the electronic properties of a two-dimensional quasiperiodic tiling, the isometric generalized Rauzy tiling, embedded in a magnetic field. Its energy spectrum is computed in a tight-binding approach by means of the recursion…

We make use of continuum elasticity theory to investigate the collective modes that propagate along the edge of a two-dimensional electron liquid or crystal in a magnetic field. An exact solution of the equations of motion is obtained with…

We propose a scaling ansatz for the elastic energy of a system near the critical jamming transition in terms of three relevant fields: the compressive strain $\Delta \phi$ relative to the critical jammed state, the shear strain $\epsilon$,…

Some issues that arise when modeling elastic energy for binary alloys are discussed within the context of a Keating model and density functional calculations. The Keating model is based on atomistic modeling of elastic interactions in…
