Bloch oscillations, the oscillatory motion of a quantum particle in a periodic potential, are one of the most fascinating effects of coherent quantum transport. Originally studied in the context of electrons in crystals, Bloch oscillations…

Motivated by a recent experiment by F. Meinert et al, arxiv:1608.08200, we study the dynamics of an impurity moving in the background of a harmonically trapped one-dimensional Bose gas in the hard-core limit. We show that due to the hidden…

We show analytically that particle trapping appears in a quantum process called "quantum walk", in which the particle moves macroscopically correlating to the inner states. It has been well known that a particle in the ``Hadamard walk" with…

Selftrapping has been traditionally studied on the assumption that quasiparticles interact with harmonic phonons and that this interaction is linear in the displacement of the phonon. To complement recent semiclassical studies of…

Discontinuous quantum phase transitions and the associated metastability play central roles in diverse areas of physics ranging from ferromagnetism to false vacuum decay in the early universe. Using strongly-interacting ultracold atoms in…

Quantum steering means that in some bipartite quantum systems, the local measurements on one side can determine the state of the other side. Here we show that in high-dimensional systems, there exists a specific entangled state which can…

Rotation of atoms in a lattice is studied using a Hubbard model. It is found that the atoms are still contained in the trap even when the rotation frequency is larger than the trapping frequency. This is very different from the behavior in…

Spontaneously crystalline ground states, called quantum crystals, of a trapped Rydberg-dressed Bose-Einstein condensate are numerically investigated. As a result described by a mean-field order parameter, such states simultaneously possess…

The spectrum of the Quantum Discrete Nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation on a periodic 1D lattice shows some interesting detailed band structure which may be interpreted as the quantum signature of a two-breather interaction in the classical…

We study localized modes in binary mixtures of Bose-Einstein condensates embedded in one-dimensional optical lattices. We report a diversity of asymmetric modes and investigate their dynamics. We concentrate on the cases where one of the…

We describe, for the first time, the full 2D scattering of long-lived breathers in a model hexagonal lattice of atoms. The chosen system, representing an idealized model of mica, combines a Lennard-Jones interatomic potential with an…

We explore breather propagation in the damped oscillatory chain with essentially nonlinear (non-linearizable) nearest-neighbour coupling. Combination of the damping and the substantially nonlinear coupling leads to rather unusual two-stage…

By numerical exact diagonalization techniques, we obtain the quantum phase diagram of the lattice fractional quantum Hall (FQH) systems in the presence of quenched disorder. By implementing an array of local potential traps representing the…

The phenomenon of localization usually happens due to the existence of disorder in a medium. Nevertheless, certain quantum systems allow dynamical localization solely due to the nature of internal interactions. We study a discrete time…

In this work, we study a space-time modulated electro-mechanical system, consisting of an array of coupled cantilevers with their on-site potential provided by electromagnets driven by AC currents. Model equations are derived, and the…

By integrating a set of model equations for Josephson ladder subjected to a uniform transverse bias current we have found almost all of the kinds of breathers described in recent experiments, and closely reproduced their voltage-current…

We review research on the role of nonlinear coherent phenomena (e.g breathers and kinks) in the formation linear decorations in mica crystal. The work is based on a new model for the motion of the mica hexagonal K layer, which allows…

We study energy transport in a chain of quantum harmonic and anharmonic oscillators where the anharmonicity is induced by interaction between local vibrational states of the chain. Using adiabatic elimination and numerical simulations with…

Recently $q$-breathers - time-periodic solutions which localize in the space of normal modes and maximize the energy density for some mode vector $q_0$ - were obtained for finite nonlinear lattices. We scale these solutions together with…

We numerically investigate statistical ensembles for the occupations of eigenstates of an isolated quantum system emerging as a result of quantum quenches. The systems investigated are sparse random matrix Hamiltonians and disordered…
