I review the four mechanisms of bound states in the continuum (BICs) in application to microwave and acoustic cavities open to directional waveguides. The most simple are the symmetry protected BICs which are localized inside the cavity…

The physics of systems of quantum emitters in waveguide quantum electrodynamics is significantly influenced by the relation between their spatial separation and the wavelength of the emitted photons. If the distance that separates a pair of…

We study bound states embedded into the continuum of edge states in two-dimensional topological insulators. These states emerge in the presence of a short-range potential of a structural defect coupled to the boundary. In this case the edge…

We study the emergence of two types of two-photon bounds states in waveguides of any chirality. Specifically, we present a systematic way of analytically determining the eigenstates of a system consisting of a waveguide coupled to a…

We study numerically the existence and character of bound states for positive and negative point charges shielded by the response of a two-dimensional homogeneous electron gas. The problem is related to many physical situations and has…

We consider bound states in the continuum (BSC) or embedded trapped modes in two- and three-dimensional acoustic axisymmetric duct-cavity structures. We demonstrate numerically that under variation of the length of the cavity multiple BSCs…

Bound state in the continuum (BIC) is a mathematical concept with an infinite radiative quality factor (Q) that exists only in an ideal infinite array. It was first proposed in quantum mechanics, and extended to general wave phenomena such…

We show that quasi-bound electron states are formed in a quantum wire as a result of electron backscattering in the transition regions between the wire and the electron reservoirs, to which the wire is coupled. The backscattering mechanism…

We consider dielectric cavities whose radiation space is restricted by two parallel metallic planes. The TM solutions of the Maxwell equations of the system are equivalent to the solutions of periodical arrays of dielectric cavities. The…

We find the phase-controlled bound state out of the continuum~(BOC) and bound state in the continuum~(BIC) in an artificial giant atom dressed one-dimensional photonic waveguide where the giant atom couples to the waveguide via two distant…

Bound states in the continuum (BICs) are quantum states that remain localized despite existing within a continuum of extended, delocalized states. They defy conventional wave theories and could be instrumental for quantum technologies that…

We consider a pair of parallel straight quantum waveguides coupled laterally through a window of a width $ \ell $ in the common boundary. We show that such a system has at least one bound state for any $ \ell>0 $. We find the corresponding…

The existence of bound states in quantum mechanics with no classical counterpart has been a subject of interest for a long time. Cross-wires and cavities connected to infinite leads are typical examples in which open geometries with bulges…

The existence of bound states in the continuum was predicted at the dawn of quantum mechanics by von Neumann and Wigner. In this work we discuss the mechanism of formation of these exotic states and the feasibility to observe them…

Quantum correlations between distant particles remain enigmatic since the birth of quantum mechanics. Here we predict a novel kind of bound quantum state in the simplest one-dimensional setup of two interacting particles in a box.…

It is known that the overlap of two energy eigenstates in a decaying quantum system is bounded from above by a function of the energy detuning and the individual decay rates. This is usually traced back to the positive definiteness of an…

Bound states in the continuum (BICs) have attracted intense interest, yet their many-particle counterparts remain largely unexplored in waveguide quantum electrodynamics. We identify and characterize a bound state embedded in the doublon…

We study the properties of bound states in waveguide-QED systems consisting of multiple giant atoms coupled to a coupled-resonator waveguide. Based on the general analytical expressions for these states and the corresponding energy spectra,…

We show that edge states similar to those known for topological insulators exist in two-dimensional electron system with one-band spectrum in the presence of heterogeneous spin-orbit interaction (SOI). These states appear at boundaries…

We address a two-dimensional parity-time (PT)-symmetric structure built as a chain of waveguides, where all waveguides except for the central one are conservative, while the central one is divided into two halves with gain and losses. We…
