Designing lasing and perfectly absorbing potentials

Vladimir V. Konotop, Evgeny Lakshtanov, Boris Vainberg

Existence of a spectral singularity (SS) in the spectrum of {a Schrödinger operator with} a non-Hermitian potential requires exact matching of parameters of the potential. We provi…

Spectral singularities of odd--symmetric potential

Vladimir V. Konotop, Dmitry A. Zezyulin

We describe one-dimensional stationary scattering of a two-component wave field by a non-Hermitian matrix potential which features odd- symmetry, i.e., symmetry with $(PT)^2=-1…

Multiple timescale contact charging

T. Shinbrot, B. Ferdowsi, S. Sundaresan +1

Contact charging between insulators is one of the most basic, yet least well understood, of physical processes. For example we have no clear theory for how insulators recruit enoug…

Coherent perfect absorber and laser for nonlinear waves in optical waveguide arrays

Dmitry A. Zezyulin, Herwig Ott, Vladimir V. Konotop

A localized non-Hermitian potential can operate as a coherent perfect absorber or as a laser for nonlinear waves. The effect is illustrated for an array of optical waveguides, with…

One-loop contribution to dark matter-nucleon scattering in the pseudoscalar dark matter model

Duarte Azevedo, Mateusz Duch, Bohdan Grzadkowski +3

Recent dark matter (DM) direct searches place very stringent constraints on the possible DM candidates proposed in extensions of the Standard Model. There are however models where…

Fundraising and vote distribution: a non-equilibrium statistical approach

H. P. M. Melo, N. A. M. Araujo, J. S. Andrade

The number of votes correlates strongly with the money spent in a campaign, but the relation between the two is not straightforward. Among other factors, the output of a ballot dep…

Infinite-dimensional meta-conformal Lie algebras in one and two spatial dimensions

Malte Henkel, Stoimen Stoimenov

Meta-conformal transformations are constructed as sets of time-space transformations which are not angle-preserving but contain time- and space translations, time-space dilatations…

Many-body effects in (p,pN) reactions within a unified approach

R. Crespo, A. Arriaga, R. B. Wiringa +3

We study knockout reactions with proton probes within a theoretical framework where {\it ab initio} Quantum Monte Carlo wave functions are combined with the Faddeev/Alt-Grassberger…

Axiomatic construction of quantum Langevin equations

Rúbia Araújo, Sascha Wald, Malte Henkel

A phenomenological construction of quantum Langevin equations, based on the physical criteria of (i) the canonical equal-time commutators, (ii) the Kubo formula, (iii) the virial t…

Pseudoscalar decays to gauge bosons at the LHC and at a future 100 TeV collider

Abdesslam Arhrib, Rachid Benbrik, Jaouad El Falaki +2

We discuss the search for a CP-odd scalar decaying into gauge bosons in the framework of a CP-conserving two-Higgs doublet model (2HDM) and of a 2HDM extended with a vector-like qu…

Coherent perfect absorption of nonlinear matter waves

Andreas Müllers, Bodhaditya Santra, Christian Baals +6

Coherent perfect absorption is the complete extinction of incoming radiation by a complex potential in a physical system supporting wave propagation. The concept was proven for lin…

Jamming and percolation properties of random sequential adsorption with relaxation

Sumanta Kundu, Nuno A. M. Araújo, S. S. Manna

The random sequential adsorption (RSA) model is a classical model in Statistical Physics for adsorption on two-dimensional surfaces. Objects are deposited sequentially at random an…

Spin-orbit coupled soliton in a random potential

Sh. Mardonov, V. V. Konotop, B. A. Malomed +2

We investigate theoretically the dynamics of a spin-orbit coupled soliton formed by a self- interacting Bose-Einstein condensate immersed in a random potential, in the presence of…

Mechanical equilibrium of aggregates of dielectric spheres

A. F. V. Matias, T. Shinbrot, N. A. M. Araujo

Industrial as well as natural aggregation of fine particles is believed to be associated with electrostatics. Yet like charges repel, so it is unclear how similarly treated particl…

Route to chaos in a coupled microresonator system with gain and loss

Krzysztof Zegadlo, Nguyen Viet Hung, Vladimir V. Konotop +2

We consider chaotic dynamics of a system of two coupled ring resonators with a linear gain and a nonlinear absorption. Such a structure can be implemented in various settings inclu…

Testing scalar versus vector dark matter

Duarte Azevedo, Mateusz Duch, Bohdan Grzadkowski +3

We investigate and compare two simple models of dark matter (DM): a vector and a scalar DM model. Both models require the presence of two physical Higgs bosons and whic…

Models with Extended Higgs Sectors at Future Colliders

Duarte Azevedo, Pedro Ferreira, M. Margarete Mühlleitner +2

We discuss the phenomenology of several Beyond the Standard Model (SM) extensions that include extended Higgs sectors. The models discussed are: the SM extended by a complex single…

Electroweak vacuum lifetime in two Higgs doublet models

V. Branchina, F. Contino, P. M. Ferreira

We study the stability of neutral electroweak vacua in two Higgs doublet models, and calculate the lifetime of these states when the parameters are such that they are false vacua.…

CP in the dark

Duarte Azevedo, P. M. Ferreira, M. Margarete Muhlleitner +3

We build a model containing two scalar doublets and a scalar singlet with a specific discrete symmetry. After spontaneous symmetry breaking, the model has Standard Model-like pheno…

Dynamical demixing of a binary mixture under sedimentation

A. S. Nunes, R. C. V. Coelho, V. C. Braz +2

We investigate the sedimentation dynamics of a binary mixture, the species of which differ by their Stokes coefficients but are identical otherwise. We analyze the sedimentation dy…
