Topological routing in Chern insulators
Mark J. Ablowitz, Justin T. Cole, Sean D. Nixon
Chern insulator systems are realizable in numerous physical systems and can support robust nonreciprocal transmission of energy. A routing functionality constructed from two counte…

Spiral Wave Solutions in Water Waves
Mark J. Ablowitz, Justin T. Cole, Sean D. Nixon
Spiral wave solutions are found in linear and weakly nonlinear irrotational water wave equations. These unsteady spiral waves evolve from suitable initial conditions; they are not…

Switching via Wave Interaction in Topological Photonic Lattices
Mark J. Ablowitz, Justin T. Cole, S. D. Nixon
A honeycomb Floquet lattice with helically rotating waveguides and an interface separating two counter-propagating subdomains is analyzed. Two topologically protected localized wav…
