Rabi transport and the other finite-size effects in one-dimensional discrete-time topological quantum walk

New Journal of Physics
This paper investigates Rabi transport and finite-size effects in one-dimensional discrete-time topological quantum walks. We demonstrate the emergence of localized states at boundaries between topologically distinct phases and analyze how finite system ...

A Critical Call for Mechanistic Investigations of Metal‐Bacteria Interactions

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
It is well established that the antibacterial properties of metals have tremendous importance for bioengineering applications. What is not as appreciated, however, is the reproducibility crisis in this field's vast literature. In this perspective, we highlight this reproducibility problem, discuss its sources, and suggest solutions towards focused ...

Chiral Phonon–Driven Ultrafast Spin Currents in a Non‐Magnetic Ferroelectric

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Broadband terahertz emission spectroscopy shows signatures of ultrafast spin‐current generation in non‐magnetic ferroelectric β$\beta$’‐In2Se3${\rm In}_2{\rm Se}_3$. Reversal of the emitted field upon sample inversion and substitution of Pt with W indicates spin‐Hall‐mediated charge conversion, while polarization‐resolved measurements reveal ...

Topological dynamics of adiabatic cat states

SciPost Physics
We consider a quantum topological frequency converter, realized by coupling a qubit to two slow harmonic modes. The dynamics of such a system is the quantum analog of topological pumping.

Topological Dynamics in Low-Energy QCD [PDF]

, 2011
In this work we discuss the role of topological degrees of freedom in very low-energy hadronic processes (vacuum polarization and vacuum birefringence). We also present an approach which enables to investigate the microscopic dynamics of non-perturbative

Short and Length‐Independent Group Delay Supported by Topological Edge States in Finite‐Size Su–Schrieffer–Heeger Chains

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates short, length‐independent group delay supported by topological edge states in open Su–Schrieffer–Heeger networks. Strong boundary port coupling enables an order‐of‐magnitude latency reduction compared to bulk modes, alongside robust protection against bulk disorder.

Topological field theory and stochastic dynamics

Nuclear Physics B
In the late 1980s, Baulieu and Grossman demonstrated that the supersymmetric formulation of Langevin stochastic differential equations (SDEs), proposed earlier by Parisi and Sourlas, belongs to the family of Witten-type topological field theories (TFTs).
