Light transport in a highly multimode fiber exhibits complex behavior in space, time,
frequency, and polarization, especially in the presence of mode coupling. The newly …

Linear multimode optical systems have enabled clean experimental observations and the
applications of numerous phenomena that continually extend the boundaries of wave …

Disorder, which qualitatively describes some measure of irregularities in spatial patterns, is
ubiquitous in many-body systems, equilibrium and non-equilibrium states of matter, network …

The optics of correlated disordered media is a conceptually rich research topic emerging at
the interface between the physics of waves in complex media and nanophotonics. Inspired …

We study the propagation of electromagnetic waves in disordered photonic time crystals:
spatially homogenous media whose refractive index changes randomly in time. We find that …

What do lotus flowers have in common with human bones, liquid crystals with colloidal
suspensions, and white beetles with the beautiful stones of the Taj Mahal? The answer is …

One of the most interesting phenomena in solid-state physics is Anderson localization,
which predicts that an electron may become immobile when placed in a disordered lattice …

Over the past decade, the Anderson localization of light and a wide variety of associated
phenomena have come to the forefront of research. Numerous investigations have been …

We provide an overview of recent experimental and theoretical developments in the area of
optical discrete solitons. By nature, discrete solitons represent self-trapped wavepackets in …

We experimentally investigate the evolution of linear and nonlinear waves in a realization of
the Anderson model using disordered one-dimensional waveguide lattices. Two types of …
