We review recent progress on the zero-range process, a model of interacting particles which
hop between the sites of a lattice with rates that depend on the occupancy of the departure …

Recent advances in understanding model systems of wet granular materials are presented,
with particular emphasis on statistical concepts, dynamics, and phase transitions. It is …

A shallow, vertically shaken granular bed in a quasi-two-dimensional container is explored
experimentally yielding a wider variety of phenomena than in any previous study:(1) …

From our childhood, we remember the pasty consistency of wet sand, out of which we baked
our first 'cakes' in the sand box; soft enough to be squished and formed by our little hands …

Exact chirped self-similar solutions of the generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation with
varying dispersion, nonlinearity, gain or absorption, and nonlinear gain have been found …

We study real-space condensation in a broad class of stochastic mass transport models. We
show that the steady state of such models has a pair-factorized form which generalizes the …

We analytically explore a wide class of optical similariton solutions to the nonlinear
Schrödinger equation appropriately modified to model beam propagation in a tapered …

The spontaneous clustering of a vibrofluidized granular gas is employed to generate
directed transport in two different compartmentalized systems: a granular fountain in which …

We present exact analytical solutions describing spatial bright, trigonometric, and kink-type
of self-similar waves, as well as the trains of such waves to the nonlinear Schrödinger …

Ultrashort-pulse propagation in asymmetric twin-core fiber amplifiers is studied with the aid
of self-similarity analysis of the nonlinear Schrödinger-type equation interacting with a …
