The interplay of nonlinearity with lattice discreteness leads to phenomena and propagation
properties quite distinct from those appearing in continuous nonlinear systems. For a large …

This review presents a unified view on the problem of Anderson localization in one-
dimensional weakly disordered systems with short-range and long-range statistical …

In this work we consider the role of aperiodic order in different domains of science and
technology from an interdisciplinary approach. To start with, we introduce some general …

In this work we consider the role of aperiodic order—order without periodicity—in the design
of different optical devices in one, two and three dimensions. To this end, we will first study …

We study the electronic properties of GaAs-AlGaAs superlattices with intentional correlated
disorder by means of photoluminescence and vertical dc resistance. The results are …

One of the Top Selling Physics Books according to YBP Library ServicesOrder can be found
in all the structures unfolding around us at different scales, including in the arrangements of …

We report on a new class of critical states in the energy spectrum of general Fibonacci
systems. By introducing a transfer matrix renormalization technique, we prove that the …

Light localization in disordered systems and Bragg scattering in regular periodic structures
are considered traditionally as two entirely opposite phenomena: disorder leads to …

This book provides an interdisciplinary guide to quasicrystals, the 2011 Nobel Prize in
Chemistry winning topic, by presenting an up-to-date and detailed introduction to the many …

We prove that a tight-binding ladder network composed of atomic sites with on-site
potentials distributed according to the quasiperiodic Aubry model can exhibit a metal …
