In a recent work the resonance widths in a microwave billiard with attached waveguide were
studied in dependence on the coupling strength [E. Persson et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 85, 2478 …

We present an efficient method to solve scattering problems in two-dimensional open
billiards with two leads and a complicated scattering region. The basic idea is to transform …

We derive expressions for the scattering matrix and the Wigner-Smith delay time, applicable
to open systems in two and three spatial dimensions, in terms of a non-Hermitian effective …

Abstract Systems with space periodic Hamiltonians have unique scattering properties. The
discrete translational symmetry associated with periodicity of the Hamiltonian creates …

Thermoelectric efficiency of nanowires is shown to be enhanced when they have disordered
surfaces with long range correlations. To show this effect, one needs to solve Schrödinger …

In the late 1970s, the field of “quantum chaos” underwent a transformation when two
seemingly different branches of physics, random matrix theory and chaos theory, merged …
