    Coherent Control of Ultrafast Linear and Nonlinear Optical Phenomena in Nanostructures

    We theoretically investigate the unique possibility to control distribution of ultrafast local optical fields, both linear and nonlinear, in nanosystems with nanometer spatial resolution and in time on the fem...

    SPASER as Ultrafast Nanoscale Phenomenon and Device

    We theoretically introduce surface plasmon amplification by stimulated emission of radiation (SPASER) as an ultrafast phenomenon and device. Spaser is predicted to generate femtosecond, nanoscale-localized pul...

    A Mixed-Transfer-Matrix Method for Simulating Normal Conductor/Perfect Insulator/Perfect Conductor Random Networks

    We develop a mixed-transfer-matrix approach for computing the macroscopic conductivity of a three-constituent normal conductor/perfect insulator/perfect conductor random network. This is applied to two-dimensi...

    Response of Composite Media Made of Weakly Nonlinear Constituents

    Electrical and optical properties of weakly nonlinear composite media are reviewed. A simple perturbation theory can account for many properties, including enhancement of macroscopic nonlinear response near a ...

    Effective medium approximation for strongly nonlinear media

    The effective medium approximation is one of the most popular approximations used for calculating the effective coefficients of linear composite media. When the same approach is applied to the case of power-la...

    Weakly nonlinear conductivity of random composites: A series expansion approach

    We present a series expansion calculation of the bulk effective coefficient of weakly nonlinear behavior in some continuum composite conductors and in simple cubic random resistor networks. The expansion is in...

    Current distribution on a three-dimensional, bond-diluted, random-resistor network at the percolation threshold

    Current and logarithm-current distributions on a three-dimensional random-bond percolation cubic network were studied at the percolation threshold by computer simulations. Predictions of a hierarchical model t...

    Discrete network models for the low-field Hall effect near a percolation threshold: Theory and simulations

    The critical behavior of the weak-field Hall effect near a percolation threshold is studied with the help of two discrete random network models. Many finite realizations of such networks at the percolation thr...

    Critical Behavior of Elastic Stiffness Moduli in a Random Network of Rigid and Nonrigid Bonds

    For many years no research was done on elastic properties near the percolation threshold of a composite medium, even though at the same time the electrical properties of such media were being investigated very...

    Hydrodynamic Theory of Fourth Sound in a Moving Superfluid — A Discussion of Size Effects

    A previous discussion of fourth sound in a moving superfluid is extended to include a detailed estimate of size effects. Comparison with experiment still shows a considerable disagreement. This might indicate ...

    Hydrodynamic theory of fourth sound in clamped conditions

    The hydrodynamic theory of fourth sound is developed in detail for the cases of a flat capillary and a porous superleak filled with superfluid helium whose normal fluid motion is completely clamped. The attenu...

    Bose-Einstein condensation in one- and two-dimensional gases

    Bose-Einstein Condensation in Two-Dimensional Systems
