We reveal new stripe states in deformed hexagonal array of photonic wave guides when the array is terminated to have a ribbon-shaped geometry. Unlike the well-known zero energy edge modes of honeycomb ribbon, the new one-dimensional states are shown to originate from high-energy saddle-shaped photonic bands of the ribbon’s twodimensional counterpart. We find that the strain field deforming the ...

We show that string theory with Dirichlet boundaries is equivalent to string theory containing surfaces with certain singular points. Surface curvature is singular at these points. A singular point is resolved in conformal coordinates to a circle with Dirichlet boundary conditions. We also show that moduli parameters of singular surfaces coincide with those of smooth surfaces with boundaries. S...

We numerically investigate the supercooled dynamics of two simple model liquids exploiting the partition of the multidimensional configuration space in basins of attraction of the stationary points (inherent saddles) of the potential energy surface. We find that the inherent saddle order and potential energy are well-defined functions of the temperature T. Moreover, by decreasing T, the saddle ...

EON is a software package that uses distributed computing, systematic coarse graining and bookkeeping of minima and first order saddle points too speed up adaptive kinetic Monte Carlo simulations. It can be used to optimize continuously differentiable functions of a large number of variables. The approach is based on finding minima of the cost function by traversing low-lying, first-order saddl...

Abstract We consider a surface with negative curvature in $${{\mathbb {R}}}^3,$$ R 3 , which is cubic perturbation of the saddle. For this surface, we prove new restriction theorem, analogous to theorem for paraboloids proved by L...

In this paper we compare the method of Lagrangian descriptors with classical Poincare maps for revealing phase space structure two degree-of-freedom Hamiltonian systems. The comparison is carried out by considering dynamics a system having valley ridge inflection point (VRI) potential energy surface. VRI surfaces have four critical points: high saddle and lower separating wells. between points ...
