  • Test of Self-Organization in Beach Cusp Formation Giovanni Coco,1 T
    JOURNAL OF GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH, VOL. 108, NO. C3, 3101, doi:10.1029/2002JC001496, 2003 Test of self-organization in beach cusp formation Giovanni Coco,1 T. K. Burnet, and B. T. Werner Complex Systems Laboratory, Cecil and Ida Green Institute of Geophysics and Planetary Physics, University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, California, USA Steve Elgar Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, Woods Hole, Massachusetts, USA Received 4 June 2002; revised 6 November 2002; accepted 13 November 2002; published 29 March 2003. [1] Field observations of swash flow patterns and morphology change are consistent with the hypothesis that beach cusps form by self-organization, wherein positive feedback between swash flow and developing morphology causes initial development of the pattern and negative feedback owing to circulation of flow within beach cusp bays causes pattern stabilization. The self-organization hypothesis is tested using measurements from three experiments on a barrier island beach in North Carolina. Beach cusps developed after the beach was smoothed by a storm and after existing beach cusps were smoothed by a bulldozer. Swash front motions were recorded on video during daylight hours, and morphology was measured by surveying at 3–4 hour intervals. Three signatures of self- organization were observed in all experiments. First, time lags between swash front motions in beach cusp bays and horns increase with increasing relief, representing the effect of morphology on flow. Second, differential erosion between bays and horns initially increases with increasing time lag, representing the effect of flow on morphology change because positive feedback causes growth of beach cusps. Third, after initial growth, differential erosion decreases with increasing time lag, representing the onset of negative feedback that stabilizes beach cusps.

  • Modes of Wave-Chaotic Dielectric Resonators
    Modes of wave-chaotic dielectric resonators H. E. Tureci, H. G. L. Schwefel, and A. Douglas Stone Department of Applied Physics, Yale University, New Haven, CT 06520, USA Ph. Jacquod D¶epartement de Physique Th¶eorique, Universit¶e de Geneve, CH-1211 Geneve 4, Switzerland (Dated: October 29, 2003) Dielectric optical micro-resonators and micro-lasers represent a realization of a wave-chaotic sys- tem, where the lack of symmetry in the resonator shape leads to non-integrable ray dynamics. Modes of such resonators display a rich spatial structure, and cannot be classi¯ed through mode indices which would require additional constants of motion in the ray dynamics. Understanding and controlling the emission properties of such resonators requires the investigation of the correspon- dence between classical phase space structures of the ray motion inside the resonator and resonant solutions of the wave equations. We ¯rst discuss the breakdown of the conventional eikonal approx- imation in the short wavelength limit, and motivate the use of phase-space ray tracing and phase space distributions. Next, we introduce an e±cient numerical method to calculate the quasi-bound modes of dielectric resonators, which requires only two diagonalizations per N states, where N is approximately equal to the number of half-wavelengths along the perimeter. The relationship be- tween classical phase space structures and modes is displayed via the Husimi projection technique. Observables related to the emission pattern of the resonator are calculated with high e±ciency. I. INTRODUCTION A promising approach to making compact and high-Q optical resonators is to base them on \totally internally reected” modes of dielectric micro-structures.

In a short time the solution develops transition patterns connected by shock layers and rarefaction layers, when the initial data has finitely many monotone pieces. The existence and uniqueness of the front profiles for both shock layers and rarefaction layers are established. A variational characterization of the wave speed of these profiles is derived. These profiles are shown to be stable. Furthermore, it is proved that solutions with monotone intimal data approach to shock layer or rarefaction layer waves as time goes to infinity.

  • The Emergence of Chaos in Quantum Mechanics
    S S symmetry Article The Emergence of Chaos in Quantum Mechanics Emilio Fiordilino Dipartimento di Fisica e Chimica—Emilio Segrè, Università degli Studi di Palermo, Via Archirafi 36, 90123 Palermo, Italy; emilio.fi[email protected] Received: 4 April 2020; Accepted: 7 May 2020; Published: 8 May 2020 Abstract: Nonlinearity in Quantum Mechanics may have extrinsic or intrinsic origins and is a liable route to a chaotic behaviour that can be of difficult observations. In this paper, we propose two forms of nonlinear Hamiltonian, which explicitly depend upon the phase of the wave function and produce chaotic behaviour. To speed up the slow manifestation of chaotic effects, a resonant laser field assisting the time evolution of the systems causes cumulative effects that might be revealed, at least in principle. The nonlinear Schrödinger equation is solved within the two-state approximation; the solution displays features with characteristics similar to those found in chaotic Classical Mechanics: sensitivity on the initial state, dense power spectrum, irregular filling of the Poincaré map and exponential separation of the trajectories of the Bloch vector s in the Bloch sphere. Keywords: nonlinear Schrödinger equation; chaos; high order harmonic generation 1. Introduction The theory of chaos gained the role of a new paradigm of Science for explaining a large variety of phenomena by introducing the concept of unpredictability within the perimeter of Classical Physics. Chaos occurs when the trajectory of a particle is sensitive to the initial conditions and is produced by a nonlinear equation of motion [1]. As examples we quote the equation for the Duffing oscillator (1918) 3 mx¨ + gx˙ + rx = F cos(wLt) (1) or its elaborated form 3 mx¨ + gx˙ + kx + rx = F cos(wLt) (2) that are among the most studied equation of mathematical physics [1,2] and, as far as we know, cannot be analytically solved.

INTRODUCTION The study of wave propagation in complicated structures can be achieved in the high frequency (or small wavelength) limit by considering the dynamics of rays. The complexity of wave media can be either due to the presence of inhomogeneities (scattering centers) of the wave velocity, or to the geometry of boundaries enclosing a homogeneous medium. It is the latter case that was originally addressed by the field of Quantum Chaos to describe solutions of the Schr¨odinger equation when the classical limit displays chaos.
