We study the relation between quasi-normal modes (QNMs) and transmission resonances (TRs) in one-dimensional (1D) disordered systems. We show for the first time that while each maximum in the transmission coefficient is always related to a QNM, the reverse statement is not necessarily correct. There exists an intermediate state, at which only a part of the QNMs are localized and these QNMs provide a resonant transmission. The rest of the solutions of the eigenvalue problem (denoted as strange quasi-modes) are never found in regular open cavities and resonators, and arise exclusively due to random scatterings. Although these strange QNMs belong to a discrete spectrum, they are not localized and not associated with any anomalies in the transmission. The ratio of the number of the normal QNMs to the total number of QNMs is independent of the type of disorder, and slightly deviates from the constant $sqrt{2/5}$ in rather large ranges of the strength of a single scattering and the length of the random sample.

Tunnelling Two-Level Systems (TLS) dominate the physics of glasses at low temperatures. Yet TLS are extremely rare and it is extremely difficult to directly observe them $it{in , silico}$. It is thus crucial to develop simple structural predictors th at can provide markers for determining if a TLS is present in a given glass region. It has been speculated that Quasi-Localized vibrational Modes (QLM) are closely related to TLS, and that one can extract information about TLS from QLM. In this work we address this possibility. In particular, we investigate the degree to which a linear or non-linear vibrational mode analysis can predict the location of TLS independently found by energy landscape exploration. We find that even though there is a notable spatial correlation between QLM and TLS, in general TLS are strongly non-linear and their global properties cannot be predicted by a simple normal mode analysis.
We study, theoretically and experimentally, disorder-induced resonances in randomly-layered samples,and develop an algorithm for the detection and characterization of the effective cavities that give rise to these resonances. This algorithm enables u s to find the eigen-frequencies and pinpoint the locations of the resonant cavities that appear in individual realizations of random samples, for arbitrary distributions of the widths and refractive indices of the layers. Each cavity is formed in a region whose size is a few localization lengths. Its eigen-frequency is independent of the location inside the sample, and does not change if the total length of the sample is increased by, for example, adding more scatterers on the sides. We show that the total number of cavities, $N_{mathrm{cav}}$, and resonances, $N_{mathrm{res}}$, per unit frequency interval is uniquely determined by the size of the disordered system and is independent of the strength of the disorder. In an active, amplifying medium, part of the cavities may host lasing modes whose number is less than $N_{mathrm{res}}$. The ensemble of lasing cavities behaves as distributed feedback lasers, provided that the gain of the medium exceeds the lasing threshold, which is specific for each cavity. We present the results of experiments carried out with single-mode optical fibers with gain and randomly-located resonant Bragg reflectors (periodic gratings). When the fiber was illuminated by a pumping laser with an intensity high enough to overcome the lasing threshold, the resonances revealed themselves by peaks in the emission spectrum. Our experimental results are in a good agreement with the theory presented here.
A microwave setup for mode-resolved transport measurement in quasi-one-dimensional (quasi-1D) structures is presented. We will demonstrate a technique for direct measurement of the Greens function of the system. With its help we will investigate quas i-1D structures with various types of disorder. We will focus on stratified structures, i.e., structures that are homogeneous perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. In this case the interaction between different channels is absent, so wave propagation occurs individually in each open channel. We will apply analytical results developed in the theory of one-dimensional (1D) disordered models in order to explain main features of the quasi-1D transport. The main focus will be selective transport due to long-range correlations in the disorder. In our setup, we can intentionally introduce correlations by changing the positions of periodically spaced brass bars of finite thickness. Because of the equivalence of the stationary Schrodinger equation and the Helmholtz equation, the result can be directly applied to selective electron transport in nanowires, nanostripes, and superlattices.
We study the effects of disorder on a Kitaev chain with longer-range hopping and pairing terms which is capable of forming local zero energy excitations and, hence, serves as a minimal model for localization-protected edge qubits. The clean phase dia gram hosts regions with 0, 1, and 2 Majorana zero-modes (MZMs) per edge. Using a semi-analytic approach corroborated by numerical calculations of the entanglement degeneracy, we show how phase boundaries evolve under the influence of disorder. While in general the 2 MZM region is stable with respect to moderate disorder, stronger values drive transition towards the topologically trivial phase. We uncover regions where the addition of disorder induces local zero-modes absent for the corresponding clean system. Interestingly, we discover that disorder destroys any direct transition between phases with zero and two MZMs by creating a tricritical point at the 2-0 MZM boundary of the clean system. Finally, motivated by recent experiments, we calculate the characteristic signatures of the disorder phase diagram as measured in dynamical local and non-local qubit correlation functions. Our work provides a minimal starting point to investigate the coherence properties of local qubits in the presence of disorder.
We study the interaction of Anderson localized states in an open 1D random system by varying the internal structure of the sample. As the frequencies of two states come close, they are transformed into multiply-peaked quasi-extended modes. Level repu lsion is observed experimentally and explained within a model of coupled resonators. The spectral and spatial evolution of the coupled modes is described in terms of the coupling coefficient and Q-factors of resonators.
