The first two successful predictions for amorphous solid experiments by tunneling-two-level-system (TTLS) was phonon echo and saturation phenomena. In this paper by generalizing TTLS to infinite-level-system model with certain randomness and nonlinearity, we prove that phonon echo is a stimulated emission process. The classical infinite-level-system (taking $hbarto 0$ limit) cannot find saturation effect, while quantum infinite-level-system can find it with certain nonlinearity assumed. We also prove that without randomness or nonlinearity neither phonon echo nor saturation exists in arbitrary infinite-level-system.

We study properties of thermal transport and quantum many-body chaos in a lattice model with $Ntoinfty$ oscillators per site, coupled by strong nonlinear terms. We first consider a model with only optical phonons. We find that the thermal diffusivity $D_{rm th}$ and chaos diffusivity $D_L$ (defined as $D_L = v_B^2/ lambda_L$, where $v_B$ and $lambda_L$ are the butterfly velocity and the scrambling rate, respectively) satisfy $D_{rm th} approx gamma D_L$ with $gammagtrsim 1$. At intermediate temperatures, the model exhibits a ``quantum phonon fluid regime, where both diffusivities satisfy $D^{-1} propto T$, and the thermal relaxation time and inverse scrambling rate are of the order the of Planckian timescale $hbar/k_B T$. We then introduce acoustic phonons to the model and study their effect on transport and chaos. The long-wavelength acoustic modes remain long-lived even when the system is strongly coupled, due to Goldstones theorem. As a result, for $d=1,2$, we find that $D_{rm th}/D_Lto infty$, while for $d=3$, $D_{rm th}$ and $D_{L}$ remain comparable.
We present neutron scattering measurements of the dynamic structure factor, $S(Q,omega)$, of amorphous solid helium confined in 47 $AA$ pore diameter MCM-41 at pressure 48.6 bar. At low temperature, $T$ = 0.05 K, we observe $S(Q,omega)$ of the confin ed quantum amorphous solid plus the bulk polycrystalline solid between the MCM-41 powder grains. No liquid-like phonon-roton modes, other sharply defined modes at low energy ($omega<$ 1.0 meV) or modes unique to a quantum amorphous solid that might suggest superflow are observed. Rather the $S(Q,omega)$ of confined amorphous and bulk polycrystalline solid appear to be very similar. At higher temperature ($T>$ 1 K), the amorphous solid in the MCM-41 pores melts to a liquid which has a broad $S(Q,omega)$ peaked near $omega simeq$ 0 characteristic of normal liquid $^4$He under pressure. Expressions for the $S(Q,omega)$ of amorphous and polycrystalline solid helium are presented and compared. In previous measurements of liquid $^4$He confined in MCM-41 at lower pressure the intensity in the liquid roton mode decreases with increasing pressure until the roton vanishes at the solidification pressure (38 bars), consistent with no roton in the solid observed here.
We propose a generic scaling theory for critical phenomena that includes power-law and essential singularities in finite and infinite dimensional systems. In addition, we clarify its validity by analyzing the Potts model in a simple hierarchical netw ork, where a saddle-node bifurcation of the renormalization-group fixed point governs the essential singularity.
We review a collection of models of random simplicial complexes together with some of the most exciting phenomena related to them. We do not attempt to cover all existing models, but try to focus on those for which many important results have been re cently established rigorously in mathematics, especially in the context of algebraic topology. In application to real-world systems, the reviewed models are typically used as null models, so that we take a statistical stance, emphasizing, where applicable, the entropic properties of the reviewed models. We also review a collection of phenomena and features observed in these models, and split the presented results into two classes: phase transitions and distributional limits. We conclude with an outline of interesting future research directions.
It is known by now that amorphous solids at zero temperature do not possess a nonlinear elasticity theory: besides the shear modulus which exists, all the higher order coefficients do not exist in the thermodynamic limit. Here we show that the same p henomenon persists up to temperatures comparable to the glass transition. The zero temperature mechanism due to the prevalence of dangerous plastic modes of the Hessian matrix is replaced by anomalous stress fluctuations that lead to the divergence of the variances of the higher order elastic coefficients. The conclusion is that in amorphous solids elasticity can never be decoupled from plasticity: the nonlinear response is very substantially plastic.
