We consider the reflection-transmission problem in a waveguide with obstacle. At certain frequencies, for some incident waves, intensity is perfectly transmitted and the reflected field decays exponentially at infinity. In this work, we show that such reflectionless modes can be characterized as eigenfunctions of an original non-selfadjoint spectral problem. In order to select ingoing waves on one side of the obstacle and outgoing waves on the other side, we use complex scalings (or Perfectly Matched Layers) with imaginary parts of different signs. We prove that the real eigenvalues of the obtained spectrum correspond either to trapped modes (or bound states in the continuum) or to reflectionless modes. Interestingly, complex eigenvalues also contain useful information on weak reflection cases. When the geometry has certain symmetries, the new spectral problem enters the class of $mathcal{PT}$-symmetric problems.

We develop the theory of a special type of scattering state in which a set of asymptotic channels are chosen as inputs and the complementary set as outputs, and there is zero reflection back into the input channels. In general an infinite number of s uch solutions exist at discrete complex frequencies. Our results apply to linear electromagnetic and acoustic wave scattering and also to quantum scattering, in all dimensions, for arbitrary geometries including scatterers in free space, and for any choice of the input/output sets. We refer to such a state as reflection-zero (R-zero) when it occurs off the real-frequency axis and as an Reflectionless Scattering Mode (RSM) when it is tuned to a real frequency as a steady-state solution. Such reflectionless behavior requires a specific monochromatic input wavefront, given by the eigenvector of a filtered scattering matrix with eigenvalue zero. Steady-state RSMs may be realized by index tuning which do not break flux conservation or by gain-loss tuning. RSMs of flux-conserving cavities are bidirectional while those of non-flux-conserving cavities are generically unidirectional. Cavities with ${cal PT}$-symmetry have unidirectional R-zeros in complex-conjugate pairs, implying that reflectionless states naturally arise at real frequencies for small gain-loss parameter but move into the complex-frequency plane after a spontaneous ${cal PT}$-breaking transition. Numerical examples of RSMs are given for one-dimensional cavities with and without gain/loss, a ${cal PT}$ cavity, a two-dimensional multiwaveguide junction, and a two-dimensional deformed dielectric cavity in free space. We outline and implement a general technique for solving such problems, which shows promise for designing photonic structures which are perfectly impedance-matched for specific inputs, or can perfectly convert inputs from one set of modes to a complementary set.

Context: We integrate the 2D MHD ideal equations of a straight slab to simulate observational results associated with fundamental sausage trapped modes. Aims: Starting from a non-equilibrium state with a dense chromospheric layer, we analyse the evol ution of the internal plasma dynamics of magnetic loops, subject to line-tying boundary conditions, and with the coronal parameters described in Asai et al. (2001) and Melnikov et al. (2002) to investigate the onset and damping of sausage modes. Methods: To integrate the equations we used a high resolution shock-capturing (HRSC) method specially designed to deal appropriately with flow discontinuities. Results: Due to non-linearities and inhomogeneities, pure modes are difficult to sustain and always occur coupled among them so as to satisfy, e.g., the line-tying constraint. We found that, in one case, the resonant coupling of the sausage fundamental mode with a slow one results in a non-dissipative damping of the former. Conclusions: In scenarios of thick and dense loops, where the analytical theory predicts the existence of fundamental trapped sausage modes, the coupling of fast and slow quasi-periodic modes -with a node at the center of the longitudinal speed- occur contributing to the damping of the fast mode. If a discontinuity in the total pressure between the loop and the corona is assumed, a fundamental fast sausage transitory leaky regime is spontaneously produced and an external compressional Alfven wave takes away the magnetic energy.
We study the richer structures of quasi-one-dimensional Bogoliubov-de Genes collective excitations of F = 1 spinor Bose-Einstein condensate in a harmonic trap potential loaded in an optical lattice. Employing a perturbative method we report general a nalytical expressions for the confined collective polar and ferromagnetic Goldstone modes. In both cases the excited eigenfrequencies are given as function of the 1D effective coupling constants, trap frequency and optical lattice parameters. It is shown that the main contribution of the optical lattice laser intensity is to shift the confined phonon frequencies. Moreover, for high intensities, the excitation spectrum becomes independent of the self-interaction parameters. We reveal some features of the evolution for the Goldstone modes as well as the condensate densities from the ferromagnetic to the polar phases.
We study a simple model consisting of an atomic ion and a polar molecule trapped in a single setup, taking into consideration their electrostatic interaction. We determine analytically their collective modes of excitation as a function of their masse s, trapping frequencies, distance, and the molecules electric dipole moment. We then discuss the application of these collective excitations to cool molecules, to entangle molecules and ions, and to realize two-qubit gates between them. We finally present a numerical analysis of the possibility of applying these tools to study magnetically ordered phases of two-dimensional arrays of polar molecules, a setup proposed to quantum-simulate some strongly-correlated models of condensed matter.
We report on the observation of a collective spin mode in a spinor Bose-Einstein condensate. Initially, all spins point perpendicular to the external magnetic field. The lowest energy mode consists in a sinusoidal oscillation of the local spin around its original axis, with an oscillation amplitude that linearly depends on the spatial coordinates. The frequency of the oscillation is set by the zero-point kinetic energy of the BEC. The observations are in excellent agreement with hydrodynamic equations. The observed spin mode has a universal character, independent of the atomic spin and spin-dependent contact interactions.
