Abstract: The chordless cycle sizes of spatially embedded networks are demonstrated to follow an exponential growth law similar to random graphs if the number of nodes Nx is below a critical value N*. For covalent polymer… read more here.

Abstract: We demonstrate the existence of a conceptually distinct topological pumping phenomenon in one-dimensional chains undergoing topological adiabatic cycles. Specifically, for a stack of two semi-infinite chains cycled in opposite directions and coupled at one edge… read more here.
