TLDR
In this paper, a unified introduction to the symmetry analysis and its action on the motion in one-dimensional periodic, both in time and space, potentials is presented. And the analysis is further generalized to quasi-periodic drivings, higher space dimensions, and quantum dynamics.Abstract:
Transport properties of particles and waves in spatially periodic structures that are driven by external time-dependent forces manifestly depend on the space-time symmetries of the corresponding equations of motion. A systematic analysis of these symmetries uncovers the conditions necessary for obtaining directed transport. In this work we give a unified introduction into the symmetry analysis and demonstrate its action on the motion in one-dimensional periodic, both in time and space, potentials. We further generalize the analysis to quasi-periodic drivings, higher space dimensions, and quantum dynamics. Recent experimental results on the transport of cold and ultracold atomic ensembles in ac-driven optical potentials are reviewed as illustrations of theoretical considerations.read more

Universal high-frequency behavior of periodically driven systems: from dynamical stabilization to Floquet engineering
TL;DR: In this article, a general overview of the high-frequency regime in periodically driven systems and three distinct classes of driving protocols in which the infinite-frequency Floquet Hamiltonian is not equal to the time-averaged Hamiltonian are identified.

Bose-Einstein condensation
TL;DR: When a gas of bosonic particles is cooled below a critical temperature, it condenses into a Bose-Einstein condensate as mentioned in this paper, which is the state of the art.

L\'evy walks
TL;DR: The Levy walk model combines two key features, the ability to generate anomalously fast diffusion and a finite velocity of a random walker, and has been widely used in many fields.

Absence of Diffusion in Certain Random Lattices
TL;DR: In this article, a simple model for spin diffusion or conduction in the "impurity band" is presented, which involves transport in a lattice which is in some sense random, and in them diffusion is expected to take place via quantum jumps between localized sites.

Many-Body Physics with Ultracold Gases
TL;DR: In this article, a review of recent experimental and theoretical progress concerning many-body phenomena in dilute, ultracold gases is presented, focusing on effects beyond standard weakcoupling descriptions, such as the Mott-Hubbard transition in optical lattices, strongly interacting gases in one and two dimensions, or lowest-Landau-level physics in quasi-two-dimensional gases in fast rotation.
