Conspectus The interaction of emitters with plasmonic cavities (PCs) has been studied
extensively during the past decade. Much of the experimental work has focused on the weak …

We propose an experimentally feasible nanophotonic platform for exploring many-body
physics in topological quantum optics. Our system is composed of a two-dimensional lattice …

Maxwell invented a refractive-index profile where light goes in circles and every point is
focused. A device with such a profile is called the Maxwell fisheye and it is an absolute …

We develop an analytic formalism to describe dipole radiation near the Dirac cone of a two-
dimensional photonic crystal slab. In contrast to earlier work, we account for all polarization …

Starting from the wave equation with a non-zero space curvature, a generalized coordinate-
independent expression for the evolution of a light beam on a curved space is derived. By …

The strong coupling of quantum emitters to a cavity mode has been of paramount
importance in the development of quantum optics. Recently, also the strong coupling to …

We consider the propagation of polarized light in a medium with Maxwell fish eye refraction
index profile. We show that polarization violates the additional symmetries of the medium so …

Radiation from a charged particle moving in a medium with a Maxwell's fish-eye refraction
index profile is considered. It is shown that the radiation spectrum has a discrete character …

In the broad realm of applications of quantum thermodynamics, a non-unitary formulation of
theory is particularly well suited for describing the evolution of an open quantum system. The …

We consider the propagation of polarized light in the medium with isotropic refraction index
profile and show that polarization violates the additional symmetries of the medium. Then we …
