Inversion theorems of Wiener type are essential tools in analysis and number theory. We derive a weighted version of an inversion theorem of Wiener type for general Dirichlet series from that of Edwards from 1957, and we outline an…

We consider the scattering problem governed by the Helmholtz equation with inhomogeneity in both `conductivity' in the divergence form and `potential' in the lower order term. The support of the inhomogeneity is assumed to contain a convex…

We show that a particular form of target propagation, i.e., relying on learned inverses of each layer, which is differential, i.e., where the target is a small perturbation of the forward propagation, gives rise to an update rule which…
