We study the approximate cloaking via transformation optics for electromagnetic waves in the time harmonic regime in which the cloaking device {\it only} consists of a layer constructed by the mapping technique. Due to the fact that…
A rectangular "shifting cloak", which visually shifts the cloaked object for a certain distance from the original place, is proposed. Comparing with the previously proposed similar cloaks, this rectangular shifting cloak has a much simpler…
Super-oscillating beams can be used to create light spots whose size is below the diffraction limit with a side ring of high intensity adjacent to them. Optical traps made of the super-oscillating part of such beams exhibit superior…

Various threshold effects are investigated on a discrete quasi-1D scattering system. In particular, one of these effects is to add corrections to Levinson's theorem. We explain how these corrections are due to the opening or to the closing…
Variable projection solves structured optimization problems by completely minimizing over a subset of the variables while iterating over the remaining variables. Over the last 30 years, the technique has been widely used, with empirical and…
Computer simulations of hard spheres and disks are used to estimate the most probable cavity size, $\xi_{\rm cavity}$, and a ``rattle'' size, $\xi_{\rm rattle}$, over which a particle can translate holding all other particles fixed. Both of…
Achieving exact unidirectional invisibility in a finite frequency band has been an outstanding problem for many years. We offer a simple solution to this problem in two dimensions that is based on our solution to another more basic open…

In this work we theoretically propose scattering cancellation-based cloaks for heat waves that obey the Maxwell-Cattaneo equation. The proposed cloaks possess carefully tailored diffusivity to cancel the dipole scattering from the object…
We consider an ideal invisibility cloak which is illuminated by monochromatic light and which moves in vacuum at constant relativistic velocity with respect to the common inertial frame of light source and observer. We show that, in…
This paper aims at providing a small-volume expansion framework for the scattering resonances of an open cavity perturbed by small particles. The induced shift of the scattering frequencies by the small particles is derived without…
A fundamental problem in computer vision is that of inferring the intrinsic, 3D structure of the world from flat, 2D images of that world. Traditional methods for recovering scene properties such as shape, reflectance, or illumination rely…

Asymptotic solution to many-body wave scattering problem is given in the case of many small scatterers. The small scatterers can be particles whose physical properties are described by the boundary impedances, or they can be small…
In this paper, we establish approximate cloaking for the heat equation via transformation optics. We show that the degree of visibility is of the order $\epsilon$ in three dimensions and $|\ln\epsilon|^{-1}$ in two dimensions, where…
We perceive the world through images formed by scattering. The ability to interpret scattering data mathematically has opened to our scrutiny the constituents of matter, the building blocks of life, and the remotest corners of the universe.…
An invisibility cloak that can hide an arbitrary object external to the cloak itself has not been devised before. In this Letter, we introduce a novel way to design a remote cloaking device that makes any object located at a certain…
