This paper presents a matrix formulation of the scalar laws of radiative transfer. The method applies to coupled mixed boundary condition problems on general domains. Participating media can range from transparent to absorbing, emitting,…
It is proved that every convex body in the plane has a point such that the union of the body and its image under reflection in the point is convex. If the body is not centrally symmetric, then it has, in fact, three affinely independent…
In this paper we consider families of multiparametric $R$-matrices to make a systematic study of the boundary Yang-Baxter equations in order to discuss the corresponding families of multiparametric $K$-matrices. Our results are indeed…
We study the conditions for classical r-matrices to be compatible with the generalised Chern-Simons action for 3d gravity. Compatibility means solving the classical Yang-Baxter equations with a prescribed symmetric part for each of the real…
We point out the presence of a $T \to -T$ temperature-reflection ($T$-reflection) symmetry for the partition functions of many physical systems. Without knowledge of the origin of the symmetry, we have only been able to test the existence…
In this paper, we investigate statistics on alternating words under correspondence between ``possible reflection paths within several layers of glass'' and ``alternating words''. For $v=(v_1,v_2,\cdots,v_n)\in\mathbb{Z}^{n}$, we say $P$ is…
This work develops new numerical methods for the solution of the tomography problem in domains with reflecting obstacles. We compare the solution's performance for Lambertian reflection, for classical tomography with ubroken rays and for…
This paper analyzes the nonlinear correspondence between the reflectivity profile (model) and the plane wave impulse response at the boundary (data) for a three-dimensional half space consisting of a sequence of homogeneous horizontal…
There are many examples of optimization problems whose associated polyhedra can be described much nicer, and with way less inequalities, by projections of higher dimensional polyhedra than this would be possible in the original space.…
We present an analysis of suitable rotation curves (RCs) of eight galaxies, aimed at checking the consistency and universality of the gravitational suppression (GraS) hypothesis, a phenomenological model for a new interaction between dark…
We consider noncrossing partitions of [n] under the action of (i) the reflection group (of order 2), (ii) the rotation group (cyclic of order n) and (iii) the rotation/reflection group (dihedral of order 2n). First, we exhibit a bijection…
In the present paper, we derive formulas of complex and $\ell$-adic multiple polylogarithms, which have two aspects: a duality in terms of indexes and a reflection in terms of variables. We provide an algebraic proof of these formulas by…
We present a parabolic approximation that incorporates reflection. With this approximation, there is no need to solve the parabolic equation for a coupled pair of solutions consisting of the incident and reflected waves. Rather, this…
We present linear response theories in the continuum capable of describing continuum spectra and dynamical correlations of finite systems with no spatial symmetry. Our formulation is essentially the same as the continuum random-phase…
Elliptic diagonal solutions for the reflection matrices associated to the elliptic $R$ matrix of the eight vertex free fermion model are presented. They lead through the second derivative of the open chain transfer matrix to an XY…
Let $X$ be a nonempty real variety that is invariant under the action of a reflection group $G$. We conjecture that if $X$ is defined in terms of the first $k$ basic invariants of $G$ (ordered by degree), then $X$ meets a $k$-dimensional…
We consider the algebraic Riccati equation for which the four coefficient matrices form an M-matrix K. When K is a nonsingular M-matrix or an irreducible singular M-matrix, the Riccati equation is known to have a minimal nonnegative…
We study the global solution curves, and prove the existence of infinitely many positive solutions for three classes of self-similar equations, with $p$-Laplace operator. In case $p=2$, these are well-known problems involving the Gelfand…
Isolated, steady-state galaxies correspond to equilibrium solutions of the Poisson--Vlasov system. We show that (i) all galaxies with a distribution function depending on energy alone must be spherically symmetric and (ii) all axisymmetric…
In this paper we show for the first time the phenomenon of negative reflection in a simple mechanical structure. The latter is a grating of fixed inclusions embedded in a linear elastic matrix. Numerical analyses for out-of-plane shear…
