We classify all surfaces with constant Gaussian curvature $K$ in Euclidean $3$-space that can be expressed as an implicit equation of type $f(x)+g(y)+h(z)=0$, where $f$, $g$ and $h$ are real functions of one variable. If $K=0$, we prove…

Three problems for a discrete analogue of the Helmholtz equation are studied analytically using the plane wave decomposition and the Sommerfeld integral approach. They are: 1) the problem with a point source on an entire plane; 2) the…

We consider an inverse problem for a Westervelt type nonlinear wave equation with fractional damping. This equation arises in nonlinear acoustic imaging, and we show the forward problem is locally well-posed. We prove that the smooth…
