This paper presents a windowed Green function (WGF) method for the numerical solution of problems of elastic scattering by "locally-rough surfaces" (i.e., local perturbations of a half space), under either Dirichlet or Neumann boundary…
Based on the renormalisability of the SU(n) theory with massive gauge bosons, we start with the path integral of the generating functional for the renormalized Green functions and develop a method to construct the scattering matrix so that…

We study quantum scattering theory off $n$ point inhomogeneities ($n\in\bbN$) in three dimensions. The inhomogeneities (or generalized point interactions) positioned at $\{\xi_1,...,\xi_n\}\subset\bbR^3$ are modeled in terms of the $n^2$…
Correlations of ambient seismic or acoustic vibrations are now widely used to reconstruct the impulse response between two passive receivers as if a source was placed at one of them. This provides the opportunity to do imaging without a…

Recently, general point interactions in one dimension has been used to model a large number of different phenomena in quantum mechanics. Such potentials, however, requires some sort of regularization to lead to meaningful results. The usual…
The single-particle Green's function (GF) of mesoscopic structures plays a central role in mesoscopic quantum transport. The recursive GF technique is a standard tool to compute this quantity numerically, but it lacks physical transparency…

A general proof of the optical theorem (also known as the optical cross-section theorem) is presented that reveals the intimate connection between the forward scattering amplitude and the absorption-plus-scattering of the incident wave…
The study of wave propagation and scattering in time-dependent materials is a rapidly growing field of research. Whereas for 1D applications there is a simple relation between the wave equations for space-dependent and time-dependent…
Two different versions of an optical theorem for a scattering body embedded inside a lossy background medium are derived in this paper. The corresponding fundamental upper bounds on absorption are then obtained in closed form by elementary…
In non-classical linear transport the chord length distribution between collisions is non-exponential and attenuation does not respect Beer's law. Generalized radiative transfer (GRT) extends the classical theory to account for such…
We address an important issue of a dynamic homogenisation in vector elasticity for a doubly periodic mass-spring elastic lattice. The notion of logarithmically growing resonant waves is used in a complete analysis of star-shaped wave forms…
