Bilinear estimates for the wave equation in Minkowski space are normally proven using the Fourier transform and Plancherel's theorem. However, such methods are difficult to carry over to non-flat situations (such as wave equations with…

This article proposes a novel analytical model for the anisotropic multi-layer structures containing magnetically biased graphene sheets. The multi-layer structure is composed of various magnetic materials. An external magnetic field is…

By the use of Green's second integral identity we determine the field scattered from a two-dimensional randomly rough isotropic or anisotropic Dirichlet or Neumann surface when it is illuminated by a scalar Gaussian beam. The integral…

We revisit one class of z-invariant WaveFront sensor where the LGS is fired aside of the telescope aperture. In this way there is a spatial dependence on the focal plane with respect to the height where the resonant scattering occurs. We…

We theoretically study negative refraction of inhomogeneous waves at the interface of lossy isotropic media. We obtain explicit (up to the sign) expressions for the parameters of a wave transmitted through the interface between two lossy…

We briefly review some basic concepts of parallel displacement in Finsler geometry. In general relativity, the parallel translation of objects along the congruence of the fundamental observer corresponds to the evolution in time. By…
