We study the boundary control of solutions of the Helmholtz and Maxwell equations to enforce local non-zero constraints. These constraints may represent the local absence of nodal or critical points, or that certain functionals depending on…
The focus of this paper is to show the absence of critical points for the solutions to the Helmholtz equation in a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{3}$, given by \[ \left\{ \begin{array}{l} -\rm{div}(a\,\nabla u_{\omega}^{g})-\omega…
We shall give a priori conditions on the illuminations $\phi_i$ such that the solutions to the Helmholtz equation $-div(a \nabla u^i)-k q u^i=0$ in \Omega, $u^i=\phi_i$ on $\partial\Omega$, and their gradients satisfy certain non-zero and…
We consider the inverse problem of reconstructing general solutions to the Helmholtz equation on some domain $\Omega$ from their values at scattered points $x_1,\dots,x_n\subset \Omega$. This problem typically arises when sampling acoustic…
The results in \cite{O2} (see \cite{O1} for the quasistatics regime) consider the Helmholtz equation with fixed frequency $k$ and, in particular imply that, for $k$ outside a discrete set of resonant frequencies and given a source region…
We consider a bounded open subset $\Omega$ of ${\mathbb{R}}^n$ of class $C^{1,\alpha}$ for some $\alpha\in]0,1[$ and we solve the Neumann problem for the Helmholtz equation both in $\Omega$ and in the exterior of $\Omega$. We look for…
We consider the numerical solution of high-frequency scattering problems modeled by the Helmholtz equation with a bounded obstacle. Although the analysis of this problem dates back at least 50 years, over the past decade or so, tools and…
We study a new approach to the problem of transparent boundary conditions for the Helmholtz equation in unbounded domains. Our approach is based on the minimization of an integral functional arising from a volume integral formulation of the…
In this paper we present an overview of recent progress on the development and analysis of domain decomposition preconditioners for discretised Helmholtz problems, where the preconditioner is constructed from the corresponding problem with…
We show that the properties of the lower part of the spectrum of the Helmholtz equation for an heterogeneous system in a finite region in $d$ dimensions, where the solutions to the homogeneous problems are known, can be systematically…
We consider one-level additive Schwarz domain decomposition preconditioners for the Helmholtz equation with variable coefficients (modelling wave propagation in heterogeneous media), subject to boundary conditions that include wave…
We consider approximating the solution of the Helmholtz exterior Dirichlet problem for a nontrapping obstacle, with boundary data coming from plane-wave incidence, by the solution of the corresponding boundary value problem where the…
We consider a constrained optimization problem arising from the study of the Helmholtz equation in unbounded domains. The optimization problem provides an approximation of the solution in a bounded computational domain. In this paper we…
We consider a bounded open subset $\Omega$ of ${\mathbb{R}}^n$ of class $C^{1,\alpha}$ for some $\alpha\in]0,1[$, and we define a distributional outward unit normal derivative for $\alpha$-H\"{o}lder continuous solutions of the Helmholtz…
The problem of recovering acoustic sources, more specifically monopoles, from point-wise measurements of the corresponding acoustic pressure at a limited number of frequencies is addressed. To this purpose, a family of sparse optimization…
We consider the time-harmonic Maxwell equations at a nonzero wavenumber $k\in\mathbb{C}$ on a bounded and simply connected Lipschitz domain $\Omega$ with an analytic boundary $\Gamma$, on which we impose impedance boundary conditions. We…
We consider the exterior Dirichlet problem for the heterogeneous Helmholtz equation, i.e. the equation $\nabla\cdot(A \nabla u ) + k^2 n u =-f$ where both $A$ and $n$ are functions of position. We prove new a priori bounds on the solution…
In the junction $\Omega$ of several semi-infinite cylindrical waveguides we consider the Dirichlet Laplacian whose continuous spectrum is the ray $[\lambda_\dagger, +\infty)$ with a positive cut-off value $\lambda_\dagger$. We give two…
In this note we construct smooth bounded domains $\Omega \subset \mathbb R^2$, other than disks, for which the overdetermined problem $$ \left\{ \begin{alignedat}{2} \Delta u + \lambda u &= 0 &\qquad& \text{ in } \Omega, \newline u &= b…
In this article we study a Bernoulli-type free boundary problem and generalize a work of Henrot and Shahgholian in \cite{HS1} to $\mathcal{A}$-harmonic PDEs. These are quasi-linear elliptic PDEs whose structure is modeled on the $p$-Laplace…
