A typical singularity of elastic wave propagation, often termed a shear-wave singularity, takes place when the Christoffel equation has a double root or, equivalently, two out of three slowness or phase-velocity sheets share a common point.…

We study a new mechanism of wave/electron scattering in multi-mode surface-corrugated waveguides/wires. This mechanism is due to specific square-gradient terms in an effective Hamiltonian describing the surface scattering, that were…
We prove an analogue of Shnirelman, Zelditch and Colin de Verdiere's Quantum Ergodicity Theorems in a case where there is no underlying classical ergodicity. The system we consider is the Laplacian with a delta potential on the square…
We consider transverse propagation of electromagnetic waves through a two-dimensional composite material containing a periodic rectangular array of circular cylinders. Propagation of waves is described by the Helmholtz equation with the…

To study the geometry of Gerstner's water wave model, we analyse the velocity of his fluid particles in a reference frame that moves with the wave. Gerstner wave profiles are cycloidal, curtate (flattened) trochoids, or prolate (extended)…
