The (interior) transmission eigenvalue problems are a type of non-elliptic, non-selfadjoint and nonlinear spectral problems that arise in the theory of wave scattering. They connect to the direct and inverse scattering problems in many…
A hierarchical froth model of the interface of a random $q$-state Potts ferromagnet in $2D$ is studied by recursive methods. A fraction $p$ of the nearest neighbour bonds is made inaccessible to domain walls by infinitely strong…
The purpose of this article is to explore the properties of integrable, purely transmitting, defects placed at the junctions of several one-dimensional domains within a network. The defect sewing conditions turn out to be quite restrictive…
We consider the numerical homogenization of a class of fractal elliptic interface problems inspired by related mechanical contact problems from the geosciences. A particular feature is that the solution space depends on the actual fractal…

In this paper, we consider an interior transmission eigenvalue (ITE) problem on some compact $C^{\infty }$-Riemannian manifolds with a common smooth boundary. In particular, these manifolds may have different topologies, but we impose some…
We study derivations and Fredholm modules on metric spaces with a local regular conservative Dirichlet form. In particular, on finitely ramified fractals, we show that there is a non-trivial Fredholm module if and only if the fractal is not…
Self-similarity is a property of fractal structures, a concept introduced by Mandelbrot and one of the fundamental mathematical results of the 20th century. The importance of fractal geometry stems from the fact that these structures were…
The problem of heat conduction in one-dimensional piecewise homogeneous composite materials is examined by providing an explicit solution of the one-dimensional heat equation in each domain. The location of the interfaces is known, but…
An essential attribute of many fractal structures is self-similarity. A Sierpinski gasket (SPG) triangle is a promising example of a fractal lattice that exhibits localized energy eigenstates. In the present work, for the first time we…

In this work, we present a new solution representation for the Helmholtz transmission problem in a bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^2$ with a thin and periodic layer of finite length. The layer may consists of a periodic pertubation of the…
So far the problem of interface behavior upon phase transition has not yet acquired a satisfactory mathematical formulation due to a variety of the physical phenomena involved. Analytical solutions exist only for elementary problems…
We consider the problem of minimizing the Willmore energy connected surfaces with prescribed surface area which are confined to a finite container. To this end, we approximate the surface by a phase field function $u$ taking values close to…
We study the convergence of resistance metrics and resistance forms on a converging sequence of spaces. As an application, we study the existence and uniqueness of self-similar Dirichlet forms on Sierpinski gaskets with added rotated…
We transform an inverse scattering problem to be an interior transmission problem. We find an inverse uniqueness on the scatterer with a knowledge of a fixed interior transmission eigenvalue. By examining the solution in a series of…
In previous papers by A. Kameyama and by J. Kigami distances on fractals have been discussed having two different but similar properties. One property is that the maps defining the fractal are Lipschitz of prescribed constants less than 1,…
Scattering from conformal interfaces in two dimensions is universal in that the flux of reflected and transmitted energy does not depend on the details of the initial state. In this letter, we present the first gravitational calculation of…
