We will consider the high frequency behaviour of distorted plane waves on manifolds of nonpositive curvature which are Euclidean or hyperbolic near infinity, under the assumption that the curvature is negative close to the trapped set of…
Distorted plane waves, sometimes called Eisenstein functions, are a family of eigenfunctions of a Schr\"odinger operator that are not square integrable. More precisely, they can be written as the sum of a plane wave and an outgoing wave. We…
We study the dynamics of a quantum particle in R^(n+m) constrained by a strong potential force to stay within a distance of order hbar (in suitable units) from a smooth n-dimensional submanifold M. We prove that in the semiclassical limit…
In this paper, we present a semiclassical description of surface waves or modes in an elastic medium near a boundary, in spatial dimension three. The medium is assumed to be essentially stratified near the boundary at some scale comparable…
We investigate trend to equilibrium for the damped wave equation with a confining potential in the Euclidean space. We provide with necessary and sufficient geometric conditions for the energy to decay exponentially uniformly. The proofs…
We study compact locally homogeneous plane waves. Such a manifold is a quotient of a homogeneous plane wave $X$ by a discrete subgroup of its isometry group. This quotient is called standard if the discrete subgroup is contained in a…
We present a new semiclassical technique which relies on replacing complicated classical manifold structure with simpler manifolds, which are then evaluated by the usual semiclassical rules. Under circumstances where the original manifold…

We consider nonselfadjoint perturbations of semiclassical harmonic oscillators. Under appropriate dynamical assumptions, we establish some spectral estimates such as upper bounds on the resolvent near the real axis when no geometric control…
In this paper we consider a semiclassical version of the wave equations with singular H\"{o}lder time-dependent propagation speeds on the lattice $\hbar\mathbb{Z}^{n}$. We allow the propagation speed to vanish leading to the weakly…
In this note, we consider semiclassical scattering on a manifold which is Euclidean near infinity or asymptotically hyperbolic. We show that, if the cut-off resolvent satisfies polynomial estimates in a strip of size $O(h |\log…
For manifolds Euclidian at infinity and compact perturbations of the Laplacian, we show that under assumptions involving hyperbolicity of the classical flow on the trapped set and its period spectrum, there are strips below the real axis…
We study microlocal limits of plane waves on noncompact Riemannian manifolds (M,g) which are either Euclidean or asymptotically hyperbolic with curvature -1 near infinity. The plane waves E(z,\xi) are functions on M parametrized by the…
Resonance states in quantum chaotic scattering systems have a multifractal structure that depends on their decay rate. We show how classical dynamics describes this structure for all decay rates in the semiclassical limit. This result for…
This paper is concerned with the diffraction of an electromagnetic wave by a perfectly conducting half-plane in a homogeneous bi-isotropic medium (asymptotically). Similar analysis in a source-free field is done in Asghar,S. and Lakhtakia,…
The extended boundary condition method can be formulated to study plane-wave scattering by an ellipsoid composed of an orthorhombic dielectric-magnetic material whose relative permittivity dyadic is a scalar multiple of its relative…
Large-time asymptotic properties of solutions to a class of semilinear stochastic wave equations with damping in a bounded domain are considered. First an energy inequality and the exponential bound for a linear stochastic equation are…
We study the scattering of scalar waves propagating on the global monopole background. Since the scalar wave operator in this topological defect is not essentially self-adjoint, its solutions are not uniquely determined until a boundary…
