The canonical problem of a perfect lens with linear bianisotropic materials is formulated. Its solution is shown to be directly connected with the concept of nihility, the electromagnetic nilpotent. Perfect lenses as well as nihility remain…
A very simple method is devised to derive a (strictly) isospectral extension of the Morse potential. Furthermore, point canonical transformations are used to transform the latter into quasi-exactly solvable extensions of the radial…
