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.…
Weakly nonlinear plane waves are considered in hyperelastic crystals. Evolution equations are derived at a quadratically nonlinear level for the amplitudes of quasi-longitudinal and quasi-transverse waves propagating in arbitrary…
We analyze the propagation properties of the numerical versions of one and two-dimensional wave equations, semi-discretized in space by finite difference schemes. We focus on high-frequency solutions whose propagation can be described, both…
We study propagation of phase space singularities for a Schr\"odinger equation with a Hamiltonian that is the Weyl quantization of a quadratic form with non-negative real part. Phase space singularities are measured by the lack of…
A one-way wave equation is an evolution equation in one of the space directions that describes (approximately) a wave field. The exact wave field is approximated in a high frequency, microlocal sense. Here we derive the pseudodifferential…
We prove microlocal estimates with normally hyperbolic trapping. We use a new type of symbol class which is constructed by blowing up the intersection of the unstable manifold and the fiber infinity. For scalar wave equations on Kerr(-de…
The theory of elliptic equations involving singular nonlinearities is well studied topic but the interaction of singular type nonlinearity with nonlocal nonlinearity in elliptic problems has not been investigated so far. In this article, we…
It is proved that an inhomogeneous medium whose boundary contains a weakly singular point of arbitrary order scatters every incoming wave. Similarly, a compactly supported source term with weakly singular points on the boundary always…
In this paper, we investigate semilinear elliptic equations with general exponential-type nonlinearities in two dimensions. For such nonlinearities, we establish two main results. The first is the construction of a singular solution.…
We give a precise microlocal description of the singular profile that forms in the long-time propagation of internal waves in an effectively two-dimensional aquarium. We allow domains with corners, such as polygons appearing in the…
We consider Scr\"odinger equations with real-valued smooth Hamiltonians, and non-smooth bounded pseudo-differential potentials, whose symbols may be not even differentiable. The well-posedness of the Cauchy problem is proved in the frame of…
The behavior of sufficiently regular solutions to semilinear hyperbolic equations has attracted a great deal of attention in the past decades, concerning local/global existence, finite time blow-up, critical exponents, and propagation of…
In this paper, we investigate the problem of electromagnetic wave propagation in hyperbolic nonlinear media. To address this problem, we consider the scalar hyperbolic nonlinear Schr\"odinger system and its coupled version, namely…
The paper contains a simplified and improved version of the results obtained by the authors earlier. Wave propagation is discussed in a network of branched thin wave guides when the thickness vanishes and the wave guides shrink to a one…
The spectral problem of thin elastic shells in membrane approximation does not satisfy the classical properties of compactness and so there exists an essential spectrum. In the first part, we propose to determinate this spectrum and the…
We consider extremal polynomials with respect to a Sobolev-type $p$-norm, with $1<p<\infty$ and measures supported on compact subsets of the real line. For a wide class of such extremal polynomials with respect to mutually singular measures…
We describe one-dimensional stationary scattering of a two-component wave field by a non-Hermitian matrix potential which features odd-$PT$ symmetry, i.e., symmetry with $(PT)^2=-1$. The scattering is characterized by a $4\times 4$ transfer…
