We introduce "stochastic cloaking," where a region of space is concealed from an ensemble of diffusing particles whose individual trajectories are governed by a stochastic (Langevin) equation. Our simulations reveal how different…
This paper is concerned with the invisibility cloaking in electromagnetic wave scattering from a new perspective. We are especially interested in achieving the invisibility cloaking by completely regular and isotropic mediums. Our study is…
The work is motivated by the Faraday cage effect. We consider the Helmholtz equation over a 3D-domain containing a thin heterogeneous interface of thickness $\delta \ll 1$. The layer has a $\delta-$periodic structure in the in-plane…

In elasticity, the design of a cloaking for an inclusion or a void to leave a vibrational field unperturbed by its presence, so to achieve its invisibility, is a thoroughly analyzed, but still unchallenged, mechanical problem. The 'cloaking…
Active Flux is a third order accurate numerical method which evolves cell averages and point values at cell interfaces independently. It naturally uses a continuous reconstruction, but is stable when applied to hyperbolic problems. In this…
The evolution of a two-phase Hele-Shaw problem, a Muskat problem, under assumption of a negligible surface tension is considered. We use the Schwarz function approach and allow the sinks and sources to be line distributions with disjoint…

The goal of this paper is to show that evanescent plane waves are much better at numerically approximating Helmholtz solutions than classical propagative plane waves. By generalizing the Jacobi$\unicode{x2013}$Anger identity to…
In 1,2 or 3 dimensions a scalar wave excited by a non-negative source in a viscoelastic medium with a non-negative relaxation spectrum or a Newtonian response or both combined inherits the sign of the source. The key assumption is a…
This article gives a ``fundamental solution'' based energy-norm harmonic interpolation approach for two half-space settings of interest: the upper-half $\mathbb{R}^n$ plane, where fundamental solutions satisfy Laplace's equation, and the…
This paper offers an extensive exploration of nonradiating sources for the two- and three-dimensional biharmonic wave equations. Various equivalent characterizations are derived to reveal the nature of a nonradiating source. Additionally,…
While it is known that any spherical fluid distribution may only source the spherically symmetric Schwarzschild space-time, the inverse is not true. Thus, in this manuscript, we find exact axially symmetric and static fluid (interior)…
