We implement an efficient method of computation of two dimensional Fourier-type integrals based on approximation of the integrand by Gaussian radial basis functions, which constitute a standard tool in approximation theory. As a result, we…
Based on diffraction theory and the propagation of the light, Fourier optics is a powerful tool allowing the estimation of a visible-range imaging system to transfer the spatial frequency components of an object. The analyses of the imaging…

We define spherical diffraction measures for a wide class of weighted point sets in commutative spaces, i.e. proper homogeneous spaces associated with Gelfand pairs. In the case of the hyperbolic plane we can interpret the spherical…
The present state of mathematical diffraction theory for systems with continuous spectral components is reviewed and extended. We begin with a discussion of various characteristic examples with singular or absolutely continuous diffraction,…
The paper studies the relationship between diffraction and dynamics for uniformly discrete ergodic point processes in real spaces. This relationship takes the form of an isometric embedding of two L^2 spaces. Diffraction (or equivalently…
Coherent diffraction imaging (CDI) of single molecules at atomic resolution is a major goal for the x-ray free electron lasers (XFELs). However, during an imaging pulse, the fast laser-induced ionization may strongly affect the recorded…
The scaling behaviour of the diffraction intensity near the origin is investigated for (partially) ordered systems, with an emphasis on illustrative, rigorous results. This is an established method to detect and quantify the fluctuation…

We apply the Hilbert transform to the physics of internal waves in two-dimensional fluids. Using this demodulation technique, we can discriminate internal waves propagating in different directions: this is very helpful in answering several…
We consider a linearly polarized electromagnetic wave incident on an opaque screen with square aperture of edge a. An application of Faraday's law to a loop parallel to the screen, on the side away from the source, shows that the wave must…

We consider topological dynamical systems over $\ZZ$ and, more generally, locally compact, $\sigma$-compact abelian groups. We relate spectral theory and diffraction theory. We first use a a recently developed general framework of…
We find a formula that relates the Fourier transform of a radial function on $\mathbf{R}^n$ with the Fourier transform of the same function defined on $\mathbf{R}^{n+2}$. This formula enables one to explicitly calculate the Fourier…
The theory of self-reciprocal functions is applied to the study Mordell type integrals. We find two particular eigenfunctions of the double cosine Fourier transform and then use them to evaluate certain one- and two-dimensional Mordell type…
We investigate the problem of estimating a smooth invertible transformation f when observing independent samples X_1, ..., X_n ~ P \circ f, where P is a known measure. We focus on the two dimensional case where P and f are defined on R^2.…
Mathematical diffraction theory has been developed since about 1995. Hof's initial approach relied on tempered distributions in euclidean space. Nowadays often the Fourier theory by Argabright and Gil de Lamadrid is used, which applies to…
We present a simple method for calculation of diffraction effects in a beam passing an aperture. It follows the well-known approach of Miyamoto and Wolf, but is simpler and does not lead to singularities. It is thus shown that in the…
Measuring transport coefficients at the microscale remains challenging, often relying on indirect methods that require modeling and calibration. This Letter derives universal asymptotic forms for the autocorrelation and relative uncertainty…
Analysis of signal fluctuations of a locally fixed probe, caused by molecules diffusing under the probe, can be used to determine diffusion coefficients. Theoretical treatments so far have been limited to point-like particles or to…
