Imaging through scattering media is a useful and yet demanding task since it involves solving for an inverse mapping from speckle images to object images. It becomes even more challenging when the scattering medium undergoes dynamic…

The presence of a scattering medium in the imaging path between an object and an observer is known to severely limit the visual acuity of the imaging system. We present an approach to circumvent the deleterious effects of scattering, by…

The scattering problem can be implemented in a square-integrable basis via the so-called $J$-matrix method. While methods to compute the phase shift in the $J$-matrix approach are known, we introduce a novel formula in square-integrable…

Optical wave packets that are localized in space and time, but nevertheless overcome diffraction and travel rigidly in free space, are a long sought-after field structure with applications ranging from microscopy and remote sensing, to…

We introduce a novel linear transport equation that models the evolution of a one-particle distribution subject to free transport and two distinct scattering mechanisms: one affecting the particle's speed and the other its direction. These…

Wavefront shaping allows focusing light through or inside strongly scattering media, but the background intensity also increases due to long-range correlations, reducing the target's contrast. By manipulating non-local intensity…

We study the interfaces' time evolution in one-dimensional bistable extended dynamical systems with discrete time. The dynamics is governed by the competition between a local piece-wise affine bistable mapping and any couplings given by the…
