A metasurface is a surface, tipically a plane, on which a function called phase discontinuity is chosen so that the metasurface produces a desired reflection or refraction job. We derive the equations that the phase discontinuity function…

We consider the inverse refractor and the inverse reflector problem. The task is to design a free-form lens or a free-form mirror that, when illuminated by a point light source, produces a given illumination pattern on a target. Both…

A natural and important question in multi-marginal optimal transport is whether the \emph{Monge ansatz} is justified; does there exist a solution of Monge, or deterministic, form? We address this question for the quadratic cost when each…
