The model problem of a plane angle for a second-order elliptic system subject to Dirichlet, mixed, and Neumann boundary conditions is analyzed. For each boundary condition, the existence of solutions of the form $r^\lambda v$ is reduced to…

We generalize and test the recent "ab initio" self-consistent (AISC) time-independent semiclassical laser theory. This self-consistent formalism generates all the stationary lasing properties in the multimode regime (frequencies,…

We study boundary determination for an inverse problem associated to the time-harmonic Maxwell equations and another associated to the isotropic elasticity system. We identify the electromagnetic parameters and the Lam\'e moduli for these…
In this paper we study the behavior of Hamilton operators and their spectra which depend on infinitely many coupling parameters or, more generally, parameters taking values in some Banach space. One of the physical models which motivate…
We study the (characteristic) Cauchy problem for the Maxwell-Bloch equations of light-matter interaction via asymptotics, under assumptions that prevent the generation of solitons. Our analysis clarifies some features of the sense in which…
We introduce a new system of surface integral equations for Maxwell's transmission problem in three dimensions. This system has two remarkable features, both of which we prove. First, it is well-posed at all frequencies. Second, the…
In this work we study linear Maxwell equations with time- and space-dependent matrix-valued permittivity and permeability on domains with a perfectly conducting boundary. This leads to an initial boundary value problem for a first order…

Electromagnetic waves arise in many area of physics. Solutions are difficult to find in the general case. In this paper, we numerically integrate Maxwell equations in a 3D spherical polar coordinate system. Straightforward finite difference…
We start with considering rank one self-adjoint perturbations $A_\alpha = A+\alpha(\,\cdot\,,\varphi)\varphi$ with cyclic vector $\varphi\in \mathcal{H}$ on a separable Hilbert space $\mathcal H$. The spectral representation of the…
We review our recent work leading to steady-state solutions of the semiclassical (Maxwell-Bloch) equations of a laser. These are coupled non-linear partial differential equations in space and time which have previously been solved either by…
In a recent feature article in this journal, co-authored by Gert van der Heijden, I described the static-dynamic analogy and its role in understanding the localized post-buckling of shell-like structures, looking exclusively at integrable…
We investigate Maxwell-scalar models on radially symmetric spacetimes in which the gauge and scalar fields are coupled via the electric permittivity. We find the conditions that allow for the presence of minimum energy configurations. In…
Advanced electromagnetic potentials are indigenous to the classical Maxwell theory. Generally however they are deemed undesirable and are forcibly excluded, destroying the theory's inherent time-symmetry. We investigate the reason for this,…
