We consider the $L^2$-boundedness of the solution itself of the Cauchy problem for wave equations with time-dependent wave speeds. We treat it in the one-dimensional Euclidean space. To study these, we adopt a simple multiplier method by…
We consider a Stark Hamiltonian on a two-dimensional bounded domain with Dirichlet boundary conditions. In the strong electric field limit we derive, under certain local convexity conditions, a three-term asymptotic expansion of the…
We study the inverse problem for determining the time-dependent matrix potential appearing in the wave equation. We prove the unique determination of potential from the knowledge of solution measured on a part of the boundary.
We consider a coupled system of Maxwell's equations and the equations of elasticity, which is commonly used to model piezo-electric material behavior. The boundary influence is encoded as a separate dynamics on the boundary data spaces…
We establish new Carleman estimates for the wave equation, which we then apply to derive novel observability inequalities for a general class of linear wave equations. The main features of these inequalities are that (a) they apply to a…
We show that, given any static spacetime whose spatial slices are asymptotically Euclidean (or, more generally, asymptotically conic) manifolds modeled on the large end of the Schwarzschild exterior, there exist stationary solutions to the…
This article focuses on long-time existence for quasilinear wave equations with small initial data in exterior domains. The nonlinearity is permitted to fully depend on the solution at the quadratic level, rather than just the first and…

We study the local existence of strong solutions for the cubic nonlinear wave equation with data in $H^s(M)$, $s<1/2$, where $M$ is a three dimensional compact riemannian manifold. This problem is supercritical and can be shown to be…
After exactly half a century of Anderson localization, the subject is more alive than ever. Direct observation of Anderson localization of electrons was always hampered by interactions and finite temperatures. Yet, many theoretical…
Using direct numerical simulations (DNSs), the interaction between linear waves and turbulence under the compressible magnetohydrodynamic (CMHD) approach was studied. A set of DNSs in three dimensions for a spatial resolution of $128^3$ and…
We examine the so-called micropolar equations in three dimensional cylindrical domains under Navier boundary conditions. These equations form a generalization of the ordinary incompressible Navier-Stokes model, taking the structure of the…
