We prove that if two non-trapping obstacles in $\mathbb{R}^n$ satisfy some rather weak non-degeneracy conditions and the scattering rays in their exteriors have (almost) the same travelling times or (almost) the same scattering length…
This paper is concerned with analysis of electromagnetic wave scattering by an obstacle which is embedded in a two-layered lossy medium separated by an unbounded rough surface. Given a dipole point source, the direct problem is to determine…
We prove exterior energy lower bounds for (nonradial) solutions to the energy-critical nonlinear wave equation in space dimensions $3 \le d \le 5$, with compactly supported initial data. In particular, it is shown that nontrivial global…
In this article we shall go over recent work in proving dispersive and Strichartz estimates for the Dirichlet-wave equation. We shall discuss applications to existence questions outside of obstacles and discuss open problems.
This article introduces a novel "bootstrap domain-of-dependence" concept, according to which, for all time following a given illumination period of arbitrary duration, the wave field scattered by an obstacle is encoded in the history of…

In this paper, we establish a conformal scattering theory for defocusing semilinear wave equations on Schwarzschild spacetime. We combine the energy and pointwise decay results for solutions obtained in \cite{Yang} with a Sobolev embedding…
It is proved that the scattering amplitude $A(\beta, \alpha_0, k_0)$, known for all $\beta\in S^2$, where $S^2$ is the unit sphere in $\mathbb{R}^3$, and fixed $\alpha_0\in S^2$ and $k_0>0$, determines uniquely the surface $S$ of the…
We prove large-data scattering and existence of wave operators in the energy space for the systems of $N$ defocusing fourth-order Schr\"odinger equations with mass-supercritical and energy-subcritical power-type nonlinearity. In addition,…
We consider the NLS with variable coefficients in dimension $n\ge3$ \begin{equation*} i \partial_t u - Lu +f(u)=0, \qquad Lv=\nabla^{b}\cdot(a(x)\nabla^{b}v)-c(x)v, \qquad \nabla^{b}=\nabla+ib(x), \end{equation*} on $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ or more…
We show global existence backwards from scattering data at infinity for semilinear wave equations satisfying the null condition or the weak null condition. Semilinear terms satisfying the weak null condition appear in many equations in…
In this brief note, we consider a wave equation that has both trapping and a complex potential. For this problem, we prove a uniform bound on the energy and a Morawetz (or integrated local energy decay) estimate. The equation is a model…
In this paper, we consider the Schr\"odinger equation with a mass-supercritical focusing nonlinearity, in the exterior of a smooth, compact, convex obstacle of $\R^{d}$ with Dirichlet boundary conditions. We prove that solutions with…

The goal for this paper is twofold. Our first main objective is to develop Bahouri-Gerard type profile decompositions for waves on hyperbolic space. Recently, such profile decompositions have proved to be a versatile tool in the study of…
We study the small data scattering problem in critical spaces for the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation (NLS) on waveguide manifolds. Our work is primarily inspired by the recent paper of Kwak and Kwon \cite{KwakKwon} that established the…
For the Schrodinger equation at fixed energy with a potential supported in a bounded domain we give formulas and equations for finding scattering data from the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map with nonzero background potential. For the case of zero…
This paper focuses on the well-posedness (or lack thereof) of three-dimensional time-harmonic wave propagation problems modeled by the Helmholtz equation. It is well-known that if the problem is set in bounded domain with Dirichlet boundary…
We prove decay estimates for solutions to non-isotropic linear systems of wave equations. The defining feature of these estimates is that they depend only on the commutation properties of the system with the scaling vector field. As…
