We consider the motion of a rigid body due to the pressure of a surrounded two-dimensional irrotational perfect incompressible fluid, the whole system being confined in a bounded domain with an impermeable condition on a part of the…
In this note, we show that a natural optimal control problem for the $\infty$-obstacle problem admits an optimal control which is also an optimal state. Moreover, we show the convergence of the minimal value of an optimal control problem…
We consider boundary measurements for the wave equation on a bounded domain $M \subset \R^2$ or on a compact Riemannian surface, and introduce a method to locate a discontinuity in the wave speed. Assuming that the wave speed consist of an…
Absorption-free (also known as ``interaction-free'') measurement aims to detect the presence of an opaque object using a test particle without that particle being absorbed by the object. Here we consider semi-transparent objects which have…
When propagating through periodically structured media, i. e. photonic crystals, optical waves will be modulated with the periodicity. As a result, the dispersion of waves will no longer behave as in a free space, and so called frequency…
Control barrier functions are a popular method of ensuring system safety, and these functions can be used to enforce invariance of a set under the dynamics of a system. A control barrier function must have certain properties, and one must…
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…
This ArXiv paper is a supplement to [7] and contains proofs of preliminary claims omitted in [7] for lack of space. The paper deals with exploring a necessary condition for solvability of the Reach Control Problem (RCP) using affine…
Given two points in the plane, and a set of "obstacles" given as curves through the plane with assigned weights, we consider the point-separation problem, which asks for the minimum-weight subset of the obstacles separating the two points.…
The particle approach to one-dimensional potential scattering is applied to non relativistic tunnelling between two, three and four identical barriers. We demonstrate as expected that the infinite sum of particle contributions yield the…
A method is given for calculation of a distribution of small particles, embedded in a medium, so that the resulting medium would have a desired radiation pattern for the plane wave scattering by this medium.
Quantum interference is shown to deliver a means of regulating the diffraction pattern of a thermal atomic beam interacting with two standing wave electric fields. Parameters have been identified to enhance the diffraction probability of…
Suppose that a plane wave is incident onto an impenetrable grating profile of Dirichlet or Impedance type or a penetrable grating. The grating interface is assumed to be given by a Lipschitz function in two dimensions. We derive stability…
The scalar scattering of the plane wave by a strictly convex obstacle with impedance boundary conditions is considered. The uniform boundedness of the Total Cross Section for all values of frequencies is proved. The high frequency limit of…
Interference is one of the most fundamental features which characterizes quantum systems. Here we provide an exhaustive analysis of the interfere dynamics associated with wave-packet superpositions from both the standard quantum-mechanical…
Given near or far field wave measurements generated by some unknown time- and space-dependent acoustic source, we seek to rapidly determine a domain in space-time, as small as possible, that contains the support of a source radiating these…
The asymmetrical path interference test of light is put forward in the paper. In the test, two different results would arise under the same experimental conditions if light is regarded as wave or particle. Therefore, the test can help us to…
The aim of this chapter is to make a review of the recent results using the Enclosure Method on inverse obstacle problems governed by the wave equation and the Maxwell system in time domain. We also describe some of unsolved problems…
In recent years, controllability problems for dispersive systems have been extensively studied. This work is dedicated to proving a new type of controllability for a dispersive fifth order equation that models water waves, what we will now…
A numerical solution to the problem of wave scattering by many small particles is studied under the assumption k<<1, d>>a, where a is the size of the particles and d is the distance between the neighboring particles. Impedance boundary…
