One-dimensional optical waveguiding is revisited using the electromagnetic deduction of Fresnel formulas relating the incident, reflected, and transmitted waves on the abrupt interface between two different optical media. Throughout the…
In the framework of field approach with finite time interval the particle oscillations in a medium are considered. The absorption in a final states do not lead to dramatic suppression of ab-transitions. Also we touch on the problem of…
We study the nonlinear realization of supersymmetry in a dynamical/cosmological background in which derivative terms like kinetic terms are finite. Starting from linearly realized theories, we integrate out heavy modes without neglecting…
We develop the theory of pretty good quantum fractional revival in arbitrary sized subsets of a graph, including the theory for fractional cospectrality of subsets of arbitrary size. We use this theory to give conditions under which a…
Several quantities related to the Zernike circle polynomials admit an expression as an infinite integral involving the product of two or three Bessel functions. In this paper these integrals are identified and evaluated explicitly for the…
The classical sampling Nyquist-Shannon-Kotelnikov theorem states that a band-limited continuous time function can be uniquely recovered without error from a infinite two-sided sampling series taken with a sufficient frequency. This short…
We prove a function field analogue of Maynard's result about primes with restricted digits. That is, for certain ranges of parameters n and q, we prove an asymptotic formula for the number of irreducible polynomials of degree n over a…
When supersymmetry is spontaneously broken it will be generically non-linearly realized. A method to describe the non-linear realization of supersymmetry is with constrained superfields. We discuss the basic features of this description and…
We consider the limit of a linear kinetic equation, with reflection-transmission-absorption at an interface, with a degenerate scattering kernel. The equation arise from a microscopic chain of oscillators in contact with a heat bath. In the…
This paper proposes a novel, rigorous and simple Fourier-transformation approach to study resonances in a perfectly conducting slab with finite number of subwavelength slits of width $h\ll 1$. Since regions outside the slits are variable…
Diffraction limit is manifested in the loss of high spatial frequency information that results from decay of evanescent waves. As a result, conventional far-field optics yields no information about an object's subwavelength features. Here…
We consider the inverse scattering problem of retrieving the structural parameters of a stratified medium consisting of dispersive materials, given knowledge of the complex reflection coefficient in a finite frequency range. It is shown…
We provide a description of the far-field encountered in the diffraction problem resulting from the interaction of a monochromatic plane-wave and a right-angled no-contrast penetrable wedge. To achieve this, we employ a two-complex-variable…
The problem of recovering a diffusion coefficient $a$ in a second-order elliptic partial differential equation from a corresponding solution $u$ for a given right-hand side $f$ is considered, with particular focus on the case where $f$ is…
The parametric equations of the surfaces on which highly resonant quasi-periodic motions develop (lower-dimensional tori) cannot be analytically continued, in general, in the perturbation parameter, i.e. they are not analytic functions of…
We consider subtle correlations in the scattering of fluid by randomly placed obstacles, which have been suggested to lead to a diverging dispersion coefficient at long times for high Peclet numbers, in contrast to finite mean-field…
This note treats several problems for the fractional perimeter or $s$-perimeter on the sphere. The spherical fractional isoperimetric inequality is established. It turns out that the equality cases are exactly the spherical caps.…
Perfect lensing using negative refractive index materials and radiationless electromagnetic interference both provide extreme subwavelength focusing by "amplifying" evanescent wave components that are usually lost. This paper provides a…
We study the problem of reconstructing a multivariate trigonometric polynomial having only few non-zero coefficients from few random samples. Inspired by recent work of Candes, Romberg and Tao we propose to recover the polynomial by Basis…
This paper provides a theoretical analysis of diffraction-limited superresolution, demonstrating that arbitrarily close point sources can be resolved in ideal situations. Precisely, we assume that the incoming signal is a linear combination…
