The space-time curvature carried by electromagnetic fields is discovered and a new unification of geometry and electromagnetism is found. Curvature is invariant under charge reversal symmetry. Electromagnetic field equations are examined…
It is proved that a convex polyhedral scatterer of impedance type can be uniquely determined by the electric far-field pattern of a non-vanishing incident field. The incoming wave is allowed to bean electromagnetic plane wave, a vector…
A decomposition of the angular momentum of the classical electromagnetic field into orbital and spin components that is manifestly gauge invariant and general has been obtained. This is done by decomposing the electric field into its…
Wave fields obeying the 2D Helmholtz equation on branched surfaces (Sommerfeld surfaces) are studied. Such surfaces appear naturally as a result of applying the reflection method to diffraction problems with straight scatterers bearing…
Traditionally, the diffraction of a scalar wave satisfying Helmholtz equation through an aperture on an otherwise black screen can be solved approximately by Kirchhoff's integral over the aperture. Rubinowicz, on the other hand, was able to…
The displacement field for three dimensional dynamic elasticity problems in the frequency domain can be decomposed into a sum of a longitudinal and a transversal part known as a Helmholtz decomposition. The Cartesian components of both the…
Filter convergence of vector lattice-valued measures is considered, in order to deduce theorems of convergence for their decompositions. First the $\sigma$-additive case is studied, without particular assumptions on the filter; later the…
We consider wave propagation problems in which there is a preferred direction of propagation. To account for propagation in preferred directions, the wave equation is decomposed into a set of coupled equations for waves that propagate in…
Decomposing the field scattered by an object into vector spherical harmonics (VSH) is the prime task when discussing its optical properties on more analytical grounds. Thus far, it was frequently required in the decomposition that the…
In this article, discrete variants of several results from vector calculus are studied for classical finite difference summation by parts operators in two and three space dimensions. It is shown that existence theorems for scalar/vector…
Time-harmonic electromagnetic waves in vacuum are described by the Helmholtz equation $\Delta u+\omega ^{2}u=0 $ for $ (x,y,z) \in \mathbb{R}^3 $. For the evolution of such waves along the $z$-axis a Schr\"odinger equation can be derived…
An extension of the Helmholtz theorem is proved, which states that two retarded vector fields ${\bf F}_1$ and ${\bf F}_2$ satisfying appropriate initial and boundary conditions are uniquely determined by specifying their divergences…
In this paper we define the radiation field for the wave equation on the Schwarzschild black hole spacetime. In this context it has two components: the rescaled restriction of the time derivative of a solution to null infinity and to the…
We propose a new radiation condition for an infinite inhomogeneous two-dimensional medium which is periodic in the vertical direction and remains invariant in the horizontal direction. The classical Rayleigh-expansion radiation condition…
The correlation between particle and wave descriptions of electron-matter interactions is analyzed by measuring the delocalization of an evanescent field using electron microscopy. Its spatial extension coincides with the energy-dependent,…
We investigate elliptic fractional equations in the whole space, involving zero order perturbations of the fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta)^s$, $0<s<1$. Our main objective is to determine appropriate radiation conditions at infinity that…
A large body of work over several decades indicates that, in the presence of gravitational interactions, there is loss of localization resolution within a fundamental ( $\sim$ Planck) length scale $\ell$. We develop a general formalism…
The radiation formation length for relativistic particles, $l_c \sim \gamma^2 \lambda$ ($\gamma$ is the Lorentz factor, $\lambda$ is the emitted wavelength), is much lager than the inter-particle distances in many astrophysical…
We derive and establish a solution concept for the linear mountain wave problem in two dimensions. After linearizing the governing equations and a change of variables, the problem can be stated as a Dirichlet boundary value problem for a…
We prove that the space of vector fields on the boundary of a bounded domain in three dimensions is decomposed into three subspaces orthogonal to each other: elements of the first one extend to the inside of the domain as gradient fields of…
