We present the foundations of a new solution technique for the characteristic initial value problem (IVP) of colliding plane gravitational waves. It has extensive similarities to the approach of Alekseev and Griffiths in 2001, but we use an…

In this account we investigate an asymptotically flat space-time geometry. In particular, we focus on a pure gravity model with cylindrical symmetry where no matter fields are included. The Einstein-Rosen metric is introduced and the…

We consider a fixed angle inverse scattering problem in the presence of a known Riemannian metric. First, assuming a no caustics condition, we study the direct problem by utilizing the progressing wave expansion. Under a symmetry assumption…

An Inverse Scattering Method is developed for the Camassa-Holm equation. As an illustration of our approach the solutions corresponding to the reflectionless potentials are explicitly constructed in terms of the scattering data. The main…

The description of gravitational waves as explosion and implosion waves as predicted by Weber and Wheeler [{\it Rev. Mod. Phys. {\bf 29} 509 (1957)}] in Einstein and Rosen spacetime, has recently been confirmed following observations by the…

The inverse scattering transform for the focusing nonlinear Schrodinger equation is presented for a general class of initial conditions whose asymptotic behavior at infinity consists of counterpropagating waves. The formulation takes into…

The increasing interest in compact astrophysical objects (neutron stars, binaries, galactic black holes) has stimulated the search for rigorous methods, which allow a systematic general relativistic description of such objects. This paper…

This paper addresses an inverse cavity scattering problem associated with the biharmonic wave equation in two dimensions. The objective is to determine the domain or shape of the cavity. The Green's representations are demonstrated for the…

We solve the Cauchy problem of the Ward model in light-cone coordinates using the inverse spectral (scattering) method. In particular we show that the solution can be constructed by solving a $2\times 2$ local matrix Riemann-Hilbert problem…

The initial value problem for the general coupled Hirota system with nonzero boundary conditions at infinity is solved by reporting a rigorous theory of the inverse scattering transform. With the help of a suitable uniformization variable,…

We consider the massive Thirring model in the laboratory coordinates and explain how the inverse scattering transform can be developed with the Riemann-Hilbert approach. The key ingredient of our method is to transform the corresponding…

We show that an inverse scattering problem for a semilinear wave equation can be solved on a manifold having an asymptotically Minkowskian infinity, that is, scattering functionals determine the topology, differentiable structure, and the…

In the context of the Cauchy problem for the Korteweg-de Vries equation we extend the inverse scattering transform to initial data that behave at plus infinity like a sum of Wigner-von Neumann type potentials with small coupling constants.…

A one-dimensional generalized nonlinear Schroedinger equation is considered, and the corresponding inverse scattering problem is analyzed when the potential is compactly supported and depends on the wave function. The unique recovery of the…

We consider the inverse random potential scattering problem for the two- and three-dimensional biharmonic wave equation in lossy media. The potential is assumed to be a microlocally isotropic Gaussian rough field. The main contributions of…

We analyse an inverse problem for water waves posed by Richard Feynman in the BBC documentary Fun to Imagine. The problem can be modelled as an inverse Cauchy problem for gravity-capillary waves on a bounded domain. We do a detailed…

In terms of gravitational solitons, we study gravitational non-linear effects of gravitational solitary waves such as Faraday rotation. Applying the Pomeransky's procedure for inverse scattering method, which has been recently used for…

The Newton-Sabatier method for solving inverse scattering problem with fixed-energy phase shifts for a sperically symmetric potential is discussed. It is shown that this method is fundamentally wrong: in general it cannot be carried…

This paper analyzes inverse scattering for the one-dimensional Helmholtz equation in the case where the wave speed is piecewise constant. Scattering data recorded for an arbitrarily small interval of frequencies is shown to determine the…

We consider the problem of reconstructing the seabed topography from observations of surface gravity waves. We formulate the problem as a classical inverse scattering problem using the mild-slope equation, and analyze the topographic…
