We use Maxwell's equations in a sourceless, inhomogeneous medium with continuous permeability $\mu (\mathbf{r}) $ and permittivity $% \epsilon (\mathbf{r}) $ to study the wave propagation. The general form of the wave equation is derived…
Capillary condensation, which takes place in confined geometries, is the first-order vapor-to-liquid phase transition and is explained by the Kelvin equation, but the equations applicability for arbitrarily curved surface has been long…
The S-matrices for the scattering of two excitations in the XYZ model and in all of its SU(n)-type generalizations are obtained from the asymptotic behavior of Kerov's generalized Hall-Littlewood polynomials. These physical scattering…
A theory for multiple scattering of elastic waves is presented in a random medium bounded by two ideal free surfaces, whose horizontal size is infinite and whose transverse size is smaller than the mean free path of the waves. This geometry…
We present a three-dimensional model describing the propagation of elastic waves in a soil substrate supporting an array of cylindrical beams experiencing flexural and compressional resonances. The resulting surface waves are of two types.…
In this article, we investigate the wave equation in spiral geometry and study the modes of vibrations of a one-dimensional (1-D) string in spiral shape. Here we show that the problem of wave propagation along a spiral can be reduced to…
In the linear approximation, we study a one-dimensional problem of the reflectionless wave propagation on a surface of a shallow duct with the spatially varying water depth, duct width, and current. We show that both global and bounded…
Dynamic modulation of material properties in space and time enables powerful control over wave propagation, yet existing theories largely rely on idealized, nondispersive models. In realistic media, frequency dispersion can strongly reshape…
The interfacial internal waves are formed at the pycnocline or thermocline in the ocean and are influenced by the Coriolis force due to the Earth's rotation. A derivation of the model equations for the internal wave propagation taking into…
The properties of light rays around compact objects surrounded by a plasma are affected by both strong gravitational fields described by a general-relativistic spacetime and by a dispersive and refractive medium, characterized by the…
Radiation by the atoms of a resonant medium is a cooperative process in which the medium participates as a whole. In two previous papers \cite{PG00,GP00}, we treated this problem for the case of a medium having slab geometry, which, under…
The propagation of gravitational waves is explored in the cosmological context. It is explicitly demonstrated that the propagation of gravitational waves could be influenced by the medium. It is shown that in the thermal radiation, the…
Generalizations of the Hamilton-Jacobi and Schrodinger equations for multidimensional variational problems of field theory are deduced. These generalizations are so-called variational differential equations.
Detonation propagation in the limit of highly spatially discretized energy sources is investigated. The model of this problem begins with a medium consisting of a calorically perfect gas with a prescribed energy release per unit mass. The…
Wave propagation is a common occurrence in all of physics. A linear approximation provides a simpler way to describe various fields related to observable phenomena in laboratory physics as well as astronomy and cosmology, allowing us to…
Beginning with the quaternionic generalization of the quantum wave equation, we construct a simple model of relativistic quantum electrodynamics for massive dyons. A new quaternionic form of unified relativistic wave equation consisting of…
We make the first steps towards a generic theory for energy spreading and quantum dissipation. The Wall formula for the calculation of friction in nuclear physics and the Drude formula for the calculation of conductivity in mesoscopic…
Various spatial-gradient extensions of standard viscoelastic rheologies of the Kelvin-Voigt, Maxwell's, and Jeffreys' types are analyzed in linear one-dimensional situations as far as the propagation of waves and their dispersion and…
We present a short overview of the recent results in the theory of diffusion and wave equations with generalised derivative operators. We give generic examples of such generalised diffusion and wave equations, which include time-fractional,…
For the Newtonian N-body problem, we study the Jacobi-Maupertuis metric of the nonnegative energy levels. We show that the geodesic rays are expansive, that is to say, all the distances between the bodies must be divergent functions. More…
