For a non-relativistic particle, we consider the evolution of wave functions that consist of polynomial segments, usually joined smoothly together. These spline wave functions are compact (that is, they are initially zero outside a finite…
Many generalizations of continued fractions, where the reciprocal function has been replaced by a more general function, have been studied, and it is often asked whether such generalized expansions can have nice properties. For instance, we…
We investigate the meaning of the wave function by analyzing the mass and charge density distributions of a quantum system. According to protective measurement, a charged quantum system has mass and charge density distributing in space,…
Spiral waves are striking self-organized coherent structures that organize spatio-temporal dynamics in dissipative, spatially extended systems. In this paper, we provide a conceptual approach to various properties of spiral waves. Rather…
Long-distance transmission of energy by waves is a key mechanism for many natural processes. It becomes possible when the inhomogeneous medium is arranged in such a manner that it enables a specific type of waves to propagate with virtually…
The consideration of dynamics of relativistic beams/particles is based on variational approach to rational (in dynamical variables) approximation for equations of motions. It allows to control contribution from each scale of underlying…
High frequency limit for most of wave phenomena is known as quasiclassical limit or ray optics limit. Propagation of waves in this limit is described in terms of wave fronts and rays. Wave front is a surface of constant phase whose points…
We study eigenfrequencies and propagator expansions for damped wave equations on compact manifolds. Under the assumption of geometric control, the propagator is shown to admit an expansion in terms of finitely many eigenmodes near the real…
We derive a general expression for the expectation value of the phase acquired by a time dependent wave function in a multi component system, as excursions are made in its coordinate space. We then obtain the mean phase for the (linear…
One of the most important topics in geophysics is to study convection in a sea. Based on the algebraic characteristics of the equations of dynamic convection in a sea, we introduce various schemes with multiple parameter functions to solve…
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…
Like many other physical quantities, the optical force can be expanded using multipole expansion, which has been done in [Nat. Photon. 5, 531], up to electric octupole order. However, in that study, the existence of radiation multipoles…
Gamow's explanation of the exponential decay law uses complex "eigenvalues" and exponentially growing "eigenfunctions". This raises the question, how Gamow's description fits into the quantum mechanical description of nature, which is based…
The notion of a physical collapse of the wave function is embodied in dynamical collapse models. These involve a modification of the unitary evolution of the wave function such as to give a dynamical account of collapse. The resulting…
A problem of finding the linear theory satisfaction limits in propagation of the internal gravity waves is considered. It is evident that internal gravity waves excitation, propagation in actual practice is highly nonlinear phenomenon.…
We consider the statistics of the number of nodal domains aka nodal counts for eigenfunctions of separable wave equations in arbitrary dimension. We give an explicit expression for the limiting distribution of normalised nodal counts and…
In contrast to wave functions in nonrelativistic quantum mechanics interpreted as probability amplitudes, wave functions in relativistic quantum mechanics have generalized meanings such as charge-density amplitudes, energy-density…
Generalized eigenfunctions may be regarded as vectors of a basis in a particular direct integral of Hilbert spaces or as elements of the antidual space $\Phi^\times$ in a convenient Gelfand triplet…
The phases are the main factor that affects the outcome of various optical phenomena, such as quantum superposition, wave interference, and light-matter interaction. As a light wave becomes nonstatic, an additional phase, the so-called…
An algorithm for computing eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the angular spheroidal wave equation, based on a known but scarcely used method, is developed. By requiring the regularity of the wave function, represented by its series…
