Exact analytic expressions for electromagnetic propagation and optical nonlinear generation in finite one-dimensional periodic multilayers.

2004

Translation Matrix Formalism has been used to find an exact analytic solution for linear light propagation in a finite one-dimensional (1D) periodic stratified structure. This modal approach allows to derive a closed formula for the electric field in every point of the structure, by simply imposing a convenient form for the boundary conditions. We show how to apply this result to Second Harmonic Generation (SHG) in the undepleted pump regime.

Navier-Stokes equations on an exterior circular domain: construction of the solution and the zero viscosity limit

1997

Abstract In this Note, we consider the limit of Navier-Stokes equations on a circular domain. By an explicit construction of the solution, it is proved that, when viscosity goes to zero, solution converges to the Euler solution outside the boundary layer and to the Prandtl solution inside the boundary layer.

MUTUAL INDUCTANCE FOR AN EXPLICITLY FINITE NUMBER OF TURNS

2011

Non coaxial mutual inductance calculations, based on a Bessel function formulation, are presented for coils modelled by an explicitly flnite number of circular turns. The mutual inductance of two such turns can be expressed as an integral of a product of three Bessel functions and an exponential factor, and it is shown that the exponential factors can be analytically summed as a simple geometric progression, or other related sums. This allows the mutual inductance of two thin solenoids to be expressed as an integral of a single analytical expression. Sample numerical results are given for some representative cases and the approach to the limit where the turns are considered to be smeared ou…

ON SOLVABILITY OF THE DAMPED FUČÍK TYPE PROBLEM WITH INTEGRAL CONDITION

2014

The solvability results are established for the boundary value problem with a damping term , x(0) = 0, where x + = max{x, 0}, x - = max{-x, 0}, h is a bounded nonlinearity, µ, λ real parameters. The existence results are based of the knowledge of the Fučík type spectrum for the problem with h ≡ 0

Rectifiable sets and approximate tangent planes

1995

Optimum free energy in the reference functional approach for the integral equations theory.

2011

We investigate the question of determining the bulk properties of liquids, required as input for practical applications of the density functional theory of inhomogeneous systems, using density functional theory itself. By considering the reference functional approach in the test particle limit, we derive an expression of the bulk free energy that is consistent with the closure of the Ornstein–Zernike equations in which the bridge functions are obtained from the reference system bridge functional. By examining the connection between the free energy functional and the formally exact bulk free energy, we obtain an improved expression of the corresponding non-local term in the standard referenc…

Curves with no tritangent planes in space and their convex envelopes

1990

M. H. Freedman ([3]) proved that for a generic subset of closed curves in ~ 3 with nonvanishing curvature and torsion the number of t r i tangent planes is even and finite. He also guessed, for each even number s _> 0, the existence of an open subset A8 of closed curves with nonvanishing curvature and torsion such tha t each curve in A8 has exact ly s t r i t angent planes. A question tha t can be asked in this context is: Which curves with nonvanishing curvature and torsion have no t r i tangent planes? An example of such a curve is given by the (1,2)-curve on the torus with rat io a, 3 < a < 5 (see [2]). For a generi c curve, we give a pa r t i a l answer to this question here by finding …

A star product on the spherical harmonics

We explicitly define a star product on the spherical harmonics using the Moyal star product on ℝ6, and a polarization equation allowing its restriction on S2.

Spherical Harmonics Expansion of Fundamental Solutions and Their Derivatives for Homogeneous Elliptic Operators

2017

In this work, a unified scheme for computing the fundamental solutions of a three-dimensional homogeneous elliptic partial differential operator is presented. The scheme is based on the Rayleigh expansion and on the Fourier representation of a homogeneous function. The scheme has the advantage of expressing the fundamental solutions and their derivatives up to the desired order without any term-by-term differentiation. Moreover, the coefficients of the series need to be computed only once, thus making the presented scheme attractive for numerical implementation. The scheme is employed to compute the fundamental solution of isotropic elasticity showing that the spherical harmonics expansion…

Nonlocal Third Order Boundary Value Problems with Solutions that Change Sign

2014

We investigate the existence and the number of solutions for a third order boundary value problem with nonlocal boundary conditions in connection with the oscillatory behavior of solutions. The combination of the shooting method and scaling method is used in the proofs of our main results. Examples are included to illustrate the results.
