Investigation of electromagnetic wave diffraction from an inhomogeneous partially shielded solid

Diffraction of electromagnetic wave from a partially shielded inhomogeneous dielectric is considered. The original boundary value problem for Maxwell’s equations is shown to have at most one quasi-classical solution. The problem is reduced to a system of integro-differential equations on the solid and the screens. The matrix integro-differential operator is treated in Sobolev spaces and is shown to be a continuously invertible operator. As a result, convergence of the Galerkin method is proved in the chosen functional spaces.     

On the Fredholm property of the electric field equation in the vector diffraction problem for a partially screened solid

We consider a vector problem of diffraction of an electromagnetic wave on a partially screened anisotropic inhomogeneous dielectric body. The boundary conditions and the matching conditions are posed on the boundary of the inhomogeneity domain, and under passage through it, the medium parameters have jump changes. A boundary value problem for the system of Maxwell equations in unbounded space is studied in a semiclassical statement and is reduced to a system of integro-differential equations on the body domain and the screen surfaces. We show that the quadratic form of the problem operator is coercive and the operator itself is Fredholm with zero index.     

On the equivalence of the electromagnetic problem of diffraction by an inhomogeneous bounded dielectric body to a volume singular integro-differential equation

The paper is concerned with the smoothness of the solutions to the volume singular integrodifferential equations for the electric field to which the problem of electromagnetic-wave diffraction by a local inhomogeneous bounded dielectric body is reduced. The basic tool of the study is the method of pseudo-differential operators in Sobolev spaces. The theory of elliptic boundary problems and field-matching problems is also applied. It is proven that, for smooth data of the problem, the solution from the space of square-summable functions is continuous up to the boundaries and smooth inside and outside of the body. The results on the smoothness of the solutions to the volume singular integro-differential equation for the electric field make it possible to resolve the issues on the equivalence of the boundary value problem and the equation.     

On the unique existence of the classical solution to the problem of electromagnetic wave diffraction by an inhomogeneous lossless dielectric body

A vector problem of electromagnetic wave diffraction by an inhomogeneous volumetric body is considered in the classical formulation. The uniqueness theorem for the solution to the boundary value problem for the system of Maxwell’s equations is proven in the case when the permittivity is real and varies jumpwise on the boundary of the body. A vector integro-differential equation for the electric field is considered. It is shown that the operator of the equation is continuously invertible in the space of square-summable vector functions.     

Degenerate integro-differential operators in Banach spaces and their applications

In this paper we consider linear integro-differential equations in Banach spaces with Fredholm operators at the highest-order derivatives and convolution-type Volterra integral parts. We obtain sufficient conditions for the unique solvability (in the classical sense) of the Cauchy problem for the mentioned equations and illustrate the abstract results with pithy examples. The studies are carried out in classes of distributions in Banach spaces with the help of the theory of fundamental operator functions of degenerate integro-differential operators. We propose a universal technique for proving theorems on the form of fundamental operator functions.     

The Fredholm alternative for parabolic evolution equations with inhomogeneous boundary conditions

We study the Fredholm properties of parabolic evolution equations on R with inhomogeneous boundary values. These problems are transformed into evolution equations with inhomogeneities taking values in certain extrapolation spaces. Assuming that the underlying homogeneous problem is asymptotically hyperbolic, we show the Fredholm alternative for these equations. The results are applied to parabolic partial differential equations.     

Discreteness of the spectrum in the problem on normal waves in an open inhomogeneous waveguide

We consider the problem on normal waves in an inhomogeneous waveguide structure reduced to a boundary value problem for the longitudinal components of the electromagnetic field in Sobolev spaces. The inhomogeneity of the dielectric filling and the occurrence of the spectral parameter in the transmission conditions necessitate giving a special definition of what a solution of the problem is. To find the solution, we use the variational statement of the problem. The variational problem is reduced to the study of an operator function. We study the properties of the operator function needed for the analysis of its spectral properties. Theorems on the discreteness of the spectrum and on the distribution of the characteristic numbers of the operator function on the complex plane are proved.     

The Cauchy problem for a singularly perturbed integro-differential Fredholm equation

An initial problem is considered for an ordinary singularly perturbed integro-differential equation with a nonlinear integral Fredholm operator. The case when the reduced equation has a smooth solution is investigated, and the solution to the reduced equation with a corner point is analyzed. The asymptotics of the solution to the Cauchy problem is constructed by the method of boundary functions. The asymptotics is validated by the asymptotic method of differential inequalities developed for a new class of problems.     

The diffraction in a class of unbounded domains connected through a hole

In this paper, the unique solvability, Fredholm property, and the principle of limiting absorption are proved for a boundary value problem for the system of Maxwell's equations in a semi‐infinite rectangular cylinder coupled with a layer by an aperture of arbitrary shape. Conditions at infinity are taken in the form of the Sveshnikov–Werner partial radiation conditions. The method of solution employs Green's functions of the partial domains and reduction to vector pseudodifferential equations considered in appropriate vectorial Sobolev spaces. Singularities of Green's functions are separated both in the domain and on its boundary. The smoothness of solutions is established. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Linear and nonlinear abstract equations with parameters

This paper focuses on nonlocal boundary value problems for linear and nonlinear abstract elliptic equations in Banach spaces. Here equations and boundary conditions contain certain parameters. The uniform separability of the linear problem and the existence and uniqueness of maximal regular solution of nonlinear problem are obtained in L_p spaces. For linear case the discreteness of spectrum of corresponding parameter dependent differential operator is obtained. The behavior of solution when the parameter approaches zero and its smoothness with respect to the parameter is established. Moreover, we show the estimate for analytic semigroups in terms of interpolation spaces. This fact can be used to obtain maximal regularity properties for abstract boundary value problems.     

Asymptotic solutions of Fredholm integro-differential equations with rapidly varying kernels and irreversible limit operator

We consider a system of singularly perturbed integro-differential Fredholm equations with rapidly varying kernel in the case of irreversible operator of differential part. We develop an algorithm for constructing regularized asymptotic solutions. It is shown that in the presence of rapidly decreasing multiplier in the kernel the original problem is not on the spectrum (i.e, it is solvable for any right-hand side). We study the limit transition (with small parameter tending to zero), and solve the problem of initialization, i.e., the problem of extracting of the source data for which an exact solution to the system tends to the limit at all duration (including a zone of boundary layer).     

Method of integral equations in the scalar problem of diffraction on a system consisting of a “soft” and a “hard” screen and an inhomogeneous body

We consider the scalar problem on the diffraction of a plane wave on a system of two screens with boundary conditions of the first and the second kind and a solid inhomogeneous body in the semiclassical setting. The original boundary value problem for the Helmholtz equation is reduced to a system of singular integral equations over the body domain and the screen surfaces. We prove the equivalence of the integral and differential statements of the problem, the solvability of the system of integral equations in Sobolev spaces, and the smoothness of its solutions. To solve the integral equations approximately, we use the Bubnov-Galerkin method; we introduce basis functions on the body and the screens and prove the consistency and convergence of the numerical method.     

A Variational Approach for the Mixed Problem in the Elastostatics of Bodies with Dipolar Structure

In this study, we address the mixed initial boundary value problem in the elastostatics of dipolar bodies. Using the equilibrium equations, we build the operator of dipolar elasticity and prove that this operator is positively defined even in the general case of an elastic inhomogeneous and anisotropic dipolar solid. This helps us to prove the existence of a generalized solution for first boundary value problem and also the uniqueness of the solution. Moreover, relying on this property of the operator of dipolar elasticity to be positively defined, we can apply the known variational method proposed by Mikhlin.     

On a generalization of the Neumann problem for the Laplace equation

We investigate solvability of a fractional analogue of the Neumann problem for the Laplace equation. As a boundary operator we consider operators of fractional differentiation in the Hadamard sense. The problem is solved by reduction to an integral Fredholm equation. A theorem on existence and uniqueness of the problem solution is proved.

Boundary Equations in Problems of Diffraction of Electromagnetic Waves with Impedance Boundary Condition

The problem of nonstationary diffraction of electromagnetic waves with impedance boundary condition is studied. The solution of the problem is expressed in terms of retarded surface potentials of the first and second kinds. These representations lead to two systems of nonstationary boundary equations. The unique solvability of these systems in one-parameter scales of spaces of Sobolev type is proved.     

The Three-Dimensional Problem of Statics of the Elastic Mixture Theory with Displacements Given on the Boundary

The first three-dimensional boundary value problem is considered for the basic equations of statics of the elastic mixture theory in the finite and infinite domains bounded by the closed surfaces. It is proved that this problem splits into two problems whose investigation is reduced to the first boundary value problem for an elliptic equation which structurally coincides with an equation of statics of an isotropic elastic body. Using the potential method and the theory of Fredholm integral equations of second kind, the existence and uniqueness of the solution of the first boundary value problem is proved for the split equation.     

Nonlinear Singular Integro-Differential Equations with an Arbitrary Parameter

The maximally monotone operator method in real weighted Lebesgue spaces is used to study three different classes of nonlinear singular integro-differential equations with an arbitrary positive parameter. Under sufficiently clear constraints on the nonlinearity, we prove existence and uniqueness theorems for the solution covering in particular, the linear case as well. In contrast to the previous papers in which other classes of nonlinear singular integral and integro-differential equations were studied, our study is based on the inversion of the superposition operator generating the nonlinearities of the equations under consideration and the establishment of the coercitivity of the inverse operator, as well as a generalization of the well-known Schleiff inequality.
