An adaptive C~0IPG method for the Helmholtz transmission eigenvalue problem

The interior penalty methods using C~0 Lagrange elements(C~0 IPG) developed in the recent decade for the fourth order problems are an interesting topic at present. In this paper, we discuss the adaptive proporty of C~0 IPG method for the Helmholtz transmission eigenvalue problem. We give the a posteriori error indicators for primal and dual eigenfunctions, and prove their reliability and efficiency. We also give the a posteriori error indicator for eigenvalues and design a C~0 IPG adaptive algorithm. Numerical experiments show that this algorithm is efficient and can get the optimal convergence rate.

Wavelet moment method for the Cauchy problem for the Helmholtz equation

The paper is concerned with the problem of reconstruction of acoustic or electromagnetic field from inexact data given on an open part of the boundary of a given domain. A regularization concept is presented for the moment problem that is equivalent to a Cauchy problem for the Helmholtz equation. A method of regularization by projection with application of the Meyer wavelet subspaces is introduced and analyzed. The derived formula, describing the projection level in terms of the error bound of the inexact Cauchy data, allows us to prove the convergence and stability of the method.     

On a quasi-reversibility regularization method for a Cauchy problem of the Helmholtz equation

In this paper, we consider the Cauchy problem for the Helmholtz equation in a rectangle, where the Cauchy data is given for y=0 and boundary data are for x=0 and x=π. The solution is sought in the interval 0<y≤1. A quasi-reversibility method is applied to formulate regularized solutions which are stably convergent to the exact one with explicit error estimates.     

Guaranteed lower eigenvalue bounds for the biharmonic equation

The computation of lower eigenvalue bounds for the biharmonic operator in the buckling of plates is vital for the safety assessment in structural mechanics and highly on demand for the separation of eigenvalues for the plate’s vibrations. This paper shows that the eigenvalue provided by the nonconforming Morley finite element analysis, which is perhaps a lower eigenvalue bound for the biharmonic eigenvalue in the asymptotic sense, is not always a lower bound. A fully-explicit error analysis of the Morley interpolation operator with all the multiplicative constants enables a computable guaranteed lower eigenvalue bound. This paper provides numerical computations of those lower eigenvalue bounds and studies applications for the vibration and the stability of a biharmonic plate with different lower-order terms.     

A boundary integral equation method for the transmission eigenvalue problem

We propose a new integral equation formulation to characterize and compute transmission eigenvalues for constant refractive index that play an important role in inverse scattering problems for penetrable media. As opposed to the recently developed approach by Cossonnière and Haddar [1,2] which relies on a two by two system of boundary integral equations our analysis is based on only one integral equation in terms of Dirichlet-to-Neumann or Robin-to-Dirichlet operators which results in a noticeable reduction of computational costs. We establish Fredholm properties of the integral operators and their analytic dependence on the wave number. Further we employ the numerical algorithm for analytic non-linear eigenvalue problems that was recently proposed by Beyn [3] for the numerical computation of transmission eigenvalues via this new integral equation.     

Modified regularization method for the Cauchy problem of the Helmholtz equation

In this paper, the Cauchy problem for the Helmholtz equation is investigated. It is known that such problem is severely ill-posed. We propose a modified regularization method to solve it based on the solution given by the method of separation of variables. Convergence estimates are presented under two different a-priori bounded assumptions for the exact solution. Finally, numerical examples are given to show the effectiveness of the proposed numerical method.     

A regularization method for solving the Cauchy problem for the Helmholtz equation

In this paper, we investigate a Cauchy problem associated with Helmholtz-type equation in an infinite “strip”. This problem is well known to be severely ill-posed. The optimal error bound for the problem with only nonhomogeneous Neumann data is deduced, which is independent of the selected regularization methods. A framework of a modified Tikhonov regularization in conjunction with the Morozov’s discrepancy principle is proposed, it may be useful to the other linear ill-posed problems and helpful for the other regularization methods. Some sharp error estimates between the exact solutions and their regularization approximation are given. Numerical tests are also provided to show that the modified Tikhonov method works well.     

A fractional Tikhonov method for solving a Cauchy problem of Helmholtz equation

In this paper, we study a fractional Tikhonov regularization method (FTRM) for solving a Cauchy problem of Helmholtz equation in the frequency domain. On the one hand, the FTRM retains the advantage of classical Tikhonov method. On the other hand, our method can prevent the effect of oversmoothing of classical Tikhonov method and conveniently control the amount of damping. The convergence error estimates between the exact solution and its regularization approximation are constructed. Several interesting numerical examples are provided, which validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

Pertubation bounds for the definite generalized eigenvalue problem

Let A and B be Hermitian matrices, and let c(A, B) = inf{|x^H(A + iB)x|:6 = 1}. The eigenvalue problem Ax = λBx is called definite if c(A, B)>0. It is shown that a definite problem has a complete system of eigenvectors and that its eigenvalues are real. Under pertubations of A and B, the eigenvalues behave like the eigenvalues of a Hermitian matrix in the sense that there is a 1-1 pairing of the eigenvalues with the perturbed eigenvalues and a uniform bound for their differences (in this case in the chordal metric). Pertubation bounds are also developed for eigenvectors and eigenspaces.

Justification of the collocation method for the integral equation for a mixed boundary value problem for the Helmholtz equation

The surface integral equation for a spatial mixed boundary value problem for the Helmholtz equation is considered. At a set of chosen points, the equation is replaced with a system of algebraic equations, and the existence and uniqueness of the solution of this system is established. The convergence of the solutions of this system to the exact solution of the integral equation is proven, and the convergence rate of the method is determined.

Modified Tikhonov regularization method for the Cauchy problem of the Helmholtz equation

In this paper, the Cauchy problem for the Helmholtz equation is investigated. By Green’s formulation, the problem can be transformed into a moment problem. Then we propose a modified Tikhonov regularization algorithm for obtaining an approximate solution to the Neumann data on the unspecified boundary. Error estimation and convergence analysis have been given. Finally, we present numerical results for several examples and show the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

On the existence of infinitely many nonperturbative solutions in a transmission eigenvalue problem for nonlinear Helmholtz equation with polynomial nonlinearity

The paper focuses on a transmission eigenvalue problem for nonlinear Helmholtz equation with polynomial nonlinearity which describes the propagation of transverse electric waves along a dielectric layer filled with nonlinear medium. It is proved that even if the nonlinearity coefficients are small, the nonlinear problem has infinitely many nonperturbative solutions, whereas the corresponding linear problem always has a finite number of solutions. This results in the theoretical existence of a novel type of nonlinear guided waves that exist only in nonlinear guided systems. Asymptotic distribution of the eigenvalues is found and a comparison theorem is proved; periodicity of the eigenfunctions is proved, the exact formula for the period is found, and the zeros of the eigenfunctions are determined. The results found essentially extend the theory evolved earlier (particular cases for Kerr, cubic-quintic, septic nonlinearities, etc. are easily extracted from the general results found here). Numerical results are also presented.     

The exterior Robin problem for the Helmholtz equation

A new method is given for solving the exterior Robin problem for the Helmholtz equation. The problem is reformulated as a new integral equation which is continuous as the field point approaches the boundary. It is shown that its solution can be represented as a convergent Neumann series for convex surfaces, for small values of the wave number. Examples are included which illustrate the method.
