Syntactic case and DP (in)visibility

Invisibility and interpretation

Invisibility is often thought to occur because of the low-level limitations of the visual system. For example, it is often assumed that backward masking renders a target invisible because the visual system is simply too slow to resolve the target and the mask separately. Here, we propose an alternative explanation in which invisibility is a goal rather than a limitation and occurs naturally whe...

Ageing and Invisibility

Invisibility and Inverse Problems

We describe recent theoretical and experimental progress on making objects invisible. Ideas for devices that would have once seemed fanciful may now be at least approximately realized physically, using a new class of artificially structured materials, metamaterials. The equations that govern a variety of wave phenomena, including electrostatics, electromagnetism, acoustics and quantum mechanics...

Cloaking and Invisibility: A Review

Invisibility has been a tantalizing concept for mankind over several centuries. With recent developments in metamaterial science and nanotechnology, the possibility of cloaking objects to incoming electromagnetic radiation has been escaping the realm of science fiction to become a technological reality. In this article, we review the state-of-the-art in the science of invisibility for electroma...
