Asymptotic pseudounitary stacking operators
نویسنده
چکیده
Stacking operators are widely used in seismic imaging and seismic data processing. Examples include Kirchhoff datuming, migration, offset continuation, DMO, and velocity transform. Two primary approaches exist for inverting such operators. The first approach is iterative least-squares optimization, which involves the construction of the adjoint operator. The second approach is asymptotic inversion, where an approximate inverse operator is constructed in the highfrequency asymptotics. Adjoint and asymptotic inverse operators share the same kinematic properties, but their amplitudes (weighting functions) are defined differently. This paper describes a theory for reconciling the two approaches. I introduce a pair of the asymptotic pseudo-unitary operators, which possess both the property of being adjoint and the property of being asymptotically inverse. The weighting function of the asymptotic pseudo-unitary stacking operators is shown to be completely defined by the derivatives of the operator kinematics. I exemplify the general theory by considering several particular examples of stacking operators. Simple numerical experiments demonstrate a noticeable gain in efficiency when the asymptotic pseudo-unitary operators are applied for preconditioning iterative least-squares optimization.

Asymptotic distribution of eigenvalues of the elliptic operator system
Since the theory of spectral properties of non-self-accession differential operators on Sobolev spaces is an important field in mathematics, therefore, different techniques are used to study them. In this paper, two types of non-self-accession differential operators on Sobolev spaces are considered and their spectral properties are investigated with two different and new techniques.
متن کاملDeterminantal formulae for the Casimir operators of inhomogeneous Lie algebras
Contractions of Lie algebras are combined with the classical matrix method of Gel’fand to obtain matrix formulae for the Casimir operators of inhomogeneous Lie algebras. The method is presented for the inhomogeneous pseudounitary Lie algebras Iu(p, q). This procedure is extended to contractions of Iu(p, q) isomorphic to an extension by a derivation of the inhomogeneous special pseudo-unitary Li...

Pseudounitary symmetry and the Gaussian pseudounitary ensemble of random matrices.
Employing the currently discussed notion of pseudo-Hermiticity, we define a pseudounitary group. Further, we develop a random matrix theory that is invariant under such a group and call this ensemble of pseudo-Hermitian random matrices the pseudounitary ensemble. We obtain exact results for the nearest-neighbor level-spacing distribution for (2 x 2) PT-invariant Hamiltonian matrices that have f...
متن کاملPseudo-Unitary Operators and Pseudo-Unitary Quantum Dynamics
We consider pseudo-unitary quantum systems and discuss various properties of pseudounitary operators. In particular we prove a characterization theorem for block-diagonalizable pseudo-unitary operators with finite-dimensional diagonal blocks. Furthermore, we show that every pseudo-unitary matrix is the exponential of i = √ −1 times a pseudo-Hermitian matrix, and determine the structure of the L...
