Computed Eigenmodes of Planar Regions

چکیده

Recently developed numerical methods make possible the highaccuracy computation of eigenmodes of the Laplacian for a variety of “drums” in two dimensions. A number of computed examples are presented together with a discussion of their implications concerning bound and continuum states, isospectrality, symmetry and degeneracy, eigenvalue avoidance, resonance, localization, eigenvalue optimization, perturbation of eigenvalues and eigenvectors, and other matters.

Reviving the Method of Particular Solutions

Fox, Henrici, and Moler made famous a “Method of Particular Solutions” for computing eigenvalues and eigenmodes of the Laplacian in planar regions such as polygons. We explain why their formulation of this method breaks down when applied to regions that are insufficiently simple and propose a modification that avoids these difficulties. The crucial changes are to introduce points in the interio...

Planelet Transform: A New Geometrical Wavelet for Compression of Kinect-like Depth Images

With the advent of cheap indoor RGB-D sensors, proper representation of piecewise planar depth images is crucial toward an effective compression method. Although there exist geometrical wavelets for optimal representation of piecewise constant and piecewise linear images (i.e. wedgelets and platelets), an adaptation to piecewise linear fractional functions which correspond to depth variation ov...

Accurate Analysis of Dielectric Backed Planar Conducting Layers of Arbitrarily Shaped in a Rectangular Waveguide

The characteristics of dielectric backed planar conducting layers of arbitrarily shaped in a rectangular waveguide are calculated by means of coupled integral equation technique (CIET) which accurately takes higher order mode interactions. Equivalent structures for the accurate analysis whole structure are introduced in which magnetic surface currents are identified as the unknowns at the apert...

Computation of eigenmodes on a compact hyperbolic space

Measurements of CMB anisotropy are ideal experiments for discovering the non-trivial global topology of the universe. To evaluate the CMB anisotropy in multiply-connected(MC) compact cosmological models, one needs to compute the eigenmodes of the Laplace-Beltrami operator. We numerically obtain the low-lying eigenmodes on a compact 3-hyperbolic space called m003(−2, 3) in the SnapPea using the ...

On the M-polynomial of planar chemical graphs

Let $G$ be a graph and let $m_{i,j}(G)$, $i,jge 1$, be the number of edges $uv$ of $G$ such that ${d_v(G), d_u(G)} = {i,j}$. The $M$-polynomial of $G$ is $M(G;x,y) = sum_{ile j} m_{i,j}(G)x^iy^j$. With $M(G;x,y)$ in hands, numerous degree-based topological indices of $G$ can be routinely computed. In this note a formula for the $M$-polynomial of planar (chemical) graphs which have only vertices...
