Zeros of the Bessel and spherical Bessel functions and their applications for uniqueness in inverse acoustic obstacle scattering
نویسندگان
چکیده
Some novel interlacing properties of the zeros for the Bessel and spherical Bessel functions are first presented and then applied to prove an interesting uniqueness result in inverse acoustic obstacle scattering. It is shown that in the resonance region, the shape of a sound-soft/sound-hard ball in R3 or a soundsoft/sound-hard disc in R2 is uniquely determined by a single far-field datum measured at some fixed spot corresponding to a single incident plane wave.

Spectral Asymptotics for Perturbed Spherical Schrödinger Operators and Applications to Quantum Scattering
We find the high energy asymptotics for the singular Weyl–Titchmarsh m-functions and the associated spectral measures of perturbed spherical Schrödinger operators (also known as Bessel operators). We apply this result to establish an improved local Borg–Marchenko theorem for Bessel operators as well as uniqueness theorems for the radial quantum scattering problem with nontrivial angular momentum.
متن کاملConvexity Properties of Special Functions
Convexity properties are often useful in characterizing and nding bounds for special function and their zeros, as well as in questions concerning the existence and uniqueness of zeros in certain intervals. In this survey paper, we describe some work related to the gamma function, the q-gamma function, Bessel and cylinder functions and the Hermite function.

Using a Bessel generalized translation, we obtain an analog of Titchmarsh's theorem for the Bessel transform for functions satisfying the Lipschitz condition in the space $mathrm{L}_{p,alpha}(mathbb{R}_{+})$, where $alpha>-frac{1}{2}$ and $1
متن کاملNon Spherical Microphone Array Structures for 3d Beamforming and Spherical Harmonic Analysis
Decomposition of a soundfield into spherical harmonics is a fundamental problem in acoustic signal processing. This paper shows how to design non-spherical microphone array structures in 3D space to decompose a soundfield into spherical harmonic components. We use the mode limiting property of the Bessel functions and zeros of the associated Legendre functions together with orthoganality of the...

An evaluation of the derivative of spherical Bessel functions of order n + 1 2 at its zeros is obtained. Consequently, an explicit quadrature formula for entire functions of exponential type is given.
