Inward and outward integral equations and the KKR method for photons
نویسنده
چکیده
In the case of electromagnetic waves it is necessary to distinguish between inward and outward on-shell integral equations. Both kinds of equation are derived. A correct implementation of the photonic KKR method then requires the inward equations and it follows directly from them. A derivation of the KKR method from a variational principle is also outlined. Rather surprisingly, the variational KKR method cannot be entirely written in terms of surface integrals unless permeabilities are piecewise constant. Both kinds of photonic KKR method use the standard structure constants of the electronic KKR method and hence allow for a direct numerical application. As a by-product, matching rules are obtained for derivatives of fields on different sides of the discontinuity of permeabilities. (To appear in J. Phys. : Cond.

Inward and Outward Integral Equations and the Kkr Method
Our main goals have been to calculate photonic bands on various periodic dielectric lattices, to clarify some controversy regarding existence of a photonic band gap for fcc lattice of dielectric spheres [1], and finally treat impurities in a photonic crystal [2]. Motivated by the search for a photonic band gap [3] we have tried to adapt one of the standard methods of electron band theory namely...

We desire the heat flux through the boundary S of the subregion V , which is the normal component of the heat flux vector φ, φ n̂, where n̂ is the outward unit · normal at the boundary S. Hats on vectors denote a unit vector, n̂ = 1 (length 1). | | If the heat flux vector φ is directed inward, then φ n̂ < 0 and the outward flow of · heat is negative. To compute the total heat energy flowing across ...

Extended Abstract Introduction The formation of built spaces in composition to open spaces is one of the important subjects in designing architectural spaces. Different factors were important in formation of open spaces in traditional architecture. The kind of function of a building was one of these factors, because the quality of designing courtyards and its elements were dependent to the ...

A Legendre wavelet method is presented for numerical solutions of stochastic Volterra-Fredholm integral equations. The main characteristic of the proposed method is that it reduces stochastic Volterra-Fredholm integral equations into a linear system of equations. Convergence and error analysis of the Legendre wavelets basis are investigated. The efficiency and accuracy of the proposed method wa...
