The boundary integral method for magnetic billiards
نویسنده
چکیده
We introduce a boundary integral method for two-dimensional quantum billiards subjected to a constant magnetic field. It allows to calculate spectra and wave functions, in particular at strong fields and semiclassical values of the magnetic length. The method is presented for interior and exterior problems with general boundary conditions. We explain why the magnetic analogues of the field-free single and double layer equations exhibit an infinity of spurious solutions and how these can be eliminated at the expense of dealing with (hyper-)singular operators. The high efficiency of the method is demonstrated by numerical calculations in the extreme semiclassical regime. PACS numbers: 03.65 Ge, 05.45 +b, 73.20 Dx Preprint, 7 December 1999

Generic spectral properties of right triangle billiards
This article presents a new method to calculate eigenvalues of right triangle billiards. Its efficiency is comparable to the boundary integral method and more recently developed variants. Its advantage is its simplicity and explicitness, which allow new insight into the statistical properties of the spectrum. It is shown how the genus of the invariant surface of the classical billiard flow, det...
متن کاملBoundary Integral Method for Stationary States of Two-dimensional Quantum Systems
The boundary integral method for calculating the stationary states of a quantum particle in nano-devices and quantum billiards is presented in detail at an elementary level. According to the method, wave functions inside the domain of the device or billiard are expressed in terms of line integrals of the wave function and its normal derivative along the domain’s boundary; the respective energy ...
متن کاملOn discretisation schemes for a boundary integral model of stochastic ray propagation
A boundary integral operator method for stochastic ray tracing in billiards was recently proposed in [1]. In particular, a phase-space boundary integral model for propagating uncertain ray or particle flows was described and shown to interpolate between deterministic and random models of the flow propagation. In this work we describe discretisation schemes for this class of boundary integral op...
متن کاملBoundary temperature reconstruction in an inverse heat conduction problem using boundary integral equation method
In this paper, we consider an inverse boundary value problem for two-dimensional heat equation in an annular domain. This problem consists of determining the temperature on the interior boundary curve from the Cauchy data (boundary temperature and heat flux) on the exterior boundary curve. To this end, the boundary integral equation method is used. Since the resulting system of linea...

In this paper, we present a computational method for solving boundary integral equations with loga-rithmic singular kernels which occur as reformulations of a boundary value problem for the Laplacian equation. Themethod is based on the use of the Galerkin method with CAS wavelets constructed on the unit interval as basis.This approach utilizes the non-uniform Gauss-Legendre quadrature rule for ...
