Generalized Debye Sources Based EFIE Solver on Subdivision Surfaces

The electric field integral equation is a well known workhorse for obtaining fields scattered by a perfect electric conducting (PEC) object. As a result, the nuances and challenges of solving this equation have been examined for a while. Two recent papers motivate the effort presented in this paper. Unlike traditional work that uses equivalent currents defined on surfaces, recent research proposes a technique that results in well conditioned systems by employing generalized Debye sources (GDS) as unknowns. In a complementary effort, some of us developed a method that exploits the same representation for both the geometry (subdivision surface representations) and functions defined on the geometry, also known as isogeometric analysis (IGA). The challenge in generalizing GDS method to a discretized geometry is the complexity of the intermediate operators. However, thanks to our earlier work on subdivision surfaces, the additional smoothness of geometric representation permits discretizing these intermediate operations. In this paper, we employ both ideas to present a well conditioned GDS-EFIE. Here, the intermediate surface Laplacian is well discretized by using subdivision basis. Likewise, using subdivision basis to represent the sources, results in an efficient and accurate IGA framework. Numerous results are presented to demonstrate the efficacy of the approach

Integral Representations for the Class of Generalized Metaplectic Operators

This article gives explicit integral formulas for the so-called generalized metaplectic operators, i.e. Fourier integral operators (FIOs) of Schr\"odinger type, having a symplectic matrix as canonical transformation. These integrals are over specific linear subspaces of R^d, related to the d x d upper left-hand side submatrix of the underlying 2d x 2d symplectic matrix. The arguments use the integral representations for the classical metaplectic operators obtained by Morsche and Oonincx in a previous paper, algebraic properties of symplectic matrices and time-frequency tools. As an application, we give a specific integral representation for solutions to the Cauchy problem of Schr\"odinger equations with bounded perturbations for every instant time t in R, even in the so-called caustic points.Comment: 19 pages in Journal of Fourier Analysis and Applications, 201

Multiple (inverse) binomial sums of arbitrary weight and depth and the all-order epsilon-expansion of generalized hypergeometric functions with one half-integer value of parameter

We continue the study of the construction of analytical coefficients of the epsilon-expansion of hypergeometric functions and their connection with Feynman diagrams. In this paper, we show the following results: Theorem A: The multiple (inverse) binomial sums of arbitrary weight and depth (see Eq. (1.1)) are expressible in terms of Remiddi-Vermaseren functions. Theorem B: The epsilon expansion of a hypergeometric function with one half-integer value of parameter (see Eq. (1.2)) is expressible in terms of the harmonic polylogarithms of Remiddi and Vermaseren with coefficients that are ratios of polynomials. Some extra materials are available via the www at this http://theor.jinr.ru/~kalmykov/hypergeom/hyper.htmlComment: 24 pages, latex with amsmath and JHEP3.cls; v2: some typos corrected and a few references added; v3: few references added

The Dunkl kernel and intertwining operator for dihedral groups

Dunkl operators associated with finite reflection groups generate a commutative algebra of differential-difference operators. There exists a unique linear operator called intertwining operator which intertwines between this algebra and the algebra of standard differential operators. There also exists a generalization of the Fourier transform in this context called Dunkl transform. In this paper, we determine an integral expression for the Dunkl kernel, which is the integral kernel of the Dunkl transform, for all dihedral groups. We also determine an integral expression for the intertwining operator in the case of dihedral groups, based on observations valid for all reflection groups. As a special case, we recover the result of [Xu, Intertwining operators associated to dihedral groups. Constr. Approx. 2019]. Crucial in our approach is a systematic use of the link between both integral kernels and the simplex in a suitable high dimensional space.Comment: Revision version. A missing factor in formula (6) for the Bochner expression is added. Related formulas and some typos are corrected. All comments are welcom

Dual parametrization of generalized parton distributions in two equivalent representations

The dual parametrization and the Mellin-Barnes integral approach represent two frameworks for handling the double partial wave expansion of generalized parton distributions (GPDs) in the conformal partial waves and in the $t$-channel ${\rm SO}(3)$ partial waves. Within the dual parametrization framework, GPDs are represented as integral convolutions of forward-like functions whose Mellin moments generate the conformal moments of GPDs. The Mellin-Barnes integral approach is based on the analytic continuation of the GPD conformal moments to the complex values of the conformal spin. GPDs are then represented as the Mellin-Barnes-type integrals in the complex conformal spin plane. In this paper we explicitly show the equivalence of these two independently developed GPD representations. Furthermore, we clarify the notions of the $J=0$ fixed pole and the $D$-form factor. We also provide some insight into GPD modeling and map the phenomenologically successful Kumeri\v{c}ki-M\"uller GPD model to the dual parametrization framework by presenting the set of the corresponding forward-like functions. We also build up the reparametrization procedure allowing to recast the double distribution representation of GPDs in the Mellin-Barnes integral framework and present the explicit formula for mapping double distributions into the space of double partial wave amplitudes with complex conformal spin.Comment: 56 pages, 3 figure
