    Notes: The paper gives a proof, valid for a large class of bounded domains, of the following compactness statements: Let G be a bounded domain, β be a tensor-valued function on G satisfying certain restrictions, and let {n} be a sequence of vector-valued functions on G where the L2-norms of {n}, {curl n}, and {div(β n)} are bounded, and where all n either satisfy x n = 0 or (β Fn) = 0 at the boundary ∂G of G ( = normal to ∂G): then {n} has a L2-convergent subsequence. The first boundary condition is satisfied by electric fields, the second one by magnetic fields at a perfectly conducting boundary ∂G if β is interpreted as electric dielectricity ∊ or as magnetic permeability μ, respectively.These compactness statements are essential for the application of abstract scattering theory to the boundary value problem for Maxwell's equations.

    Notes: Methods using the theory of distributions and Hilbert space operators have been very powerful in the past to achieve uniqueness and existence results for Maxwell's equations. In this paper conditions are given when such abstract “Hilbert space”-solutions represent differentiable “regular” functions which satisfy Maxwell's equations, boundary conditions, and transmission conditions in the classical sense.

    Notes: We study initial and boundary value problems for the wave equation and the heat equation with a time-independent right-hand term f in two space dimensions in the exterior of a closed curve C. In the case of Neumann's boundary condition ∂u/∂n = 0 on C, the solutions increase with a logarithmic rate as t → ∞ if ∫ fdx ≠ 0. In contrast to this, the solutions of the corresponding Dirichlet problems converge to the solution of the related static problem as t → ∞. In the case of the wave equation, these results have already been obtained by L: A. Muravei under the additional assumption that the curvature of C is positive, by using high frequency estimates for the reduced wave equation Δ U + ϰ2 U = 0. The analysis presented here is based on different methods, which can be applied to arbitrary smooth curves.

    Notes: Employing a special contact transformation devised by S. Lie, which takes spheres into lines, we interpret the Feynman diagrams of photon electron scattering in terms of vector systems. This gives a nice kinematic model of Compton scattering. We further compute in detail the transition probabilities of the Compton scattering process by making use of the calculus of chains of complexes from classical invariant theory rather than applying the usual Dirac-matrix technique. In the final paragraph of this paper an application of our calculations to the treatment of myon decay is indicated.

    Notes: Recent investigations on aperiodic waves, which are generated by time-harmonic forces in waveguides, indicate a close relationship between resonances and certain time-harmonic solutions of homogeneous boundary value problems for the wave equation (“standing waves”). This paper is motivated by the observation that, in all known cases, standing waves are connected with resonances if and only if they are subject to suitable asymptotic restrictions as |x| → ∞. These asymptotic properties are used to introduce a class of “admissible” standing waves. We prove that admissible standing waves do not exist in a certain class of local perturbations Ω of the n-dimensional domain Ω0 bounded by the hyperplanes xn = 0 and xn = π. This extends a result of M. Faulhaber on the absence of eigenvalues. As we shall show in a subsequent paper, absence of admissible standing waves implies absence of resonances.

    Notes: In part 1Math. meth. in the Appl. Sci, 10, 125-144 (1988). we studied the principle of limiting absorption for local perturbations Ω of the n-dimensional domain Ω0 = ∝n-1 × (0, π). In this second part we extend our investigations to the time-dependent theory and show that absence of admissible standing waves implies the validity of the principle of limiting amplitude for every frequency ω≥0 if n ≠ 3 and for ω ≠ 2, 3,… if n = 3, respectively. In particular, the principle of limiting amplitude holds for every ω≥0 in the case n ≠ 3 and for every ω ≠ 2, 3,… in the case n = 3 if Ω≠Ω0 and ν·x′ ≤0 on ∂Ω, where x′ = (x1,…, xn-1, 0) and ν is the normal unit vector on ∂Ω pointing into the complement of Ω This result stands in remarkable contrast to the fact that both principles are violated in the case of the unperturbed domain Ω0 at the frequencies ω = 1, 2,… if n≤3. The question of the asymptotic behaviour of the solution as t→∞ for n = 3 and ω = 2, 3,… will be discussed in two subsequent papers.

    Notes: It has been observed13 that the propagation of acoustic waves in the region Ω0= ∝2 × (0, 1), which are generated by a time-harmonic force density with compact support, leads to logarithmic resonances at the frequencies ω = 1, 2,… As we have shown9 in the case of Dirichlet's boundary condition U = 0 on ∂Ω, the resonance at the smallest frequency ω = 1 is unstable and can be removed by a suitable small perturbation of the region. This paper contains similar instability results for all resonance frequencies ω = 1, 2,… under more restrictive assumptions on the perturbations Ω of Ω0. By using integral equation methods, we prove that absence of admissible standing waves in the sense of Reference 7 implies the validity of the principle of limit amplitude for every frequency ω ≥ 0 in the region Ω =Ω0 -B, where B is a smooth bounded domain with B̄⊂Ω0. In particular, it follows from Reference 7 in the case of Dirichlet's boundary condition that the principle of limit amplitude holds for every frequency ω ≥ 0 if n·x′ ≤ 0 on ∂ B, where x′ = (x1, x2, 0) and n is the normal unit vector pointing into the interior B of ∂ B. In the case of Neumann's boundary condition, the logarithmic resonance at ω = 0 is stable under the perturbations considered in this paper. The asymptotic behaviour of the solution for arbitary local perturbations of Ω0 will be discussed in a subsequent paper.

    Notes: We study the propagation of linear waves, generated by a compactly supported time-harmonic force distribution, in a semi-infinite string under the assumption that the material properties depend p-period-ically on the space variable outside a sufficiently large interval [0, a]. The spectrum of the self-adjoint extension A of the spatial part of the differential operator consists of a finite or countable number of bands and a (possibly empty) discrete set of eigenvalues located in the gaps of the continuous spectrum. We show that resonances of order t or t½, respectively, occur if either ω2 is an eigenvalue of A or (i) ω2 is a boundary point of the continuous spectrum of A and (ii) the corresponding time-independent homogeneous problem has a non-trivial solution which is p-periodic or p-semiperiodic for x 〉 a (‘standing wave’).

    Notes: We consider acoustic waves in domains with boundaries, coinciding with two parallel planes outside a sufficiently large sphere. Several results on spectral properties of the Laplace operator in such domains are derived and used to prove uniqueness and existence of a solution of the Dirichlet boundary value problem for the reduced wave equation under additional restrictions. In particular, a class of domains is described for which no eigenvalues are present.

    Notes: We consider the Dirichlet problem for the reduced wave equation ΔUx + x2Ux = 0 in a two-dimensional exterior domain with boundary C, where C consists of a finite number of smooth closed curves C1,…,Cm. The question of interest is the behavior of Ux as ϰ → 0. We show that U converges to the solution of the corresponding exterior Dirichlet problem of potential theory if the boundary data converge to a limit uniformly on C. This generalizes a well-known result of R. C. MacCamy for the case m = 1.
