Summary of the results.In Ramm's second edition on refraction coefficient the author shares his recipe for creating materials with a desired refraction coefficient and solves the many-body wave scattering problem for many small impedance bodies. Technical problems are described which, when solved, make this theory practically applicable. It also provides physical and mathematical arguments for the possibility to produce such particles. Inverse scattering with non-over-determined scattering data is discussed.Research workers in physics, materials science, scattering theory, mathematical physics, numerical mathematics.Also available in print.Mode of access: World Wide Web.System requirements: Adobe Acrobat Reader, EPUB reader, or Kindle reader.Alexander G. Ramm, is Professor of Mathematics; is the author of 699 research papers, 17 research monographs, and edited three books. He was Fulbright Research Professor in Israel and in Ukraine, Mercator Professor, and won the Khwarizmi international award. He solved inverse scattering problems with non-over-determined data, the many-body wave scattering problem when the scatterers are small particles of an arbitrary shape, and used this theory to give a recipe for creating materials with a desired refraction coefficient. He proved symmetry results for PDE, including a solution to the Pompeiu problem and a proof of the Schiffer's conjecture.Title from PDF title page (viewed on August 4, 2020).
