The solution of Helmholtz and Maxwell equations by integral formulations (kernel in exp(i kr)/r) leads to large dense linear systems. Using direct solvers requires large computational costs in O(N(3)). Using iterative solvers, the computational cost is reduced to large matrix-vector products. The fast multipole method provides a fast numerical way to compute convolution integrals. Its applicati...

A new finite plane wave series expansion for spherical wave functions of the first kind is presented in this paper. The formulation converts the spherical wave function described in the spherical coordinate system into a series of plane wave functions represented in the Cartesian coordinate system. The series expansion will be very useful in modal analysis of three dimensional guided wave struc...

In this paper, a Y-shaped power splitter based on a two dimensional photonic crystal (PhC) for TE modes is designed and optimized. A triangular lattice of air holes is used for Y-shaped power divider. For analyzing these structures, plane wave expansion (PWE) and finite difference time domain (FDTD) methods are used. The simulation results show that more than 98% of the input power is transmitt...

Imagine a MIMO communication system that fully exploits the propagation characteristics offered by an electromagnetic channel and ultimately approaches limits imposed wireless communications. This is concept of Holographic Accurate tractable modeling critical to understanding its full potential. Classical stochastic models used communications theorists are derived under far-field assumption, i....

We demonstrate the existence of surface waves in two-dimensional photonic crystal slab edges. In finite-sized air-terminated photonic crystal boundaries, the slab-edge mode turns into a lasing mode under pulsed optical pumping conditions. Analyses of the modal behaviors of the slab-edge modes by means of calculations based on the plane wave expansion method and the finite-difference time-domain...

The investigation of teams and teamwork in cooperative (e.g., group brainstorming and team decisionmaking) and mixed-motive (e.g., negotiation) contexts has been carried out through a variety of lenses anddisciplines.One lens that has not beenused to rigorously theorize about andempirically investigate teams is that of ideologies. In this review, we juxtapose the study of a particular status-re...
