Costabel IRMAR, Université de Rennes 1, France; [email protected] 1.1 Volume Integral Equations in Acoustic Scattering Volume integral equations have been used as a theoretical tool in scattering theory for a long time. A classical application is an existence proof for the scattering problem based on the theory of Fredholm integral equations. This approach is described for acoustic and electromagnetic scattering in the books by Colton and Kress [CoKr83, CoKr98] where volume integral equations ap- pear under the name “Lippmann-Schwinger equations”. In electromagnetic scattering by penetrable objects, the volume integral equation (VIE) method has also been used for numerical computations.

  • Chapter 8 Change of Variables, Parametrizations, Surface Integrals
    Chapter 8 Change of Variables, Parametrizations, Surface Integrals x0. The transformation formula In evaluating any integral, if the integral depends on an auxiliary function of the variables involved, it is often a good idea to change variables and try to simplify the integral. The formula which allows one to pass from the original integral to the new one is called the transformation formula (or change of variables formula). It should be noted that certain conditions need to be met before one can achieve this, and we begin by reviewing the one variable situation. Let D be an open interval, say (a; b); in R , and let ' : D! R be a 1-1 , C1 mapping (function) such that '0 6= 0 on D: Put D¤ = '(D): By the hypothesis on '; it's either increasing or decreasing everywhere on D: In the former case D¤ = ('(a);'(b)); and in the latter case, D¤ = ('(b);'(a)): Now suppose we have to evaluate the integral Zb I = f('(u))'0(u) du; a for a nice function f: Now put x = '(u); so that dx = '0(u) du: This change of variable allows us to express the integral as Z'(b) Z I = f(x) dx = sgn('0) f(x) dx; '(a) D¤ where sgn('0) denotes the sign of '0 on D: We then get the transformation formula Z Z f('(u))j'0(u)j du = f(x) dx D D¤ This generalizes to higher dimensions as follows: Theorem Let D be a bounded open set in Rn;' : D! Rn a C1, 1-1 mapping whose Jacobian determinant det(D') is everywhere non-vanishing on D; D¤ = '(D); and f an integrable function on D¤: Then we have the transformation formula Z Z Z Z ¢ ¢ ¢ f('(u))j det D'(u)j du1::: dun = ¢ ¢ ¢ f(x) dx1::: dxn: D D¤ 1 Of course, when n = 1; det D'(u) is simply '0(u); and we recover the old formula.

  • Mathematical Theorems
    Appendix A Mathematical Theorems The mathematical theorems needed in order to derive the governing model equations are defined in this appendix. A.1 Transport Theorem for a Single Phase Region The transport theorem is employed deriving the conservation equations in continuum mechanics. The mathematical statement is sometimes attributed to, or named in honor of, the German Mathematician Gottfried Wilhelm Leibnitz (1646–1716) and the British fluid dynamics engineer Osborne Reynolds (1842–1912) due to their work and con- tributions related to the theorem. Hence it follows that the transport theorem, or alternate forms of the theorem, may be named the Leibnitz theorem in mathematics and Reynolds transport theorem in mechanics. In a customary interpretation the Reynolds transport theorem provides the link between the system and control volume representations, while the Leibnitz’s theorem is a three dimensional version of the integral rule for differentiation of an integral. There are several notations used for the transport theorem and there are numerous forms and corollaries. A.1.1 Leibnitz’s Rule The Leibnitz’s integral rule gives a formula for differentiation of an integral whose limits are functions of the differential variable [7, 8, 22, 23, 45, 55, 79, 94, 99]. The formula is also known as differentiation under the integral sign. H. A. Jakobsen, Chemical Reactor Modeling, DOI: 10.1007/978-3-319-05092-8, 1361 © Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2014 1362 Appendix A: Mathematical Theorems b(t) b(t) d ∂f (t, x) db da f (t, x) dx = dx + f (t, b) − f (t, a) (A.1) dt ∂t dt dt a(t) a(t) The first term on the RHS gives the change in the integral because the function itself is changing with time, the second term accounts for the gain in area as the upper limit is moved in the positive axis direction, and the third term accounts for the loss in area as the lower limit is moved.

    An Introduction to Fluid Mechanics: Supplemental Web Appendices Faith A. Morrison Professor of Chemical Engineering Michigan Technological University November 5, 2013 2 c 2013 Faith A. Morrison, all rights reserved. Appendix C Supplemental Mathematics Appendix C.1 Multidimensional Derivatives In section 1.3.1.1 we reviewed the basics of the derivative of single-variable functions. The same concepts may be applied to multivariable functions, leading to the definition of the partial derivative. Consider the multivariable function f(x, y). An example of such a function would be elevations above sea level of a geographic region or the concentration of a chemical on a flat surface. To quantify how this function changes with position, we consider two nearby points, f(x, y) and f(x + ∆x, y + ∆y) (Figure C.1). We will also refer to these two points as f x,y (f evaluated at the point (x, y)) and f . | |x+∆x,y+∆y In a two-dimensional function, the “rate of change” is a more complex concept than in a one-dimensional function. For a one-dimensional function, the rate of change of the function f with respect to the variable x was identified with the change in f divided by the change in x, quantified in the derivative, df/dx (see Figure 1.26). For a two-dimensional function, when speaking of the rate of change, we must also specify the direction in which we are interested. For example, if the function we are considering is elevation and we are standing near the edge of a cliff, the rate of change of the elevation in the direction over the cliff is steep, while the rate of change of the elevation in the opposite direction is much more gradual.

Two Stokes theorems relating the exterior and interior derivatives with circulation and flux, respectively, are derived. As an application, it is shown how the exterior-calculus space–time formulation of the electromagnetic Maxwell equations and Lorentz force recovers the standard vector-calculus formulations, in both differential and integral forms. Keywords: exterior calculus; exterior algebra; electromagnetism; Maxwell equations; differential forms; tensor calculus 1. Introduction Vector calculus has, since its introduction by J. W. Gibbs [1] and Heaviside, been the tool of choice to represent many physical phenomena. In mechanics, hydrodynamics and electromagnetism, quantities such as forces, velocities and currents are modeled as vector fields in space, while flux, circulation, divergence or curl describe operations on the vector fields themselves. With relativity theory, it was observed that space and time are not independent but just coordinates in space–time [2] (pp. 111–120). Tensors like the Faraday tensor in electromagnetism were quickly adopted as a natural representation of fields in space–time [3] (pp. 135–144). In parallel, mathematicians such as Cartan generalized the fundamental theorems of vector calculus, i.e., Gauss, Green, and Stokes, by means of differential forms [4].

  • Lecture 33 Classical Integration Theorems in the Plane
    Lecture 33 Classical Integration Theorems in the Plane In this section, we present two very important results on integration over closed curves in the plane, namely, Green’s Theorem and the Divergence Theorem, as a prelude to their important counterparts in R3 involving surface integrals. Green’s Theorem in the Plane (Relevant section from Stewart, Calculus, Early Transcendentals, Sixth Edition: 16.4) 2 1 Let F(x,y) = F1(x,y) i + F2(x,y) j be a vector field in R . Let C be a simple closed (piecewise C ) curve in R2 that encloses a simply connected (i.e., “no holes”) region D ⊂ R. Also assume that the ∂F ∂F partial derivatives 2 and 1 exist at all points (x,y) ∈ D. Then, ∂x ∂y ∂F ∂F F · dr = 2 − 1 dA, (1) IC Z ZD ∂x ∂y where the line integration is performed over C in a counterclockwise direction, with D lying to the left of the path. Note: 1. The integral on the left is a line integral – the circulation of the vector field F over the closed curve C. 2. The integral on the right is a double integral over the region D enclosed by C. Special case: If ∂F ∂F 2 = 1 , (2) ∂x ∂y for all points (x,y) ∈ D, then the integrand in the double integral of Eq. (1) is zero, implying that the circulation integral F · dr is zero. IC We’ve seen this situation before: Recall that the above equality condition for the partial derivatives is the condition for F to be conservative.

    Draft version September 9, 2021 Typeset using LATEX modern style in AASTeX62 Efficient and precise transit light curves for rapidly-rotating, oblate stars Shashank Dholakia,1 Rodrigo Luger,2 and Shishir Dholakia1 1Department of Astronomy, University of California, Berkeley, CA 2Center for Computational Astrophysics, Flatiron Institute, New York, NY Submitted to ApJ ABSTRACT We derive solutions to transit light curves of exoplanets orbiting rapidly-rotating stars. These stars exhibit significant oblateness and gravity darkening, a phenomenon where the poles of the star have a higher temperature and luminosity than the equator. Light curves for exoplanets transiting these stars can exhibit deviations from those of slowly-rotating stars, even displaying significantly asymmetric transits depending on the system’s spin-orbit angle. As such, these phenomena can be used as a protractor to measure the spin-orbit alignment of the system. In this paper, we introduce a novel semi-analytic method for generating model light curves for gravity-darkened and oblate stars with transiting exoplanets. We implement the model within the code package starry and demonstrate several orders of magnitude improvement in speed and precision over existing methods. We test the model on a TESS light curve of WASP-33, whose host star displays rapid rotation (v sin i∗ = 86:4 km/s). We subtract the host’s δ-Scuti pulsations from the light curve, finding an asymmetric transit characteristic of gravity darkening. We find the projected spin orbit angle is consistent with Doppler +19:0 ◦ tomography and constrain the true spin-orbit angle of the system as ' = 108:3−15:4 .
