Spectral and Scattering Theory for Wave Propagation in Perturbed Stratified Media

Spectral and Scattering Theory for Wave Propagation in Perturbed Stratified Media by Ricardo Weder.

The propagation of acoustic and electromagnetic waves in stratified media is a subject that has profound implications in many areas of applied physics and in engineering, just to mention a few, in ocean acoustics, integrated optics, and wave guides. See for example Tolstoy and Clay 1966, Marcuse 197...
