Nonlinear optical waveguide lattices: Asymptotic analysis, solitons, and topological insulators

MJ Ablowitz, JT Cole - Physica D: Nonlinear Phenomena, 2022 - Elsevier
In recent years, there has been considerable interest in the study of wave propagation in
nonlinear photonic lattices. The interplay between nonlinearity and periodicity has led …

H Ammari, B Davies, EO Hiltunen - arXiv preprint arXiv:2106.12301, 2021 - arxiv.org
We survey functional analytic methods for studying subwavelength resonator systems. In
particular, rigorous discrete approximations of Helmholtz scattering problems are derived in …

Edge states and the valley Hall effect

A Drouot, MI Weinstein - Advances in Mathematics, 2020 - Elsevier
We study energy propagation along line-defects (edges) in two dimensional continuous,
energy preserving periodic media. The unperturbed medium (bulk) is modeled by a …

Microlocal analysis of the bulk-edge correspondence

A Drouot - Communications in Mathematical Physics, 2021 - Springer
The bulk-edge correspondence predicts that interfaces between topological insulators
support robust currents. We prove this principle for PDEs that are periodic away from an …

Double-negative acoustic metamaterials

H Ammari, B Fitzpatrick, H Lee, S Yu, H Zhang - Quarterly of Applied …, 2019 - JSTOR
The aim of this paper is to provide a mathematical theory for understanding the mechanism
behind the double-negative refractive index phenomenon in bubbly fluids. The design of …

The bulk-edge correspondence for continuous honeycomb lattices

A Drouot - Communications in Partial Differential Equations, 2019 - Taylor & Francis
We study bulk/edge aspects of continuous honeycomb lattices in a magnetic field. We
compute the bulk index of Bloch eigenbundles: it equals 2 or–2, with sign depending on …

Edge modes in subwavelength resonators in one dimension

H Ammari, S Barandun, J Cao, F Feppon - Multiscale Modeling & Simulation, 2023 - SIAM
We present the mathematical theory of one-dimensional infinitely periodic chains of
subwavelength resonators. We analyze both Hermitian and non-Hermitian systems …

Robust edge modes in dislocated systems of subwavelength resonators

H Ammari, B Davies, EO Hiltunen - Journal of the London …, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Robustly manipulating waves on subwavelength scales can be achieved by, first, designing
a structure with a subwavelength band gap and, second, introducing a defect so that …

Exceptional Points in Parity--Time-Symmetric Subwavelength Metamaterials

H Ammari, B Davies, EO Hiltunen, H Lee, S Yu - SIAM Journal on …, 2022 - SIAM
When sources of energy gain and loss are introduced to a wave scattering system, the
underlying mathematical formulation will be non-Hermitian. This paves the way for the …
