An optimal control problem is studied for a quasilinear Maxwell equation of nondegenerate parabolic
type. Well-posedness of the quasilinear state equation, existence of an optimal control, and weak G\^ateaux-differentiability of the control-to-state mapping are proved. Based on these results, first-order necessary optimality conditions and
an associated adjoint calculus are derived.
A mathematical model is set up that can be useful for controlled voltage excitation in time-dependent electromagnetism.
The well-posedness of the model is proved and an associated optimal control problem is investigated. Here, the control
function is a transient voltage and the aim of the control is the best approximation of desired electric and magnetic fields in
suitable $L^2$-norms.
Special emphasis is laid on an adjoint calculus for first-order necessary optimality conditions.
Moreover, a {peculiar attention is devoted to propose a formulation for which the computational complexity of the finite element solution method is substantially reduced}.
We report the cancellation of the soliton self-frequency shift in nonlinear optical fibers. A soliton which interacts with a group velocity matched low intensity dispersive pump pulse, experiences a continuous blue-shift in frequency, which counteracts the soliton self- frequency shift due to Raman scattering. The soliton self-frequency shift can be fully compensated by a suitably prepared dispersive wave. We quantify this kind of soliton-dispersive wave interaction by an adiabatic approach and demonstrate that the compensation is stable in agreement with numerical simulations.
We consider the phenomenon of an optical soliton controlled (e.g. amplified) by a much weaker second pulse which is efficiently scattered at the soliton. An important problem in this context is to quantify the small range of parameters at which the interaction takes place. This has been achieved by using adiabatic ODEs for the soliton characteristics, which is much faster than an empirical scan of the full propagation equations for all parameters in question.
We consider scattering of small-amplitude dispersive waves at an intense optical soliton which constitutes a nonlinear perturbation of the refractive index. Specifically, we consider a single-mode optical fiber and a group velocity matched pair: an optical soliton and a nearly perfectly reflected dispersive wave, a fiber-optical analogue of the event horizon. By combining (i) an adiabatic approach that is used in soliton perturbation theory and (ii) scattering theory from Quantum Mechanics, we give a quantitative account for the evolution of all soliton parameters. In particular, we quantify the increase in the soliton peak power that may result in spontaneous appearance of an extremely large, so-called champion soliton. The presented adiabatic theory agrees well with the numerical solutions of the pulse propagation equation. Moreover, for the first time we predict the full frequency band of the scattered dispersive waves and explain an emerging caustic structure in the space-time domain.
Physics of short optical pulses is an important and active research area in nonlinear optics. In what follows we theoretically consider the most extreme representatives of short pulses that contain only several oscillations of electromagnetic field. Description of such pulses is traditionally based on envelope equations and slowly varying envelope approximation, despite the fact that the envelope is not “slow” and, moreover, there is no clear definition of such a “fast” envelope. This happens due to another paradoxical feature: the standard (envelope) generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation yields very good correspondence to numerical solutions of full Maxwell equations even for few-cycle pulses, a thing that should not be. In what follows we address ultrashort optical pulses using Hamiltonian framework for nonlinear waves. As it appears, the standard optical envelope equation is just a reformulation of general Hamiltonian equations. In a sense, no approximations are required, this is why the generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation is so effective. Moreover, the Hamiltonian framework greatly contributes to our understanding of “fast” envelope, ultrashort solitons, stability and radiation of optical pulses. Even the inclusion of dissipative terms is possible making the Hamiltonian approach an universal theoretical tool also in extreme nonlinear optics.
We derive an optoelectronic model based on a gradient formulation for the relaxation of electron-, hole- and photon-densities to their equilibrium state. This leads to a coupled system of partial and ordinary differential equations, for which we discuss the isothermal and the non-isothermal scenario separately.
We show the existence of solutions to a system of elliptic PDEs, that was recently introduced to describe the electrothermal behavior of organic semiconductor devices. Here, two diffculties appear: (i) the elliptic term in the current-flow equation is of p(x)-Laplacian type with discontinuous exponent p, which limits the use of standard methods, and (ii) in the heat equation, we have to deal with an a priori L1 term on the right hand side describing the Joule heating in the device. We prove the existence of a weak solution under very weak assumptions on the data. Our existence proof is based on Schauder’s fixed point theorem and the concept of entropy solutions for the heat equation. Here, the crucial point is the continuous dependence of the entropy solutions on the data of the problem.
Classical gradient systems have a linear relation between rates and driving forces. In generalized gradient systems we allow for arbitrary relations derived from general non-quadratic dissipation potentials. This paper describes two natural origins for these structures.
A first microscopic origin of generalized gradient structures is given by the theory of large-deviation principles. While Markovian diffusion processes lead to classical gradient structures, Poissonian jump processes give rise to cosh-type dissipation potentials.
A second origin arises via a new form of convergence, that we call EDP-convergence. Even when starting with classical gradient systems, where the dissipation potential is a quadratic functional of the rate, we may obtain a generalized gradient system in the evolutionary -limit. As examples we treat (i) the limit of a diffusion equation having a thin layer of low diffusivity, which leads to a membrane model, and (ii) the limit of difusion over a high barrier, which gives a reaction-diffusion system.
Large-area organic light-emitting diodes are thin-film multilayer devices that show pronounced self-heating and brightness inhomogeneities at high currents. As these high currents are typical for lighting applications, a deeper understanding of the mechanisms causing these inhomogeneities is necessary. We discuss the modeling of the interplay between current flow, self-heating, and heat transfer in such devices using a system of partial differential equations of thermistor type, that is capable of explaining the development of luminance inhomogeneities. The system is based on the heat equation for the temperature coupled to a p(x)-Laplace-type equation for the electrostatic potential with mixed boundary conditions. The p(x)-Laplacian allows to take into account non-Ohmic electrical behavior of the different organic layers. Moreover, we present analytical results on the existence, boundedness, and regularity of solutions to the system. A numerical scheme based on the finite-volume method allows for efficient simulations of device structures.
