Mathematics<br>Ph.D.<br>We introduce two models to design near field reflectors in R^3 that solve an inverse problem in radiometry, taking into account the inverse square law of irradiance. The problem leads to a Monge-Ampere type inequality. The surfaces in the first model are strictly convex and require to be far from the source to avoid obstruction. In the second model, the reflectors are neither convex nor concave and do not block the rays even if they are close to the source.<br>Temple University--Theses

Abstract:
Since their experimental discovery in 2008, topological insulators have been catapulted to the forefront of condensed matter physics research owing to their potential to realize both exciting new technologies as well as novel electronic phases that are inaccessible in any other material class. Their exotic properties arise from a rare quantum organization of its electrons called ``topological order,'' which evades the conventional broken symmetry based-classification scheme used to categorize nearly every other state of ordered matter. Instead, topologically ordered phases are classified by to

Analysis of VSFG data can be complicated by the presence of SFG signal that is not associated with a resonant vibration.

However, this drag effect in a non-dispersive medium is very small and thus difficult to measure. We show that the drag effect is enhanced significantly when the moving medium is highly dispersive.

Abstract:
Results following from time reversal symmetry are developed for those nonlinear optical processes where a statistical average is required. This extends results found in Rayleigh (and Raman) scattering to nonlinear optical processes of arbitrary order, and generalises those few analyses specific to nonlinear optics. For example, Onsager relations for self-conjugate nonlinear optical processes (when input and output photons form degenerate pairs) are derived, and associated reversality relations generalised. In the nonresonant limit magnetic dipole but not electric quadrupole terms in coherent p
