Integral Equation Methods in Scattering Theory (Pure & Applied Mathematics)

Provides a broad survey of integral equation methods in scattering theory, including both the direct and inverse problems. Presents a mathematical treatment of acoustic and electromagnetic waves. Covers basic properties of solutions to the Helmholtz and Maxwell equations. Includes discussions on the Riesz-Fredholm theory of compact operations, entire functions of a complex variable, univalent function theory, improperly posed problems, and weak compactness.
