A High-Order Perturbation of Envelopes (HOPE) Method for Vector Electromagnetic Scattering by Periodic Inhomogeneous Media: Analytic Continuation
<|reference_start|>A High-Order Perturbation of Envelopes (HOPE) Method for Vector Electromagnetic Scattering by Periodic Inhomogeneous Media: Analytic Continuation: Electromagnetic waves interacting with three--dimensional periodic structures occur in many applications of great scientific and engineering interest. These three dimensional interactions are extremely complicated and subtle, so it is unsurprising that practitioners find their rapid, robust, and accurate numerical simulation to be of paramount interest. Among the wide array of possible numerical approaches, the High--Order Spectral algorithms are often preferred due to their surpassing fidelity with a moderate number of unknowns, and here we describe an algorithm that fits into this class. In addition, we take a perturbative approach to the problem which views the deviation of the permittivity from a reference value as the deformation and we conduct a regular perturbation theory. This work concludes a line of research on these methods which began with two-dimensional problems governed by the Helmholtz equation and moved to small perturbations in the fully three-dimensional vector Maxwell equations. We now extend these latter results to large (real) perturbations constituting a rigorous analytic continuation.<|reference_end|>
