Title: Analysis and simulations of Maxwell's equations for invisibility cloaks and graphene
Abstract: Maxwell's equations play an important role in analyzing and modeling wave propagation in
electric and optical materials. In this talk, I'll focus on some time-dependent Maxwell's equations resulting from complex electromagnetic materials such as metamaterials and graphene. We will focus on a rotation cloak model with metamaterials and a graphene model for simulating surface plasmon polaritons. Mathematical analysis and numerical simulations of these models will be discussed. Some open issues will be mentioned.
