We develop a mathematical theory to explain the mechanism of super-resolution in resonant media which consists of sub-wavelength resonators. Examples includes: Helmholtz resonators, plasmonic particles, and bubbles. For the media consists of small finite number of resonators, we show that super-resolution is due to sub-wavelength propagating mod...

Invariant manifolds and foliations have become very useful tools in dynamical systems. For infinite dimensional systems generated by evolutionary PDEs, the mere existence of these structures is non-trivial compared to those of ODEs due to issues such as the non-existence of backward (in time) solutions of some PDEs or nonlinear terms causing der...
