Abstract: The far field refractor problem with a discrete target is solved with a numerical scheme that uses and simplify ideas from Caffarelli, Kochengin and Oliker. A numerical implementation is carried out and examples are shown.

Review text

The main goal of the paper is to present an algorithm to construct far field one source refractors with arbitrary precision. The developed numerical scheme uses and simplify ideas from the paper [\textit{L. A. Caffarelli} et al., Contemp. Math. 226, 13--32 (1999; Zbl 0917.65104)], where an algorithm to construct far field point source global reflectors is presented. In the paper a numerical implementation is carried out and examples are shown.
