Perfectly absorbing boundary conditions implying no reflection of waves at the boundary have been discussed by several authors, for example by B. Enquist and A. Majda in 1977. Viewed from the interior of a bounded domain one may as well regard the travelling waves as if the domain consisted of the entire space. Thus a numerical solution of waves propagating in a bounded domain may be extended to the infinite domain. In control problems, since no energy is returned from the boundary, one may design stabilization that is robust to uncertainties of the mathematical model. The difficulty arises in obtaining such solutions because now the operators are pseudodifferential, and nonlocal in both space and time. Maxwell equations and models for fictitious materials have been discussed from this point of view. The derived relations have a feedback form, fitting perfectly into control-theoretic arguments. The authors consider a perfectly absorbing feedback control on the boundary of a half-plane domain for the Cauchy problem for a 2-D wave equation with Dirichlet control \(v\) and Neumann output \(w\). The line \(x= 0\) is the nonreflective boundary. Two dynamic systems of wave equations are coupled by the boundary and initial conditions. The feedback has the form \(v=Kw\), where the symbol of the operator is proved to be \(-(1/2\pi)(-\nu^2+ \eta^2)^{-1/2}\). The corollary to this theorem states that the pseudodifferential operator \(K\) is defined by: \(K= (\partial^2_t- \partial^2_y)^{-1/2}\). To design the feedback control capable of convenient numerical approximations, they introduce a diffusive term. They obtain a system that is local in both time and space. Details of numerical computations are promised for a forthcoming paper. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0943.00077].
