Abstract: For certain shapes of inclusions embedded in a body, the field inside the inclusion is uniform for some boundary condition. We provide a construction scheme for inclusions of general shapes having such a uniformity property in two dimensions based on the conformal mapping technique for the potential problem. Using this complex analysis method, we also design non-elliptical neutral coated inclusions with anisotropic conductivity. Neutral coated inclusions do not perturb a background uniform field when they are inserted into a homogeneous matrix. Although coated inclusions of various shapes are neutral to a single field, only concentric ellipses or confocal ellipsoids can be neutral to all uniform fields. This paper presents our work relating to the construction of non-elliptical coated inclusions with anisotropic conductivity in two dimensions that are neutral to all uniform fields, where the assignment of the flux condition on the boundary of the core depends on the applied background field. Using these neutral inclusions, we obtain cylindrical neutral inclusions in three dimensions, with no flux applied to the boundary of the core and with the anisotropic conductivity function of the shell given in accordance with the background uniform field.
