Light propagation in local and linear media: Fresnel-Kummer wave surfaces with 16 singular points
Alberto Favaro, Friedrich W. Hehl
It is known that the Fresnel wave surfaces of transparent biaxial media have 4 singular points, located on two special directions. We show that, in more general media, the number o…

Optimal Frames for Polarisation State Reconstruction
Matthew R. Foreman, Alberto Favaro, Andrea Aiello
Complete determination of the polarisation state of light requires at least four distinct projective measurements of the associated Stokes vector. Stability of state reconstruction…

Decomposition of Electromagnetic Q and P Media
I. V. Lindell, A. Favaro
Two previously studied classes of electromagnetic media, labeled as those of Q media and P media, are decomposed according to the natural decomposition introduced by Hehl and Obukh…
