In this dissertation, new algorithms to solve the H ∞-norm approximation problem are proposed. These algorithms are iterative and can be classified as time-domain or frequency-domain schemes. The major step in each iteration involves the solution of an identification problem. Me…

The work in thesis aims at developing an efficient unidirectional Time-Domain technique for modeling the propagation of short and ultra short pulsed optical beams in devices containing dispersive material. The non-paraxial Time-Domain Beam Propagation Method (TD-BPM) has been de…

Exomoons remain amongst the most elusive targets in observational astronomy. Nevertheless, these worlds stand to provide an unprecedented window into the formation and evolution of planetary systems. If the Solar System is any guide, we can expect exomoons will be geologically a…
