Abstract

We will analyze some perfectly matched layers (PMLs) for the one-dimensional time-dependent Maxwell system, acoustic equations and hyperbolic systems in unbounded domains. The exponential decays and convergence of the PML solutions are studied. Some finite difference schemes are proposed for the PML equations and their stability and convergence are established.
