Modal decompositions and point scatterer approximations near the Minnaert resonance frequencies

Abstract
As a continuation of the previous works \cite{ammari2018minnaert,ammari2020biomimetic,MR4009331}, this paper provides several contributions to the mathematical analysis of subwavelength resonances in a high-contrast medium containing \(N\) acoustic obstacles. Our approach is based on an exact decomposition formula which reduces the solution of the sound scattering problem to that of a \(N\) dimensional linear system, and characterizes resonant frequencies as the solutions to a \(N\)-dimensional nonlinear eigenvalue problem. Under a simplicity assumptions on the eigenvalues of the capacitance matrix, we prove the analyticity of the scattering resonances with respect to the square root of the contrast parameter, and we provide a deterministic algorithm allowing to compute all terms of the corresponding Puiseux series. We then establish a nonlinear modal decomposition formula for the scattered field as well as point scatterer approximations for the far field pattern of the sound wave scattered by \(N\) bodies. As a prerequisite to our analysis, a first part of the work establishes various novel results about the capacitance matrix, since qualitative properties of the resonances, such as the leading order of the scattering frequencies or of the corresponding far field pattern are closely related to its spectral decomposition.

Keywords: Subwavelength resonance, high-contrast medium, modal decomposition, point scatterer approximation, capacitance matrix, holomorphic integral operators.
