Completeness and orthogonality of quasinormal modes in leaky optical cavities
Abstract
It is shown that for the scalar analog of electrodynamics in one dimension, the quasinormal modes of a leaky cavity form a complete set inside the cavity, provided the cavity is defined by a discontinuity in the refractive index. This condition is sufficiently general to apply to a number of interesting examples. The quasinormal modes are also orthogonal under a modified definition of the inner product. The completeness and orthogonality hold even though the cavity is not a Hermitian system by itself. These properties allow the discrete quasinormal modes to be used as the basis for dynamics of the scalar wave in the cavity.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
