Existence conjecture for interpolated reflectors with finitely many point targets
Existence conjecture for interpolated reflectors with finitely many point targets
Let be a simply connected open set in , let , and let . Suppose that is nonnegative and satisfies outside . Let be nonnegative real numbers satisfying
Interpolated-reflector existence conjecture. There exists an interpolated reflector such that for every .
This conjecture would provide interpolated reflector designs realizing arbitrary prescribed masses at finitely many point targets. The paper notes that such designs would be practically useful, while the stated existence claim remains open.
