Scholar-generated biography
Jinghao Cao is a researcher at the California Institute of Technology, specializing in PDE, Mathematical Modelling, and Numerical Analysis. His work explores non-Hermitian systems, wave propagation, and metamaterials, with a focus on subwavelength resonators and time-modulated media. Cao investigates edge modes, nonreciprocal wave behavior, and exceptional points in complex systems. His research combines analytical and numerical methods to understand transmission properties and scattering phenomena in structured media. He has contributed to the development of effective medium theories and fast convolution techniques for non-smooth domains. His studies have implications for advanced optical and acoustic devices.
