Abstract

We consider solutions to the Helmholtz equation in two dimensions. The aim of this article is to advance the development of high-order asymptotic expansions for boundary perturbations of currents caused by small perturbations of the shape of an inhomogeneity with 𝒞2-boundary. The work represents a natural completion of Ammari et al. [H. Ammari, H. Kang, M. Lim, and H. Zribi, Conductivity interface problems. Part I: Small perturbations of an interface, Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 363 (2010), pp. 2901–2922], where the solution for the Helmholtz equation is represented by a system and the proof of our asymptotic expansion is radically different from Ammari et al. (2010). Our derivation is rigorous and is based on the field expansion method. Its proof relies on layer potential techniques. It plays a key role in developing effective algorithms to determine certain properties of the shape of an inhomogeneity based on boundary measurements.
