From ray tracing to waves of topological origin in continuous media

Continuous media commonly support a discrete number of wave modes that are trapped along interfaces defined by spatially varying parameters. In the case of multicomponent wave problems, those trapped modes fill a frequency gap between different wave bands. When they are robust against continuous def...
