In this paper, we consider a long-wave equivalent medium to a finely parallel-layered inhomogeneous medium, obtained using the Backus average. Following the work of Postma and Backus, we show explicitly the derivations of the conditions to obtain the equivalent isotropic medium. We demonstrate that there cannot exist a transversely isotropic (TI) equivalent medium with the coefficients $c^{overline{rm TI}}_{1212} eq c^{overline{rm TI}}_{2323}$, $c^{overline{rm TI}}_{1111} = c^{overline{rm TI}}_{3333}$ and $c^{overline{rm TI}}_{1122} = c^{overline{rm TI}}_{1133}$. Moreover, we consider a new parameter, $varphi$, indicating the anisotropy of the equivalent medium, and we show its range and properties. Subsequently, we compare $varphi$ to the Thomsen parameters, emphasizing its usefulness as a supportive parameter showing the anisotropy of the equivalent medium or as an alternative parameter to $delta$. We argue with certain Berryman et al. considerations regarding the properties of the anisotropy parameters $epsilon$ and $delta$. Additionally, we show an alternative way---to the one mentioned by Berryman et al.---of indicating changing fluid content in layered Earth.

We consider a long-wave transversely isotropic (TI) medium equivalent to a series of finely parallel-layered isotropic layers, obtained using the citet{Backus} average. In such a TI equivalent medium, we verify the citet{Berrymanetal} method of indic
ating fluids and the authors method citep{Adamus}, using anisotropy parameter $varphi$. Both methods are based on detecting variations of the Lame parameter, $lambda$, in a series of thin isotropic layers, and we treat these variations as potential change of the fluid content. To verify these methods, we use Monte Carlo (MC) simulations; for certain range of Lame parameters $lambda$ and $mu$---relevant to particular type of rocks---we generate numerous combinations of these parameters in thin layers and, after the averaging process, we obtain their TI media counterparts. Subsequently, for each of the aforementioned media, we compute $varphi$ and citet{Thomsen} parameters $epsilon$ and $delta$. We exhibit $varphi$, $epsilon$ and $delta$ in a form of cross-plots and distributions that are relevant to chosen range of $lambda$ and $mu$. We repeat that process for various ranges of Lame parameters. Additionally, to support the MC simulations, we consider several numerical examples of growing $lambda$, by using scale factors. As a result of the thorough analysis of the relations among $varphi$, $epsilon$ and $delta$, we find eleven fluid detectors that compose a new fluid detection method. Based on these detectors, we show the quantified pattern of indicating change of the fluid content.
In this paper, we present the equivalent medium theory by using the linear response theory. It is found that, under the condition of the linear response, a series of different media with different refractive indices $n_{i}(omega)$ and lengths $d_{i}$
can be equivalent to an effective medium with the volume-averaged refractive index $frac{1}{D}sum_{i=1}^{N}n_{i}(omega)d_{i}$ and the total length $D=sum_{i=1i}^{N}d_{i}$,where $N$ is the number of different media. Based on this equivalent theory, it is a simple but very useful method to design the effective medium with any desirable dispersion properties. As an example, we present a proposal to obtain the enhancement or reduction of the refractive index without absorption and the large dispersion without obvious absorption by assembling different linear dispersive gain and absorptive media.
We consider an alternative way of obtaining the effective elastic properties of a cracked medium. Similarly, to the popular linear-slip model, we assume flat, parallel fractures, and long wavelengths. However, we do not treat fractures as weakness pl
anes of displacement discontinuity. In contrast to the classical models, we represent fractures by a thin layer embedded in the background medium. In other words, we follow the Schoenberg-Douma matrix formalism for Backus averaging, but we relax their assumptions of infinite weakness and marginal thickness of a layer so that it does not correspond to the linear-slip plane. To represent the properties of a fracture, we need a fourth order elasticity tensor and a thickness parameter. The effective tensor becomes more complicated, but it may describe a higher concentration of parallel cracks more accurately. Apart from the derivations of the effective elasticity tensors, we perform numerical experiments in which we compare the performance of our approach with a linear-slip model in the context of highly fractured media. Our model becomes pertinent if filled-in cracks occupy more than one percent of the effective medium.
We present a new characterization of Muckenhoupt $A_{infty}$-weights whose logarithm is in $mathrm{VMO}(mathbb{R})$ in terms of vanishing Carleson measures on $mathbb{R}_+^2$ and vanishing doubling weights on $mathbb{R}$. This also gives a novel desc
ription of strongly symmetric homeomorphisms on the real line (a subclass of quasisymmetric homeomorphisms without using quasiconformal extensions.
We examine a search on a graph among a number of different kinds of objects (vertices), one of which we want to find. In a standard graph search, all of the vertices are the same, except for one, the marked vertex, and that is the one we wish to find
. We examine the case in which the unmarked vertices can be of different types, so the background against which the search is done is not uniform. We find that the search can still be successful, but the probability of success is lower than in the uniform background case, and that probability decreases with the number of types of unmarked vertices. We also show how the graph searches can be rephrased as equivalent oracle problems.
