Introduction • Light propagation in amplifying media is of theoretical and experimental interests. • Theoretically, they’re modeled with complex potentials to represent non-conservative amplifying systems. • Since gain systems are assumed to reach a state of equilibrium, they are usually studied using the stationary wave equation. • However, a study by Soukoulis et al. using the time-dependent wave equation showed that the transmission and reflection diverge after a critical lasing threshold. i.e.The results obtained from the stationary wave equation are only physical below the threshold.
Introduction • In this work we try to: • Clarify the discrepancy between the stationary and time-dependent results. • Treat EM and Schrödinger wave equations are treated in parallel and this resulted in a mapping between them.

Resonce Poles • The resonance poles of for the Schrödinger equation on the complex k-plane with a potential directly proportional to the energy have very similar structure to the resonance poles of for the wave equation on the complex ω-plane
The Discrepancy is due to the Resonance poles • The instability of stationary states is related to the time dependence factors: • SE • EM
The Discrepancy and the Resonance poles • To confirm this ansatz: • We consider a wave packet with a given energy that is close to one of the resonance poles in the lower half plane. • We put this pole in the lower half plane under scope ( k-plane or E-plane , or ω-plane). • Tune the amplification potential until the pole crosses to the upper half plane. • Study the transmission for the stationary and dynamical wave equations • Before the pole crossing • At crossing • After crossing
Resolving the Discrepancy • The transition of a resonance pole for different amplification potentials for the Schrödinger equation in the complex k-plane with a potential directly proportional to the energy

Conclusion • This work confirms the discrepancy between the results of the stationary and dynamical wave equations as in the literature. • A mapping between the SE and the EM wave equations wave obtained through an energy dependent potential. • The drop in the transmission for the stationary wave equations was found to occur as the corresponding resonance pole crosses the real axis on the energy or frequency plane. • The divergence in the transmission for the dynamical wave equations was found to occur as the corresponding resonance pole crosses the real axis on the energy or frequency plane.
