β¦ Synopsis
A boundary integral equation for the eigenmode of photonic crystal fibers is formulated and numerically solved using the Nystr ΓΆm method. The real and imaginary parts of the propagation constant, which are related to the dispersion and the confinement loss of fibers, are obtained using a secant method. This formulation is very flexible to handle the fiber geometry, and therefore can be applied to photonic crystal fibers with novel refractive index profile and hole geometry.

In this paper the connection is developed between the direct and indirect boundary-integral equation methods of linear elastostatics from both a physical and a mathematical viewpoint. It is shown that the indirect method in its various forms, like the direct method, can be derived from Somigliana's
Boundary integral equation (boundary element) methods have the advantage over other commonly used numerical methods that they do not require values of the unknowns at points within the solution domain to be computed. Further benefits would be obtained if attention could be confined to information at
