Abstract
The plane-wave decomposition method (PWDM), a widely used means of numerically finding eigenstates of the Helmholtz equation in billiard systems is described as a variant of the mathematically well-established boundary integral method (BIM). A new unified framework encompassing the two methods is discussed. Furthermore, a third numerical method, which we call the Gauge Freedom Method (GFM) is derived from the BIM equations. This opens the way to further improvements in eigenstate search techniques.
