Recent computational methods for high frequency waves in heterogeneous media

In this note, we review our recent results on the Eulerian computation of high frequency waves in heterogeneous media. We cover three recent methods: the moment method, the level set method, and the computational methods for interface problems in high frequency waves. These approaches are all based on high frequency asymptotic limits.
