Abstract

We prove compactness of a restricted set of real-valued, compactly supported potentials VV for which the corresponding Schr\"odinger operators HVH_V have the same resonances, including multiplicities. More specifically, let BR(0)B_R(0) be the ball of radius R>0R > 0 about the origin in RdR^d, for d=1,3d=1,3. Let IR(V0)\mathcal{I}_R (V_0) be the set of real-valued potentials in C0(BR(0);R)C_0^\infty( \overline{B}_R(0); R) so that the corresponding Schr\"odinger operators have the same resonances, including multiplicities, as HV0H_{V_0}. We prove that the set IR(V0)\mathcal{I}_R (V_0) is a compact subset of C0(BR(0))C_0^\infty (\overline{B}_R(0)) in the CC^\infty-topology. An extension to Sobolev spaces of less regular potentials is discussed.
