Abstract

Let H=Δ+VH=-\Delta+V be a Schr\"odinger operator on L2(R4)L^2(\mathbb R^4) with real-valued potential VV, and let H0=ΔH_0=-\Delta. If VV has sufficient pointwise decay, the wave operators W±=slimt±eitHeitH0W_{\pm}=s-\lim_{t\to \pm\infty} e^{itH}e^{-itH_0} are known to be bounded on Lp(R4)L^p(\mathbb R^4) for all 1p1\leq p\leq \infty if zero is not an eigenvalue or resonance, and on 43<p<4\frac43<p<4 if zero is an eigenvalue but not a resonance. We show that in the latter case, the wave operators are also bounded on Lp(R4)L^p(\mathbb R^4) for 1p431\leq p\leq \frac43 by direct examination of the integral kernel of the leading terms. Furthermore, if R4xV(x)ψ(x)dx=0\int_{\mathbb R^4} xV(x) \psi(x) \, dx=0 for all zero energy eigenfunctions ψ\psi, then the wave operators are bounded on LpL^p for 1p<1 \leq p<\infty.
