Abstract

Let H=Δ+VH=-\Delta+V be a Schr\"odinger operator on L2(R2)L^2(\mathbb R^2) 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(R2)L^p(\mathbb R^2) for all 1<p<1< p< \infty if zero is not an eigenvalue or resonance. We show that if there is an s-wave resonance or an eigenvalue only at zero, then the wave operators are bounded on Lp(R2)L^p(\mathbb R^2) for 1<p<1 < p<\infty. This result stands in contrast to results in higher dimensions, where the presence of zero energy obstructions is known to shrink the range of valid exponents pp.
