Abstract

We consider a non-self-adjoint HH given as the perturbation of a self-adjoint operator H0H_0. We suppose that HH is of the form H=H0+CWCH=H_0+CWC where CC is a bounded, positive definite and relatively compact with respect to H0H_0, and WW is bounded. We suppose that C(H0z)1CC(H_0-z)^{-1}C is uniformly bounded in zCRz\in\mathbb{C}\setminus\mathbb{R}. We define the regularized wave operators associated to HH and H0H_0 by W±(H,H0):=slimte±itHr(H)Πp(H)eitH0W_\pm(H,H_0):=\displaystyle\mathbb{s}-\lim_{t\rightarrow\infty} e^{\pm itH}r_\mp(H)\Pi_\mathrm{p}(H^\star)^\perp e^{\mp itH_0} where Πp(H)\Pi_\mathrm{p}(H^\star) is the projection onto the direct sum of all the generalized eigenspace associated to eigenvalue of HH^\star and rr_\mp is a rational function that regularizes the `incoming/outgoing spectral singularities' of HH. We prove the existence and study the properties of the regularized wave operators. In particular we show that they are asymptotically complete if HH does not have any spectral singularity.
