Abstract

We prove that the wave operators for n×nn \times n matrix Schr\"odinger equations on the half line, with general selfadjoint boundary condition, are bounded in the spaces Lp(R+,Cn),1<p<,L^p(\mathbb R^+, \mathbb C^n), 1 < p < \infty, for slowly decaying selfadjoint matrix potentials, V,V, that satisfy 0(1+x)V(x)dx<.\int_{0}^{\infty }\, (1+x) |V(x)|\, dx < \infty. Moreover, assuming that 0(1+xγ)V(x)dx<,γ>52,\int_{0}^{\infty }\, (1+x^\gamma) |V(x)|\, dx < \infty, \gamma > \frac{5}{2}, and that the scattering matrix is the identity at zero and infinite energy, we prove that the wave operators are bounded in L1(R+,Cn),L^1(\mathbb R^+, \mathbb C^n), and in L(R+,Cn).L^\infty(\mathbb R^+, \mathbb C^n). We also prove that the wave operators for n×nn\times n matrix Schr\"odinger equations on the line are bounded in the spaces Lp(R,Cn),1<p<,L^p(\mathbb R, \mathbb C^n), 1 < p < \infty, assuming that the perturbation consists of a point interaction at the origin and of a potential, V,\mathcal V, that satisfies the condition (1+x)V(x)dx<.\int_{-^{\infty}}^{\infty}\, (1+|x|)\, |\mathcal V(x)|\, dx < \infty. Further, assuming that (1+xγ)V(x)dx<,γ>52,\int_{-\infty}^{\infty }\, (1+|x|^\gamma) |\mathcal V(x)|\,dx < \infty, \gamma > \frac{5}{2}, and that the scattering matrix is the identity at zero and infinite energy, we prove that the wave operators are bounded in L1(R,Cn),L^1(\mathbb R, \mathbb C^n), and in L(R,Cn).L^\infty(\mathbb R, \mathbb C^n). We obtain our results for n×nn\times n matrix Schr\"odinger equations on the line from the results for 2n×2n2n\times 2n matrix Schr\"odinger equations on the half line.

Comments

The paper has been edited. Details of some proofs have been added, and the results in the boundedness of the wave operators in $L^1$ and in $L^\infty.$ are stated under slightly stronger conditions in the decay at infinity of the potential
