We study the scattering problem for the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation $i\partial_t u + \Delta u = |u|^p u$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d\geq 1$, with a mass-subcritical nonlinearity above the Strauss exponent. For this equation, it is known that…
We review the spectral and the scattering theory for the Aharonov-Bohm model on R^2. New formulae for the wave operators and for the scattering operator are presented. The asymptotics at high and at low energy of the scattering operator are…

The current paper is devoted to the scattering theory of a class of continuum Schr\"{o}dinger operators with deterministic sparse potentials. We first establish the limiting absorption principle for both modified free resolvents and…
