For any positive real number $s$, we study the scattering theory in a unified way for the fractional Schr\"{o}dinger operator $H=H_0+V$, where $H_0=(-\Delta)^\frac s2$ and the real-valued potential $V$ satisfies short range condition. We…

We consider the unperturbed operator $H_0: = (-i \nabla - {\bf A})^2 + W$, self-adjoint in $L^2({\mathbb R}^2)$. Here ${\bf A}$ is a magnetic potential which generates a constant magnetic field $b>0$, and the edge potential $W = \bar{W}$ is…

In this paper, we study the direct and inverse scattering of the Schr\"odinger equation in a three-dimensional planar waveguide. For the direct problem, we derive a resonance-free region and resolvent estimates for the resolvent of the…

It is well known that the spectrum of the Dirichlet Laplacian for a two-dimensional waveguide, which is a local deformation of a straight strip, is unstable with respect to waveguide boundary deformations. This means that, when the…

Coherent control has enabled various novel phenomena in wave scattering. We introduce an effect called coherent orthogonal scattering, where the output wave becomes orthogonal to the reference output state without scatterers. This effect…

We study spectral properties of the Carleman operator (the Hankel operator with kernel $h_{0}(t)=t^{-1}$) and, in particular, find an explicit formula for its resolvent. Then we consider perturbations of the Carleman operator $H_{0}$ by…
