We give explicit analytic criteria for two problems associated with the Schr\"odinger operator $H = -\Delta + Q$ on $L^2(\R^n)$ where $Q\in D'(\R^n)$ is an arbitrary real- or complex-valued potential. First, we obtain necessary and…

Consider a Schr\"odinger operator on an asymptotically Euclidean manifold $X$ of dimension at least two, and suppose that the potential is of attractive Coulomb-like type. Using Vasy's second 2nd-microlocal approach, "the Lagrangian…

We prove an abstract criterion stating resolvent convergence in the case of operators acting in different Hilbert spaces. This result is then applied to the case of Laplacians on a family $X_\eps$ of branched quantum waveguides. Combining…

On a fixed smooth compact Riemann surface with boundary $(M_0,g)$, we show that the Cauchy data space (or Dirichlet-to-Neumann map $\mc{N}$) of the Schr\"odinger operator $\Delta +V$ with $V\in C^2(M_0)$ determines uniquely the potential…

We determine the low-energy behaviour of the scattering operator of two-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators with any type of obstructions at 0-energy. We also derive explicit formulas for the wave operators in the absence of p-resonances,…
