Scattering off a potential is a fundamental problem in quantum physics. It has been studied extensively with amplitudes derived for various potentials. In this article, we explore a setting with no potentials, where scattering occurs off a…

A condition, at which the one-dimensional inverse power potential becomes reflectionless during propagation through it of a plane wave, is obtained on the basis of SUSY QM methods. A scattering of a particle on spherically symmetric inverse…

We prove that any set of points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, any three of which form an angle less than $\frac{\pi}{3} + c$, has size $(1+\Theta(c))^d$ for sufficiently small $c>0$. The proof is based on a refinement of an approach by Erd\H{o}s and…
