Probability of reflection $R(E)$ off a finite attractive scattering potential at zero or low energies is ordinarily supposed to be 1. However, a fully attractive potential presents a paradoxical result that $R(0)=0$ or $R(0)<1$, when an…

We calculate effective potentials in scalar field theories on the maximally supersymmetric pp-wave background in ten dimensions. For this purpose we have to work in the light-cone formulation, and hence we introduce two methods to compute…
The idea of the effective topological theory for high-energy scattering proposed by H. and E. Verlinde is applied to the $(2+1)$ dimensional gravity with Einstein action plus Chern-Simons terms. The calculational steps in the topological…
We consider the massive Thirring model in the laboratory coordinates and explain how the inverse scattering transform can be developed with the Riemann-Hilbert approach. The key ingredient of our method is to transform the corresponding…

One major purpose of studying the single-site scattering problem is to obtain the scattering matrices and differential equation solutions indispensable to multiple scattering theory (MST) calculations. On the other hand, the single-site…
A distorted-wave version of the renormalisation group is applied to scattering by an inverse-square potential and to three-body systems. In attractive three-body systems, the short-distance wave function satisfies a Schroedinger equation…
