The aim of the lecture is to briefly describe the mathematical background of scattering theory for two- and three-particle quantum systems. We discuss basic objects of the theory: wave and scattering operators and the corresponding…
We consider a massive, neutral, scalar field theory of mass $m_0$ in a five dimensional flat spacetime. Subsequently, one spatial dimension is compactified on a circle, $S^1$, ofradius $R$. The resulting theory is defined in the manifold,…
The transport of charged particles or photons in a scattering medium can be modelled with a Boltzmann equation. The mathematical treatment for scattering in such scenarios is often simplified if evaluated in a frame where the scattering…
We review the spectral analysis and the time-dependent approach of scattering theory for manifolds with asymptotically cylindrical ends. For the spectral analysis, higher order resolvent estimates are obtained via Mourre theory for both…
This paper proves new results on spectral and scattering theory for matrix-valued Schr\"odinger operators on the discrete line with non-compactly supported perturbations whose first moments are assumed to exist. In particular, a Levinson…
The standard S-matrix formulation cannot generally be used in the treatment of atomic scattering processes, involving bound-state QED effects, due to the special type of singularity that can here appear. This type of singularity can be…
The traditional $S$-matrix does not exist for theories with massless particles, such as quantum electrodynamics. The difficulty in isolating asymptotic states manifests itself as infrared divergences at each order in perturbation theory.…
The Wigner-Smith (WS) time delay matrix relates a lossless system's scattering matrix to its frequency derivative. First proposed in the realm of quantum mechanics to characterize time delays experienced by particles during a collision,…
We investigate elliptic fractional equations in the whole space, involving zero order perturbations of the fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta)^s$, $0<s<1$. Our main objective is to determine appropriate radiation conditions at infinity that…
We study the Klein paradox for the semi-classical Dirac operator on $\R$ with potentials having constant limits, not necessarily the same at infinity. Using the complex WKB method, the time-independent scattering theory in terms of incoming…
We construct an isometric modified scattering operator, mapping any sufficiently regular past scattering state, with a small distribution function, to the future one corresponding to forward evolution by the Vlasov-Maxwell system. The main…
We study baryon-baryon scattering by applying time-ordered perturbation theory to the manifestly Lorentz-invariant formulation of SU(3) baryon chiral perturbation theory. We derive the corresponding diagrammatic rules paying special…
This work studies the semiclassical methods in multi-dimensional quantum systems bounded by finite potentials. By replacing the Maslov index by the scattering phase, the modified transfer operator method gives rather accurate corrections to…
A crucial element of scattering theory and the LSZ reduction formula is the assumption that the coupling vanishes at large times. This is known not to hold for the theories of the Standard Model and in general such asymptotic dynamics is…
In this paper, we define time-independent modifiers to construct a long-range scattering theory for discrete schr\"odinger operators on the square lattice $\mathbb{Z}^N$. We prove the existence and completeness of modified wave operators in…
A family of discrete Schroedinger operators is investigated through scattering theory. The continuous spectrum of these operators exhibit changes of multiplicity, and some of these operators possess resonances at thresholds. It is shown…
The Wigner time delay is a measure of the time spent by a particle inside the scattering region of an open system. For chaotic systems, the statistics of the individual delay times (whose average is the Wigner time delay) are thought to be…
The idea that symmetries simplify or reduce the complexity of a system has been remarkably fruitful in physics, and especially in quantum mechanics. On a mathematical level, symmetry groups single out a certain structure in the Hilbert…
In this work, the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) is assessed as a time-domain numerical approach for electromagnetic wave scattering. Owing to its explicit formulation and suitability for parallel computation on structured grids, LBM…
In this paper, we will analyze the short distance corrections to low energy scattering. They are produced because of an intrinsic extended structure of the background geometry of spacetime. It will be observed that the deformation produced…
