Massive Klein-Gordon theory is quantized on the timelike hypercylinder in Minkowski space. Crucially, not only the propagating, but also the evanescent sector of phase space is included, laying in this way foundations for a quantum…
It is described how quantum field theory went from a theory for calculating the properties of stationary states, in the mold of quantum mechanics, to the scattering-focused theory we know today. This development is located as originating in…
Levinson's theorem for the one-dimensional Schr\"{o}dinger equation with a symmetric potential, which decays at infinity faster than $x^{-2}$, is established by the Sturm-Liouville theorem. The critical case, where the Schr\"{o}dinger…
In this letter, we investigate the effects of Lorentz symmetry violation on a relativistic neutral scalar boson within the framework of the Klein-Gordon formalism. We consider a tensor $(K_F)_{\mu \nu \alpha \beta}$ out of the Standard…
Scattering states with LEED asymptotics are calculated for a general non-muffin tin potential, as e.g. for a pseudopotential with a suitable barrier and image potential part. The latter applies especially to the case of low lying conduction…
In the present work a general frame for the scattering theory of local, relativistic dipole quantum fields is presented and some models of interacting dipole fields are considered, i.e. local, relativistic quantum fields with indefinite…
A topological version of Levinson's theorem is presented. Its proof relies on a C*-algebraic framework which is introduced in detail. Various scattering systems are considered in this framework, and more coherent explanations for the…
The variable-phase approach is applied to scattering and bound states in an attractive Coulomb potential, statically screened by a two-dimensional (2D) electron gas. A 2D formulation of Levinson's theorem is used for bound-state counting…
The properties of scattering phases in quantum dots are analyzed with the help of lattice models. We first derive the expressions relating the different scattering phases and the dot Green functions. We analyze in detail the Friedel sum…
We present a heuristic derivation of the strong form of the Levinson theorem for one-dimensional quasi-periodic potentials. The particular potential chosen is a distorted Kronig-Penney model. This theorem relates the phase shifts of the…
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 flux-across-surfaces theorem establishes a fundamental relation in quantum scattering theory between the asymptotic outgoing state and a quantity which is directly measured in experiments. We prove it for a hamiltonian with a point…
Methods from scattering theory are introduced to analyze random Schroedinger operators in one dimension by applying a volume cutoff to the potential. The key ingredient is the Lifshitz-Krein spectral shift function, which is related to the…
We investigate the propagation of a massless scalar field on a star graph, modeling the junction of $n$ quantum wires. The vertex of the graph is represented by a point-like impurity (defect), characterized by a one-body scattering matrix.…
A slight modification of one axiom of quantum theory changes a reversible theory into a time asymmetric theory. Whereas the standard Hilbert space axiom does not distinguish mathematically between the space of states (in-states of…
Here we discuss two many-particle quantum systems, which are obtained by adding some nonhermitian but PT (i.e. combined parity and time reversal) invariant interaction to the Calogero model with and without confining potential. It is shown…
We consider mathematical models of the weak decay of the vector bosons $W^{\pm}$ into leptons. The free quantum field hamiltonian is perturbed by an interaction term from the standard model of particle physics. After the introduction of…
The scattering and bound states of the many-body systems, related to the short-range Dyson model, are studied. First, we show that the scattering states can be realized as coherent states and the scattering Hamiltonian can be connected to a…
We present a quantization condition for the spectrum of a system composed of three identical bosons in a finite volume with periodic boundary conditions. This condition gives a relation between the finite volume spectrum and infinite volume…
In this work, we study the scattering of a spinless charged particle constrained to move on a curved surface in the presence of the Aharonov-Bohm potential. We begin with the equations of motion for the surface and transverse dynamics…
