In (1+1)-dimensional quantum field theory, integrability is typically defined as the existence of an infinite number of local charges of different Lorentz spin, which commute with the Hamiltonian. A well known consequence of integrability…

It is shown that the emergence of obstacles to asymptotic integrability in the analysis of perturbed evolution equations may, often, be a consequence of the manner, in which the freedom in the ex-pansion is exploited in the derivation of…

In this brief note, we consider a wave equation that has both trapping and a complex potential. For this problem, we prove a uniform bound on the energy and a Morawetz (or integrated local energy decay) estimate. The equation is a model…
