The formalism of relativistic partial wave expansion is developed for four-point celestial amplitudes of massless external particles. In particular, relativistic partial waves are found as eigenfunctions to the product representation of…
Distorted plane waves, sometimes called Eisenstein functions, are a family of eigenfunctions of a Schr\"odinger operator that are not square integrable. More precisely, they can be written as the sum of a plane wave and an outgoing wave. We…
The scattering problem under the influence of the Aharonov-Bohm (AB) potential is reconsidered. By solving the Lippmann-Schwinger (LS) equation we obtain the wave function of the scattering state in this system. In spite of working with a…
We apply the recently generalized Levinson theorem for potentials with inverse square singularities [Sheka et al, Phys.Rev.A, v.68, 012707 (2003)] to Aharonov-Bohm systems in two-dimensions. By this theorem, the number of bound states in a…
Quantized orbital structures are typical for many aspects of classical gravity (Newton's as well as Einstein's). The astronomical phenomenon of orbital resonances is a well-known example. Recently, Rothman, Ellis and Murugan (2001)…
The theory of perturbations of spherically symmetric self-similar black holes is presented, in the Newman-Penrose formalism. It is shown that the wave equations for gravitational, electromagnetic, and scalar waves are separable, though not…

In this paper we present the connection between scattering amplitudes in momentum space and wave functions in coordinate space, generalizing previous work done for s-waves to any partial wave. The relationship to the wave function of the…

Spherically symmetric shock waves are shown to exist in Lovelock gravity. They amount to a change of branch of the spherically symmetric solutions across a null hypersurface. The implications of their existence for the status of Birkhoff's…
Partial wave theory of a two dimensional scattering problem for an arbitray short range potential and a nonlocal Aharonov-Bohm magnetic flux is established. The scattering process of a ``hard disk'' like potential and the magnetic flux is…

Since gravitational waves are solutions of Einstein's field equations with a zero stress-energy tensor, the reality of these waves was questioned. To demonstrate it, the momentum imparted to test particles by such waves was evaluated. A…
