We study the scattering theory for charged Klein-Gordon equations: \[\{{array}{l} (\p_{t}- \i v(x))^{2}\phi(t,x) \epsilon^{2}(x, D_{x})\phi(t,x)=0,[2mm] \phi(0, x)= f_{0}, [2mm] \i^{-1} \p_{t}\phi(0, x)= f_{1}, {array}. \] where:…
We consider the massive Klein-Gordon equation on asymptotically Minkowski spacetimes, in the sense that the manifold is $R^{1+d}$ and the metric approaches that of Minkowski space at infinity in a short-range way (jointly in time and space…

The general idea of this paper is to start from a classical integrable (partial differential) equation which arises as a compatibility condition for a matrix linear differential problem. For definitiveness' sake, a generalised sinh-Gordon…
Let $A(t)$ be a continuous path of Fredhom operators, we first prove that the spectral flow $sf(A(t))$ is cogredient invariant. Based on this property, we give a decomposition formula of spectral flow if the path is invariant under a…

This paper explores the regularity properties of an inverse spectral transform for Hilbert--Schmidt Hankel operators on the unit disc. This spectral transform plays the role of action-angles variables for an integrable infinite dimensional…
In this paper, we study the real analyticity of the scattering operator for the Hartree equation $ i\partial_tu=-\Delta u+u(V*|u|^2)$. To this end, we exploit interior and exterior cut-off in time and space, and combining with the…
The purpose of this research is to propose a new approach named the shifted Bessel Tau (SBT) method for solving higher-order ordinary differential equations (ODE). The operational matrices of derivative, integral and product of shifted…
We establish the existence of Bogoliubov's local scattering operators for P(\phi)_2 models of constructive quantum field theory in a nonperturbative way. To this end, we use the technique of evolution semigroups to prove a new result on…
We study the Hankel determinant of the generalized Jacobi weight $(x-t)^{\gamma}x^\alpha(1-x)^\beta$ for $x\in[0,1]$ with $\alpha, \beta>0$, $t < 0 $ and $\gamma\in\mathbb{R}$. Based on the ladder operators for the corresponding monic…

We investigate the long-time asymptotic behavior of a class of solutions to the defocusing Manakov system under nonzero boundary conditions. These solutions are characterized by a $3 \times 3$ matrix Riemann Hilbert problem. We find that…
