We define scattering data for the Newton equation in a potential $V\in C^2(\R^n,\R)$, $n\ge2$, that decays at infinity like $r^{-\alpha}$ for some $\alpha\in (0,1]$. We provide estimates on the scattering solutions and scattering data and…
This paper is concerned with the inverse problem to recover a compactly supported Schr{\"o}dinger potential given the differential scattering cross section, i.e. the modulus, but not the phase of the scattering amplitude. To compensate for…
Scattering equations for tree-level amplitudes are viewed in the context of string theory. As a result of the comparison we are led to define a new dual model which coincides with string theory in both the small and large $\alpha'$ limit,…
