We consider scattering of a free quantum particle on a singular potential with rather arbitrary shape of the support of the potential. In the classical limit $\hbar=0$ this problem reduces to the well known problem of chaotic scattering.…
We consider a dual $S$-matrix Bootstrap approach in $d\geq 3$ space-time dimensions which relies solely on the rigorously proven analyticity, crossing, and unitarity properties of the scattering amplitudes. As a proof of principle, we…
We formulate an S-matrix theory in which localisation effects of the particle interactions involved in a scattering process are consistently taken into account. In the limit of an infinite spread of all interactions, the S-matrix assumes…
