A general problem of $2\rightarrow N_f$ scattering is addressed with all the states being wave packets with arbitrary phases. Depending on these phases, one deals with coherent states in $(3+1)$ D, vortex particles with orbital angular…

A pair of scattering potentials are called $\alpha$-equivalent if they have identical scattering properties for incident plane waves with wavenumber $k\leq\alpha$ (energy $k^2\leq\alpha^2$.) We use a recently developed multidimensional…
The Levinson theorem for two-dimensional scattering is generalized for potentials with inverse square singularities. By this theorem, the number of bound states in a given m-th partial wave is related to the phase shift and the singularity…

Given the abstract wave equation $\ddot\phi-\Delta_\alpha\phi=0$, where $\Delta_\alpha$ is the Laplace operator with a point interaction of strength $\alpha$, we define and study $\bar W_\alpha$, the associated wave generator in the phase…
For a very large class of potentials, $V(\vec{x})$, $\vec{x}\in R^2$, we prove the universality of the low energy scattering amplitude, $f(\vec{k}', \vec{k})$. The result is $f=\sqrt{\frac{\pi}{2}}\{1/log k)+O(1/(log k)^2)$. The only…
We consider the scattering that is described by the equation $(-\Delta_x + q(x,\frac{x}{\epsilon}) - E)\psi= f(x), \psi = \psi(x,\epsilon) \in \C, x \in \R^d, \epsilon > 0, E > 0,$ where $q(x,y)$ is a periodic function of $y$, $q$ and $f$…
For a class of negative slowly decaying potentials, including $V(x):=-\gamma|x|^{-\mu}$ with $0<\mu<2$, we study the quantum mechanical scattering theory in the low-energy regime. Using modifiers of the Isozaki-Kitada type we show that…
We show that the delta function potential can be exploited along with perturbation theory to yield the result of certain infinite series. The idea is that any exactly soluble potential if coupled with a delta function potential remains…
Let $f\in L^2(S^2)$ be an arbitrary fixed function with small norm on the unit sphere $S^2$, and $D\subset \R^3$ be an arbitrary fixed bounded domain. Let $k>0$ and $\alpha\in S^2$ be fixed. It is proved that there exists a potential $q\in…

Defining the observable ${\bf \phi}$ canonically conjugate to the number observable ${\bf N}$ has long been an open problem in quantum theory. Here we show how to define the absolute phase observable ${\bf \Phi}\equiv |{\bf\phi}|$ by…
We study the inverse scattering problem for electric potentials and magnetic fields in $\ere^d, d\geq 3$, that are asymptotic sums of homogeneous terms at infinity. The main result is that all these terms can be uniquely reconstructed from…
Semiclassical quantization is exact only for the so called \emph{solvable} potentials, such as the harmonic oscillator. In the \emph{nonsolvable} case the semiclassical phase, given by a series in $\hbar$, yields more or less approximate…
We propose a procedure based on phase equivalent chains of Darboux transformations to generate local potentials satisfying the radial Schr\"odinger equation and sharing the same scattering data. For potentials related by a chain of…
The scattering phase shift of an electron transferred through a quantum dot is studied within a model Hamiltonian, accounting for both the electron--electron interaction in the dot and a finite temperature. It is shown that, unlike in an…
