We prove that if a Riemannian covering preserves the bottom of the spectrum of a Schr\"{o}dinger operator, which belongs to the discrete spectrum of the operator on the base manifold, then the covering is amenable.
Quantum systems which interact with their environment are often modeled by maximal dissipative operators or so-called Pseudo-Hamiltonians. In this paper the scattering theory for such open systems is considered. First it is assumed that a…
We consider discrete Schr\"odinger operators with real periodic potentials on periodic graphs. The spectra of the operators consist of a finite number of bands. By "rolling up" a periodic graph along some appropriate directions we obtain…
We consider a quantum system S interacting with another system S and susceptible of being absorbed by S. The effective, dissipative dynamics of S is supposed to be generated by an abstract pseudo-Hamiltonian of the form H = H0 + V -- iC *…
Although many physical arguments account for using a modified definition of time delay in multichannel-type scattering processes, one can hardly find rigorous results on that issue in the literature. We try to fill in this gap by showing,…

We study the spectrum, resonances and scattering matrix of a quantum hamiltonian on a "hybrid surface" consisting of a half-line attached by its endpoint to the vertex of a concave planar wedge. At the boundary of the wedge, outside the…
We prove existence results and lower bounds for the resonances of Schr\"odinger operators associated to smooth, compactly support potentials on hyperbolic space. The results are derived from a combination of heat and wave trace expansions…
We show that for a one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operator with a potential whose (j+1)'th moment is integrable the j'th derivative of the scattering matrix is in the Wiener algebra of functions with integrable Fourier transforms. We use…
In this article we formulate and discuss one particle quantum scattering theory on an arbitrary finite graph with $n$ open ends and where we define the Hamiltonian to be (minus) the Laplace operator with general boundary conditions at the…
We consider the cubic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation posed on the spatial domain $\mathbb{R}\times \mathbb{T}^d$. We prove modified scattering and construct modified wave operators for small initial and final data respectively ($1\leq…
We study multistate Schr\"odinger operators related to molecular dynamics. We consider potentials which do not necessarily decay and prove absence of the singular continuous spectrum and propagation estimates which mean the scattering at…

We develop a complete stationary scattering theory for Schr\"odinger operators on $\mathbb R^d$, $d\ge 2$, with $C^2$ long-range potentials. This extends former results in the literature, in particular [Is1, Is2, II, GY], which all require…
