We derive the $\mathcal{T}$-matrix formalism tailored for numerical analysis of second-harmonic (SH) generation from arbitrarily shaped particles made of centrosymmetric optical materials. First, the transfer matrix of a single particle is…
As a prototype of an evolution equation we consider the Schr\"odinger equation i (d/dt) \Psi(t) = H \Psi(t), H = H_0 + V(x) for the Hilbert space valued function \Psi(.) which describes the state of the system at time t in space dimension…
We develop the spectral and scattering theory for self-adjoint Hankel operators $H$ with piecewise continuous symbols. In this case every jump of the symbol gives rise to a band of the absolutely continuous spectrum of $H$. We construct…
In the framework of one dimensional potential scattering we prove that, modulo a compact term, the wave operators can be written in terms of a universal operator and of the scattering operator. The universal operator is related to the one…

Two port s-matrix for a complex PT-symmetric potential may have uni-modular eigenvalues. If this happens for all energies, there occurs a perfect emission of waves at both ends. We call this phenomenon transparency which is distinctly…
We demonstrate that the use of on-shell methods, involving calculation of the discontinuity across the t-channel cut associated with the exchange of a pair of massless particles, can be used to evaluate loop contributions to both the…
This paper constructs translation invariant operators on L2(R^d), which are Lipschitz continuous to the action of diffeomorphisms. A scattering propagator is a path ordered product of non-linear and non-commuting operators, each of which…
Background: Path integrals are a powerful tool for solving problems in quantum theory that are not amenable to a treatment by perturbation theory. Most path integral computations require an analytic continuation to imaginary time. While…
We discuss a few integral operators and provide expressions for them in terms of smooth functions of some natural self-adjoint operators. These operators appear in the context of scattering theory, but are independent of any perturbation…
We extend the notion of the transfer matrix of potential scattering to a large class of long-range potentials $v(x)$ and derive its basic properties. We outline a dynamical formulation of the time-independent scattering theory for this…
Predicting the optical response of macroscopic arrangements of individual scatterers is a computational challenge, as the problem involves length scales across multiple orders of magnitude. We present a full-wave optical method to highly…
We consider the scattering theory for discrete Schr\"odinger operators on $Z^d$ with long-range potentials. We prove the existence of modified wave operators constructed in terms of solutions of a Hamilton-Jacobi equation on the torus…
Using a generalized T-matrix description which, in principle, exactly includes Coulomb correlations and potential scattering events, resonant and bound impurity states are discussed. Like in the non-interacting case, the effects of the…
