We consider a cable described by a discrete, space-homogeneous, quasi one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operator $H_0$. We study the scattering by a finite disordered piece (the scatterer) inserted inside this cable. For energies $E$ where…

An operator $H=H_{0}+V$ where $H_{0}=i^{-N} \partial^{N}$ ($N$ is arbitrary) and $V$ is a differential operator of order $N-1$ with coefficients decaying sufficiently rapidly at infinity is considered in the space $L^2(\Bbb R)$. The goal of…
We study an inverse scattering problem for a pair of Hamiltonians $(H(h), H\_0 (h))$ on $L^2 (\r^n)$, where $H\_0 (h) = -h^2 \Delta$ and $H (h)= H\_0 (h) +V$, $V$ is a short-range potential with a regular behaviour at infinity and $h$ is…
We study scattering for the couple $(A_{F},A_{0})$ of Schr\"odinger operators in $L^2(\mathbb{R}^3)$ formally defined as $A_0 = -\Delta + \alpha\, \delta_{\pi_0}$ and $A_F = -\Delta + \alpha\, \delta_{\pi_F}$, $\alpha >0$, where…
We study the scattering problem for the Schr\"odinger equation on the half-line with Robin boundary condition at the origin. We derive an expression for the trace of the difference of the perturbed and unperturbed resolvent in terms of a…
We present a general account on the stationary scattering theory for unitary operators in a two-Hilbert spaces setting. For unitary operators $U_0,U$ in Hilbert spaces ${\cal H}_0,{\cal H}$ and for an identification operator $J:{\cal…
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…

A waveguide G lies in the (n+1)-dimensional Euclidean space for positive integer n, and outside a large ball coincides with the union of finitely many non-overlapping semi-cylinders ("cylindrical ends"). The waveguide is described by the…
