Low-energy scattering is well described by the effective-range expansion. In quantum mechanics, a tower of contact interactions can generate terms in this expansion after renormalization. Scattering parameters are also encoded in the…
We examine the bound state and scattering problem of a spin-one-half particle undergone to an Aharonov-Bohm potential in a conical space in the nonrelativistic limit. The crucial problem of the \delta-function singularity coming from the…
In two and three dimensions, the standard treatment of the scattering problem for a multi-delta-function potential, $v(\mathbf{r})=\sum_{n=1}^N\mathfrak{z}_n\delta(\mathbf{r}-\mathbf{a}_n)$, leads to divergent terms. Regularization of these…
One-dimensional scattering by a Coulomb potential V(x)=lambda/|x| is studied for both repulsive (c>0) and attractive (c<0) cases. Two methods of regularizing the singularity at x=0 are used, yielding the same conclusion, namely, that the…
We study the relativistic version of Schr\"odinger equation for a point particle in 1-d with potential of the first derivative of the delta function. The momentum cutoff regularization is used to study the bound state and scattering states.…
Interaction of waves with point and line defects are usually described by $\delta$-function potentials supported on points or lines. In two dimensions, the scattering problem for a finite collection of point defects or parallel line defects…
Singular potentials (the inverse-square potential, for example) arise in many situations and their quantum treatment leads to well-known ambiguities in choosing boundary conditions for the wave-function at the position of the potential's…
In this paper, we consider the one-dimensional semirelativistic Schr\"{o}dinger equation for a particle interacting with $N$ Dirac delta potentials. Using the heat kernel techniques, we establish a resolvent formula in terms of an $N \times…
The spin-1/2 Aharonov-Bohm problem is examined in the Galilean limit for the case in which a Coulomb potential is included. It is found that the application of the self-adjoint extension method to this system yields singular solutions only…
Scattering on the ${\cal PT}$-symmetric Coulomb potential is studied along a U-shaped trajectory circumventing the origin in the complex $x$ plane from below. This trajectory reflects ${\cal PT}$ symmetry, sets the appropriate boundary…
Exact solutions of the Schr\"odinger equation for the Coulomb potential are used in the scope of both stationary and time-dependent scattering theories in order to find the parameters which define regularization of the Rutherford…
In this paper we suggest a new approach for the multichannel Coulomb scattering problem. The Schr\"{o}dinger equation for the problem is reformulated in the form of a set of inhomogeneous equations with a finite-range driving term. The…
We consider the scattering theory for the Schrodinger equation with $-\Delta -|x|^{\alpha}$ as a reference Hamiltonian, for $0< \alpha \leq 2$, in any space dimension. We prove that when this Hamiltonian is perturbed by a potential, the…
The authors consider a scattering problem for electric potentials that have a component which is critically singular in the sense of Lebesgue spaces, and a component given by a measure supported on a compact Lipschitz hypersurface. They…
In this work, we review two methods used to approach singular Hamiltonians in (2+1) dimensions. Both methods are based on the self-adjoint extension approach. It is very common to find singular Hamiltonians in quantum mechanics, especially…

In this paper, we present a mathematically rigorous quantum-mechanical treatment of a one-dimensional motion of a particle in the Calogero potential $\alpha x^{-2}$. Although the problem is quite old and well-studied, we believe that our…
We consider the solution of the quantum Coulomb problem in one dimension with the most general connection condition at the origin. The divergence of the derivative of the wave function at the origin invalidates the standard current…
In the paper, in the scattering problem for the valence electron model potential a self-adjoint extension is performed and Rutherford formula is modified. The scattering of slow particles for this potential is also discussed and the changes…
We analyze how a short distance boundary condition for the Schrodinger equation must change as a function of the boundary radius by imposing the physical requirement of phase shift independence on the boundary condition. The resulting…
