We consider scattering of a free quantum particle on a singular potential with rather arbitrary shape of the support of the potential. In the classical limit $\hbar=0$ this problem reduces to the well known problem of chaotic scattering.…

It is shown that the scattering S-matrix is unitary even if the scattering potential U(x) tends to different limits at plus and minus infinity. This result is in contrast to the statements of some authors which argue that the different…
We present an exact solution to the one-dimensional (1-D) scattering-from-a-barrier problem for an incident neutron described by a wave packet. As an aid to presenting our approach, we spend some time on a basic review of how wave packets…
It is shown that the potential perturbation that shifts a chosen standing wave in space is a block of potential barrier and well for every wave bump between neighbouring knots. The algorithms shifting the range of the primary localization…
In the context of one-dimensional diffusions, we present basic estimates (having the same lower and upper bounds with a factor of 4 only) for four Poincar\'e-type (or Hardy-type) inequalities. The derivation of two estimates have been open…
We formulate a general set of consistency requirements, which are expected to be satisfied by the scattering matrices in the presence of reflecting boundaries. In particular we derive an equivalent to the boostrap equation involving the…
The chaotic scattering theory is here extended to obtain escape-rate expressions for the transport coefficients appropriate for a simple classical fluid, or for a chemically reacting system. This theory allows various transport coefficients…
Scattering on a resonance state coupled to a complicated background is a typical problem for mesoscopic quantum many-body systems as well as for wave propagation in the presence of a complex environment. On average, such a simple mode…
We extend a result on dispersion for solutions of the linear Schr\"odinger equation, proved by Firsova for operators with finitely many energy bands only, to the case of smooth potentials in 1D with infinitely many bands. The proof consists…
The quantum scattering by smooth bodies is considered for small and large values of $kd$, with $k$ the wavenumber and $d$ the scale of the body. In both regimes, we prove that the forward scattering exceeds the backscattering. For high $k$,…
