We present a systematic formulation of scattering theory for nonlinear interactions in one dimension and develop a nonlinear generalization of the transfer matrix that has a composition property similar to its linear analog's. We offer…

I present a review of the recent advancements in scattering theory, which provides a unified approach to studying dispersive and hyperbolic equations with general interaction terms and data. These equations encompass time-dependent…

Multi-dimensional complex optical potentials with partial parity-time (PT) symmetry are proposed. The usual PT symmetry requires that the potential is invariant under complex conjugation and simultaneous reflection in all spatial…

Within the framework of the recently proposed formalism using non-hermitean Hamiltonians constrained merely by their PT invariance we describe a new exactly solvable family of the harmonic-oscillator-like potentials with non-equidistant…

A one-dimensional generalized nonlinear Schroedinger equation is considered, and the corresponding inverse scattering problem is analyzed when the potential is compactly supported and depends on the wave function. The unique recovery of the…

We consider a system realized with one spinless quantum particle and an array of $N$ spins 1/2 in dimension one and three. We characterize all the Hamiltonians obtained as point perturbations of an assigned free dynamics in terms of some…

In this letter, we study the scattering of spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ particles from a spin-independent parity time ($\cal PT$)-symmetric complex potential, and for the first time, theoretically demonstrate the coexistence of $\cal PT$-symmetric…

Potential scattering problems governed by the time-dependent Gross-Pitaevskii equation are investigated numerically for various values of coupling constants. The initial condition is assumed to have the Gaussian-type envelope, which differs…

We investigate the scattering response of parity-time (PT) symmetric structures. We show that, due to the local flow of energy between gain and loss regions, such systems can deflect light in unusual ways, as a function of the gain/loss…

We highlight the conceptual issues that arise when one applies the quasi-Hermitian framework to analyze scattering from localized non-Hermitian potentials, in particular complex square-wells or delta-functions. When treated in the framework…

We study extensions of N-wave systems with PT-symmetry. The types of (nonlocal) reductions leading to integrable equations invariant with respect to P- (spatial reflection) and T- (time reversal) symmetries is described. The corresponding…

Complex, non-Hermitian potentials V(x) can often generate standard quantum bound states. H. F. Jones [Phys. Rev. D 78, 065032 (2008)] demonstrated that the idea cannot directly be transferred to scattering. We reveal that a return to the…

The scattering of surface plasmons polaritons by a one-dimensional defect of the surface is theoretically studied, by means of both Rayleigh and modal expansions. The considered defects are either relief perturbations or variations in the…

Diffusion of electrons in a two-dimensional system with time-dependent random potentials is investigated numerically. In the absence of spin-orbit scattering, the conductivity shows universal weak localization correction. In the presence of…

We point out little discussed phenomenon in elementary quantum mechanics. In one-dimensional potential scattering problems, the scattering amplitudes are not uniquely determined at special points in parameter space. We examine a few…

In the context of the recent interest in solvable models of scattering mediated by non-Hermitian Hamiltonians (cf. H. F. Jones, Phys. Rev. D 76, 125003 (2007)) we show that and how the well known variability of our ad hoc choice of the…

Conventionally, factorized scattering in two dimensions is argued to be a consequence of the conservation of local higher charges. However, integrability may well be realized via nonlocal charges, while higher local charges are not known.…

We identify a class of potentials for which the scattering of flat-top solitons and thin-top solitons of the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation with dual nonlinearity can be reflectionless. The scattering is characterized by sharp resonances…

We study the scattering of solitons in the nonlinear Schroedinger equation on local inhomogeneities which may give rise to resonant transmission and reflection. In both cases, we derive resonance conditions for the soliton's velocity. The…

Transmission probabilities of the scattering problem with a position dependent mass are studied. After sketching the basis of the theory, within the context of the Schr\"{o}dinger equation for spatially varying effective mass, the simplest…
