AbstractGeneralizations of the Green-Lanford-Dollard theorem on scattering into cones and Ruelle-Amerin-Georgescu theorem characterizing bound states and scattering states are derived. The first is shown to be an easy consequence of the Kato-Trotter theorem on semi-group convergence whilst the latter is corollary of Wiener's version of the mean ergodic theorem.

We study the scattering theory for a class of non-relativistic quantum field theory models describing a confined non-relativistic atom interacting with a massless relativistic bosonic field. We construct invariant spaces [Formula: see text] which are defined in terms of propagation properties for large times and which consist of states containing a finite number of bosons in the region {|x| ≥ ct} for t → ±∞. We show the existence of asymptotic fields and we prove that the associated asymptotic CCR representations preserve the spaces [Formula: see text] and induce on these spaces representations of Fock type. For these induced representations, we prove the property of geometric asymptotic completeness, which gives a characterization of the vacuum states in terms of propagation properties. Finally we show that a positive commutator estimate imply the asymptotic completeness property, i.e. the fact that the vacuum states of the induced representations coincide with the bound states of the Hamiltonian.

AbstractThe Yang-Baxter-like matrix equation AXA = XAX is reconsidered, where A is any complex square matrix. A collection of spectral solutions for the unknown square matrix X were previously found. When A is diagonalisable, by applying the mean ergodic theorem we propose numerical methods to calculate those solutions.

We give a full and self contained account of the basic results in N-body scattering theory which emerged over the last ten years: The existence and completeness of scattering states for potentials decreasing like r-μ, [Formula: see text]. Our approach is a synthesis of earlier work and of new ideas. Global conditions on the potentials are imposed only to define the dynamics. Asymptotic completeness is derived from the fact that the mean square diameter of the system diverges like t2 as t → ±∞ for any orbit ψt which is separated in energy from thresholds and eigenvalues (a generalized version of Mourre's theorem involving only the tails of the potentials at large distances). We introduce new propagation observables which considerably simplify the phase–space analysis. As a topic of general interest we describe a method of commutator expansions.
