Free channel Fourier transform in the long-range \(N\)-body problem (Q1899791)

Free channel generalized eigenfunctions are constructed using the Green's function, similarly as in the two-body problem. The authors' method allows to prove smoothness of the momenta as well as to describe the growth properties in configuration space of the generalized eigenfunctions. The authors actually span the free channel and identify the distorted Fourier transform. Finally, a class of long-range \(N\)-body operators with two-body potentials decaying faster than \(r^{-\varepsilon}\) for some \(\varepsilon > 0\) is considered.
