Abstract: We consider the scattering theory for the Schrodinger equation with −Delta−|x|alpha as a reference Hamiltonian, for 0<alphaleq2, in any space dimension. We prove that when this Hamiltonian is perturbed by a potential, the usual short range/long range condition is weakened: the limiting decay for the potential depends on the value of alpha, and is related to the growth of classical trajectories in the unperturbed case. The existence of wave operators and their asymptotic completeness are established thanks to Mourre estimates relying on new conjugate operators. We construct the asymptotic velocity and describe its spectrum. Some results are generalized to the case where −|x|alpha is replaced by a general second order polynomial.


The authors consider the scattering theory for the Hamiltonian \(-\Delta-| x| ^{\alpha}-V_{\alpha}\) in \({\mathbb R}^ n,\) where \(\alpha\in(0,2],\) \(n\geq 1,\) and \(V_{\alpha}\) is a certain perturbation potential depending on the value of \(\alpha.\) The existence of Møller wave operators and their asymptotic completeness are established with the help of some Mourre estimates. The authors also define a quantity called the asymptotic velocity and analyze its spectrum. This technical paper contains the proofs of the results announced in the authors' earlier paper [C. R. Math. Acad. Sci., Paris 338, No. 6, 453--456 (2004; Zbl 1047.35115)].
