Review text

The generalized Schrödinger equation \[ d^2 \psi/dx^2 +k^2 \psi= \bigl[ik P(x)+ Q(x)\bigr] \psi \] is considered, where \(P(x)\) and \(Q(x)\) are real, integrable potentials with finite first moments. Scattering solutions and bound state solutions are studied, the scattering coefficients and their small-\(k\) and large-\(k\) asymptotics are analyzed. Unless \(P(x) \leq 0\), it is shown that there may be bound states at complex energies, degenerate bound states, and singularities of the transmission coefficient for real \(k\). Some illustrative examples are provided. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0890.00039].
