Abstract: We study the resonances of Schr"odinger operators on the infinite product X=mathbbRdimesmathbbS1, where d is odd, mathbbS1 is the unit circle, and the potential VinLinftyc(X). This paper shows that at high energy, resonances of the Schr"odinger operator −Delta+V on X=mathbbRdimesmathbbS1 which are near the continuous spectrum are approximated by the resonances of −Delta+V0 on X, where the potential V0 given by averaging V over the unit circle. These resonances are, in turn, given in terms of the resonances of a Schr"odinger operator on mathbbRd which lie in a bounded set. If the potential is smooth, we obtain improved localization of the resonances, particularly in the case of simple, rank one poles of the corresponding scattering resolvent on mathbbRd. In that case, we obtain the leading order correction for the location of the corresponding high energy resonances. In addition to direct results about the location of resonances, we show that at high energies away from the resonances, the resolvent of the model operator −Delta+V0 on X approximates that of −Delta+V on X. If d=1, in certain cases this implies the existence of an asymptotic expansion of solutions of the wave equation. Again for the special case of d=1, we obtain a resonant rigidity type result for the zero potential among all real-valued potentials.


The paper investigates Schrödinger operators \(-\Delta+V\) on infinite cylinders \(\mathbb{R}^d\times \mathbb{S}^1\) with \(d\) odd and \(\mathbb{S}^1\) the unit circle in \(\mathbb{R}^2\), where \(V\) is a bounded and compactly supported potential. The key object of investigation are resonances, i.e., poles of the resolvent of the Schrödinger operator. Under suitable decay properties of the Fourier coefficients of \(V\) w.r.t. the second component, high energy resonances can be well approximated by those of the Schrödinger operator \(-\Delta+V_0\), where \(V_0\) is the potential being averaged over the unit circle (i.e., the \(0\)-th Fourier coefficient). Smoothness of the potential \(V\) improves the localisation of the resonances. If \(d=1\), asymptotic expansions of the resonances are given.
