Review text

The boundary-value problem with two real parameters \(\lambda\) and \(\mu\) for the Dirac equation \[ \begin{matrix} (\mathcal{D}+V)w(x)-\lambda w(x)=f(x),\quad x\in\Omega\subset R^3,\quad \mathcal{D}=\sum\limits_1^3\alpha_jD_j+\beta\\ Bu:=i\sigma(\nu(x))v^+(x)-\mu u^+(x)-g(x),\qquad x\in\Gamma=\partial\Omega \end{matrix} \] is considered. Here \(D_j=-i\partial_j,\) \(w=\left(\begin{matrix} u\\ v\end{matrix}\right),\) \(\alpha_j=\left(\begin{matrix} 0 & \sigma_j\\ \sigma_j & 0\end{matrix}\right)\) are Hermitian \((4\times 4)\)-matrices, \(\sigma_j\) are the Pauli matrices, \(\beta=\alpha_4\) is the diagonal \((4\times 4)\)-matrix with the main diagonal \((1, 1, -1, -1)\), \(u^+(x)=u(x)|_\Gamma\) , \(V(x)\) is a Hermitian potential, which may have a Coulomb-like singularity. Let the values of the parameters \(\lambda\) and \(\mu\) be such that the problem has a unique solution and let \(f=0\). The problem consists in the finding \(u^+\) in terms of \(g\). The \(R\)-matrix is the operator mapping \(g\) to \(u^+\). Two approaches to the \(R\)-matrix construction are stated at \(f=0\), \(g=0\): (I) The problem with \(\lambda\) as a spectral parameter and fixed \(\mu\). (II) The problem with \(\mu\) as a spectral parameter and fixed \(\lambda\). The authors investigate spectral properties of both problems and use them for the \(R\)-matrix construction.
