Spectral duality for planar billiards

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: For a bounded open domain Omega with connected complement in and piecewise smooth boundary, we consider the Dirichlet Laplacian −DeltaOmega on Omega and the S-matrix on the complement Omegac. We show that the on-shell S-matrices have eigenvalues converging to 1 as kuparrowk0 exactly when −DeltaOmega has an eigenvalue at energy k02. This includes multiplicities, and proves a weak form of ``transparency at k=k0. We also show that stronger forms of transparency, such as having an eigenvalue 1 are not expected to hold in general.
