We suppose that $H$ is of the form $H=H_0+CWC$ where $C$ is a bounded metric operator, relatively compact with respect to $H_0$, and $W$ is bounded. We suppose that $C(H_0-z)^{-1}C$ is uniformly bounded in $z\\in\\mathbb{C}\\setminus\\mathbb{R}$. We define the regularized wave operators associated to $H$ and $H_0$ by $W_\\pm(H,H_0) := \\displaystyle\\mathrm{slim}_{t\\rightarrow\\infty} e^{\\pm itH}r_\\mp(H)\\Pi_\\mathrm{p}(H^\\star)^\\perp e^{\\mp itH_0}$ where $\\Pi_\\mathrm{p}(H^\\star)$ is the projection onto the direct sum of all the generalized eigenspace associated to eigenvalue of $H^\\star$ and $r_\\mp$ is a rational function that regularizes the `incoming/outgoing spectral singularities' of $H$. We prove the existence and study the properties of the regularized wave operators. In particular we show that they are asymptotically complete if $H$ does not have any spectral singularity.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-02-15T08:29:10.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "non-self-adjoint operators", "scattering theory", "regularized wave operators", "spectral singularity", "incoming/outgoing spectral singularities" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 33, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
