We consider the Dirichlet Laplacian in a straight three dimensional waveguide with non-rotationally invariant cross section, perturbed by a twisting of small amplitude. It is well known that such a perturbation does not create eigenvalues below the essential spectrum. However, around the bottom of the spectrum, we provide a meromorphic extension of the weighted resolvent of the perturbed operator, and show the existence of exactly one resonance near this point. Moreover, we obtain the asymptotic behavior of this resonance as the size of the twisting goes to 0. We also extend the analysis to the upper eigenvalues of the transversal problem, showing that the number of resonances is bounded by the multiplicity of the eigenvalue and obtaining the corresponding asymptotic behavior
In this paper we consider embedded eigenvalues of a Schroedinger Hamiltonian in a waveguide induced by a symmetric perturbation. It is shown that these eigenvalues become unstable and turn into resonances after twisting of the waveguide. The perturbative expansion of the resonance width is calculated for weakly twisted waveguides and the influence of the twist on resonances in a concrete model is discussed in detail.
We show that twisting of an infinite straight three-dimensional tube with non-circular cross-section gives rise to a Hardy-type inequality for the associated Dirichlet Laplacian. As an application we prove certain stability of the spectrum of the Dirichlet Laplacian in locally and mildly bent tubes. Namely, it is known that any local bending, no matter how small, generates eigenvalues below the essential spectrum of the Laplacian in the tubes with arbitrary cross-sections rotated along a reference curve in an appropriate way. In the present paper we show that for any other rotation some critical strength of the bending is needed in order to induce a non-empty discrete spectrum.
We consider two-dimensional Schroedinger operators with an attractive potential in the form of a channel of a fixed profile built along an unbounded curve composed of a circular arc and two straight semi-lines. Using a test-function argument with help of parallel coordinates outside the cut-locus of the curve, we establish the existence of discrete eigenvalues. This is a special variant of a recent result of Exner in a non-smooth case and via a different technique which does not require non-positive constraining potentials.
We investigate the distribution of the resonances near spectral thresholds of Laplace operators on regular tree graphs with $k$-fold branching, $k geq 1$, perturbed by nonself-adjoint exponentially decaying potentials. We establish results on the absence of resonances which in particular involve absence of discrete spectrum near some sectors of the essential spectrum of the operators.
We consider inverse obstacle and transmission scattering problems where the source of the incident waves is located on a smooth closed surface that is a boundary of a domain located outside of the obstacle/inhomogeneity of the media. The domain can be arbitrarily small but fixed.The scattered waves are measured on the same surface. An effective procedure is suggested for recovery of interior eigenvalues by these data.
