For an operator-valued block-matrix model, which is called in quantum physics a Feshbach decomposition, a scattering theory is considered. Under trace class perturbation the channel scattering matrices are calculated. Using Feshbach's optical potential it is shown that for a given spectral parameter the channel scattering matrices can be recovered either from a dissipative or from a Lax-Phillips scattering theory.
The paper is devoted to Schroedinger operators on bounded intervals of the real axis with dissipative boundary conditions. In the framework of the Lax-Phillips scattering theory the asymptotic behaviour of the phase shift is investigated in detail and its relation to the spectral shift is discussed, in particular, trace formula and Birman-Krein formula are verified directly. The results are used for dissipative Schroedinger-Poisson systems.
We describe an embedding of a quantum mechanically described structure into a macroscopic flow. The open quantum system is partly driven by an adjacent macroscopic flow acting on the boundary of the bounded spatial domain designated to quantum mechanics. This leads to an essentially non-selfadjoint Schroedinger-type operator, the spectral properties of which will be investigated.
We study in detail Schroedinger-type operators on a bounded interval of the real axis with dissipative boundary conditions. The characteristic function of such operators is computed, its minimal self-adjoint dilation is constructed and the generalized eigenfunction expansion for the dilation is developed. The problem is motivated by semiconductor physics.
Non-selfadjoint operators play an important role in the modeling of open quantum systems. We consider a one-dimensional Schroedinger-type operator with dissipative boundary conditions and dissipative delta potentials. An explicit description of the characteristic function, the minimal dilation and the generalized eigenfunctions of the dilation is given. The quantities of carrier and current densities are rigorously defined. Furthermore we will show that the current is not constant and that the variation of the current depend essentially on the chosen density matrix and imaginary parts of the delta potentials. This correspondence can be used to model a recombination-generation rate in the open quantum system.
