Abstract

We consider perturbations of a stratified medium ℝ x n - 1 × ℝ y , where the operator studied is c 2 ( x , y ) Δ . The function c is a perturbation of c 0 ( y ) , which is constant for sufficiently large | y | and satisfies some other conditions. Under certain restrictions on the perturbation c , we give results on the Fourier integral operator structure of the scattering matrix. Moreover, we show that we can recover the asymptotic expansion at infinity of c from knowledge of c 0 and the singularities of the scattering matrix at fixed energy.
