Wave Equation and Causality Violation
2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: Primary: 34L25; secondary: 47A40, 81Q10.In this article we prove that the wave operators describing the direct scattering of the defocusing matrix Zakharov-Shabat system with potentials having distinct nonzero values with the same modulus at ± ∞ exist, are asymptotically complete, and lead to a unitary scattering operator. We also prove that the free Hamiltonian operator is absolutely continuous.
We consider an effective model of nuclear matter including spin and isospin degrees of freedom, described by an -body Hamiltonian with suitably renormalized two-body and three-body interaction potentials. We show that the corresponding mean-field theory (the time-dependent Hartree-Fock approximation) is “exact” as tends to infinity.
