Inverse Scattering on Asymptotically Hyperbolic Manifolds
نویسنده
چکیده
Scattering is deened on compact manifolds with boundary which are equipped with an asymptotically hyperbolic metric, g: A model form is established for such metrics close to the boundary. It is shown that the scattering matrix at energy exists and is a pseudo-diierential operator of order 2 + 1 ? dim X: The symbol of the scattering matrix is then used to show that except for a discrete set of energies the scattering matrix at one energy determines the diieomorphism class of the metric modulo terms vanishing to innnite order at the boundary. An analogous result is proved for potential scattering. The total symbol is computed when the manifold is hyperbolic or is of product type modulo terms vanishing to innnite order at the boundary. The same methods are then applied to studying inverse scattering on the Schwarzschild and De Sitter-Schwarzschild models of black holes.

In analogy with radiation fields for asymptotically Euclidean manifolds, introduced by F.G. Friedlander, we define radiation fields for asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds. We use them to give a translation representation of the wave group and to obtain the scattering matrix for such manifolds. Furthermore, we prove a support theorem for the radiation fields which generalizes to this setting th...
متن کاملRadiation Fields, Scattering and Inverse Scattering on Asymptotically Hyperbolic Manifolds
We define the forward and backward radiation fields on an asymptotically hyperbolic manifold and show that they give unitary translation representations of the wave group, and as such can be used to define a scattering matrix. We show that this scattering matrix is equivalent to the one defined by stationary methods. Furthermore, we prove a support theorem for the radiation fields which general...
متن کاملInsufficient Convergence of Inverse Mean Curvature Flow on Asymptotically Hyperbolic Manifolds
We construct a solution to inverse mean curvature flow on an asymptotically hyperbolic 3-manifold which does not have the convergence properties needed in order to prove a Penrose–type inequality. This contrasts sharply with the asymptotically flat case. The main idea consists in combining inverse mean curvature flow with work done by Shi–Tam regarding boundary behavior of compact manifolds. As...
متن کاملEquipartition of Energy in Geometric Scattering Theory
In this note, we use an elementary argument to show that the existence and unitarity of radiation fields implies asymptotic partition of energy for the corresponding wave equation. This argument establishes the equipartition of energy for the wave equation on scattering manifolds, asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds, asymptotically complex hyperbolic manifolds, and the Schwarzschild spacetime. ...
متن کاملScattering Poles for Asymptotically Hyperbolic Manifolds
Scattering poles for a convex obstacle in the Euclidean space have been extensively studied starting with the work of Watson ’18, with more recent results by Hargé–Lebeau ’94 , Sjöstrand–Zworski ’99 and Jin ’15. In contrast, practically nothing is known for the same problem in hyperbolic space. I will explain the difficulties involved in that and use them as a platform to present a modified ver...
