Existence of outgoing solutions for perturbations of and applications to the scattering matrix

Abstract

In this paper we shall prove an existence theorem and give applications of an outgoing solution of the following problem:where L(x, x) is a second order elliptic differential operator with a potential term q(x), is an exterior domain of ℝn (where n 2) with the C2-class boundary , k is an element of the complex plane or of a logarithmic Riemann surface, and B is either a Dirichlet boundary condition or of the form Bu = vj(x) ajk(x) ku + (x)u with the unit outer normal vector v(x) = (vl,, vn) at x.
