Abstract

UDC 517.983, 517.984

We study the resolvents and scattering matrices for the following pairs of unbounded self-adjoint operators in $\mathbb{L}_{2}(\mathbf{R}_{3})$: the standard Laplace operator $A$ and its self-adjoint perturbation, which rigorously realizes the formal sum of $A$ with linear combinations of infinitely many zero-range potentials. By using Krein’s resolvent formula for the perturbed operator, we establish sufficient conditions for the resolvent difference of the analyzed pair of operators to be a nuclear operator. Under these conditions, we deduce and analyze an explicit formula for the corresponding scattering matrices.
