Аннотация:
The scattering of plane waves and of point source pulses by irregularities in a discrete lattice model of the Schrödinger equation is considered. Closed form expressions are derived for the scattered wave function in terms of lattice Green's functions in the case that a finite number of lattice points or bonds are defective. The scattered wave function appears in the form of the ratio of two determinants. While in continuum scattering theory the scatterer must have some symmetry, perhaps spherical, cylindrical or elliptical, in order to allow separation of variables in the basic scattering differential equation, such symmetries are not necessary for the construction of scattered wave functions on discrete lattices. When the number of irregularities becomes large, the determinants in the solution of the scattering problem become large.
