The property that a Jacobi matrix is reflectionless is usually characterized either in terms of Weyl m-functions or the vanishing of the real part of the boundary values of the diagonal matrix elements of the resolvent. We introduce a characterization in terms of stationary scattering theory (the vanishing of the reflection coefficients) and prove that this characterization is equivalent to the usual ones. We also show that the new characterization is equivalent to the notion of being…

Reflectionless CMV Matrices and Scattering Theory

Reflectionless CMV matrices are studied using scattering theory. By changing a single Verblunsky coefficient, a full-line CMV matrix can be decoupled and written as the sum of two half-line…

Reflection Probabilities of One-Dimensional Schrödinger Operators and Scattering Theory

The dynamic reflection probability of Davies and Simon (Commun Math Phys 63(3):277–301, 1978) and the spectral reflection probability of Gesztesy et al. (Diff Integral Eqs 10(3):521–546, 1997) and…

Equality of the Spectral and Dynamical Definitions of Reflection

For full-line Jacobi matrices, Schrödinger operators, and CMV matrices, we show that being reflectionless, in the sense of the well-known property of m-functions, is equivalent to a lack of…
