Geometry and Topology of Wave Scattering
Dr. Alexander Strohmaier (Loughborough)
11 Jan 2011, 17:30 – 18:30

I will give a short introduction into scattering theory of classical and quantum waves and its precise mathematical description. I will then explain how geometry and topology can be used to describe scattering at low energies in waveguides and structures that are effectively manifolds with cylindrical ends.
I willl present a topological interpretation of the so-called
scattering length and estimates of it in terms of quantities
from geometric measure theory.
