Abstract

Complex scaling and some of its variants are reviewed. Bounds on resonances (energy and lifetimes) are derived by combining the complex scaling methods with a variational principle for the multiplicity of eigenvalues and a generalization of Rouché's theorem for meromorphic functions with values in some trace ideal. — The method is illustrated with a particular simple example, a particle in a well.
