Abstract

We consider the scattering problem for a class of strongly singular Schrödinger operators in \(L^2({\mathbb R}^3)\) which can be formally written as \(H_{\alpha ,\varGamma }= -\varDelta + \delta _\alpha (x-\varGamma )\), where \(\alpha \in {\mathbb R}\) is the coupling parameter and \(\varGamma \) is an infinite curve which is a local smooth deformation of a straight line \(\varSigma \subset {\mathbb R}^3\). Using Kato–Birman method, we prove that the wave operators \(\varOmega _\pm (H_{\alpha ,\varGamma }, H_{\alpha ,\varSigma })\) exist and are complete.
