Lower bounds on the number of scattering poles. (English) Zbl 0784.35070
The authors provide several examples for which they can give lower bounds on the number of scattering poles inside a ball of radius $$R$$, with $$R$$ large enough. Their examples include scattering by obstacles, perturbations of the Euclidean metric, and hyperbolic manifolds. In each case, they obtain a lower bound growing polynomially as $$R$$ tends to infinity.
