Stability of Inverse Resonance Problem on the Half Line

Abstract: We consider the inverse resonance problem in one-dimensional scattering theory. The scattering matrix consists of $2\times 2$ entries of meromorphic functions, which are quotients of certain Fourier transform. The resonances are expressed as the zeros of Fourier transform of wave field. For compactly-supported perturbation, we are able to quantitatively estimate the zeros and poles of each meromorphic entry. The size of potential support is connected to the zero distribution of scattered wave field. We derive the inverse stability on scattering source based on certain knowledge on the perturbation theory of resonances. When the resonances are distributed regularly, there is certain natural stability through the value distribution theory.
