Time-dependent methods in inverse scattering problems for the Hartree-Fock equation

Abstract: The inverse scattering theory for many-body systems in quantum mechanics is an important and difficult issue not only in physics---atomic physics, molecular physics and nuclear physics---but also mathematics. The major purpose in this paper is to establish a reconstruction procedure of two-body interactions from scattering solutions for a Hartree-Fock equation. More precisely, this paper gives a uniqueness theorem and proposes a new reconstruction procedure of the short-range and two-body interactions from a high-velocity limit of the scattering operator for the Hartree-Fock equation. Moreover, it will be found that the high-velocity limit of the scattering operator is equal to a small-amplitude limit of it. The main ingredients of mathematical analysis in this paper are based on the theory of integral equations of the first kind and a Strichartz type estimates on a solution to the free Schr\"{o}dinger equation.
