Show affiliationsThis is the first in a series of papers on scattering theory for one-dimensional Schrödinger operators with highly singular potentials
. In this paper, we study Miura potentials q associated with positive Schrödinger operators that admit a Riccati representation q = u' + u2 for a unique
. Such potentials have a well-defined reflection coefficient r(k) that satisfies |r(k)| < 1 and determines u uniquely. We show that the scattering map
is real analytic with real-analytic inverse. To do so, we exploit a natural complexification of the scattering map associated with the ZS-AKNS system. In subsequent papers, we will consider larger classes of potentials including singular potentials with bound states.
