Scattering zippers and their spectral theory
A scattering zipper is a system obtained by concatenation of scattering events with equal even number of incoming and out going channels. The associated scattering zipper operator is the unitary equivalent of Jacobi matrices with matrix entries and generalizes Blatter–Browne and Chalker–Coddington models and CMV matrices. Weyl discs are analyzed …
