Abstract
Asymptotics of Resonances for Radial Potential Scattering in Hyperbolic Space
It is shown that for scattering by a spherically symmetric potential with
compact support in Hn+1 , the resonance counting function N (r) is asymp-
totic to Crn+1. C is found explicitly, and is shown to depend only on the
dimension and the radius of support of the potential.
