Abstract

We study the scattering theory of fermion systems subject to a smooth local perturbation with a non-vanishing odd part. We introduce a modified free fermion fields which have an appropriate commutation relations with the free Fock fermion fields. We construct the wave operators using the modified field and prove asymptotic completeness. Our work extends former results on Hilbert space asymptotic completeness.
