Abstract. We consider non-scattering energies and transmission eigenvalues of compactly supported potentials in the hyperbolic spaces Hn. We prove that in H2 a corner bounded by two hyperbolic lines intersecting at an angle smaller than 180° always scatters, and that one of the lines may be replaced by a horocycle. In higher dimensions, we obtain similar results for corners bounded by hyperbolic hyperplanes intersecting each other pairwise orthogonally, and that one of the hyperplanes may be replaced by a horosphere. The corner scattering results are contrasted by proving discreteness and existence results for the related transmission eigenvalue problems.
