| contents | In general, discrete eigenstates such as resonances are represented by poles of the scattering amplitude, analytically continued to the complex energy plane. In multi-channel scattering, however, the Riemann surface becomes more complicated, leading to the emergence of various types of poles with distinct characteristics. In this study, we investigate the relationship between poles located on different Riemann sheets and analyze how they influence the observable spectra. In particular, we clarify the effect of the decay channel on the pole trajectory, where an $s$-wave bound state evolves into a resonance via a virtual state. It is shown that the quasibound state pole below the threshold does not continuously connected to the resonance pole above the threshold, and a kind of interchange of poles occurs. As a concrete example, we consider several models based on the chiral unitary approach that describe meson-baryon scattering amplitudes involving the $Ξ(1620)$ and $Ξ(1690)$ resonances. We examine their impact on the $πΞ$ invariant mass distributions in the $Ξ_{c} \to ππΞ$ decay, discussing how the pole structure manifests itself in experimental observables. |
