Abstract

The discrete one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operator is studied in the finite interval of length N=2MN=2 M with the Dirichlet boundary conditions and an arbitrary potential even with respect to the spacial reflections. It is shown, that the eigenvalues of such a discrete Schr\"odinger operator (Hamiltonian), which is represented by the 2M×2M2M\times2M tridiagonal matrix, satisfy a set of polynomial constrains. The most interesting constrain, which is explicitly obtained, leads to the effective Coulomb interaction between the Hamiltonian eigenvalues. In the limit MM\to\infty, this constrain induces the requirement, which should satisfy the scattering date in the scattering problem for the discrete Schr\"odinger operator in the half-line. We obtain such a requirement in the simplest case of the Schr\"odinger operator, which does not have bound and semi-bound states, and which potential has a compact support.
